The Path of Nahema

I figured you would have lots to say Bruce. Keith 1:45 MST 10/25/2018


First let me say, you did a lot of work on this path and that deserves its recognition. The first question that comes to mind: "Is this hedge magic or blood magic?"

If this is a path, then why write them all as rituals? And some of your rituals could be combined to a better effect. But don't let any of these questions or comments detract from what you have achieved thus far. Creating paths is hard work. -- "The Magister 00:49, 26 October 2018 (MDT)"
