Winged Barb

TYPE: Curse

FOR USE WHEN: The villagers threatened to completely purge the dragonflies because the witches didn't comply to the newest insect management laws.

INGREDIENTS: Grief, a parent's womb, dragonfly egg flattened inside a book, and whisker from a tomcat.

RECIPE: Wash the ingredients in the first snowmelt of the year, with best results when it's in an area where logging operations recently took place. Ensure the spirits are called upon so that you properly acknowledge their resilience to man's efforts at annihilation. Should they be generous, groundwater will rise and permeate your washing.

INTENDED EFFECT/DURATION: To be absorbed when the targeted learns of why they are truly nothing compared to a dragonfly's brilliance- a matter of conjured perspective. Upon this realization, their life will be drained of all meaning in an instant.

CASTER'S NOTES: I had the privilege of putting this to use against the executor's grandson. It failed to drain his life of all meaning, but accomplished much the same by turning him into a womb.
