From the Writer and Proprietor of The Badger, Lady Eriape

A Special Pamplet

Free To All

On the Proper conduct of Wizards and The Generosity of Lady Eriape as Contrasted to the Arch-Maguses Presently in Cheliax

While Cheliax now boasts a Multitude of Arch Maguses, there seemeth to be a Dearth of Generosity among these Exalted Folk towards the Common Laundry-Wizard. All Know that Lady Eriape, Generous and Kind, Has In Past Pamphlets Distributed A Clever First Circle Spell of her Own Devising. Who among the So-Called Great and Good now gathered for their Constitutional Convention has done Similar? None! These so-called Archmages of Cheliax, in their Thoughtlessness, have not only Neglected to match Our Generosity but have Compounded their Folly by Neglecting to invite Us to their Putrid Gathering. These Oversights speaks Volumes of their Lack of Wisdom and Foresight.   

We do hereby CALL Upon all Great Wizards of the Third Circle and above, those who no longer Hunger for the Spells of the First Circle to Demonstrate their Worth and committment to the Well-Being of Cheliax. We Exort these Wizards to write to the Badger one of their spells, that We might freely Distribute them for the Benefit of the Common Laundry-Wizard

Showing Eriape the Weal of the Great Wizards, she will Print Instructions for Another Spell, To provide the Effect of the Common Coffee, and Many other Effects that gladden the Hearts of Men and Even the Undying, Below In this Pamplet!

Another Badger with instructions on a spell!  It takes some time and effort to convert written instructions into a form she can inscribe in her spellbook.  The spell is apparently Transmutation, not Estella's best school, but at least it isn't a fucking conjuration spell.  She works through the spellcraft carefully before even attempting to prepare the spell.  And... the spell can only target the caster and is flexible with multiple possible applications.  No fucking way is Estella trying this spell on herself, not after she learned about the side effects of Eriape's Preserve (i.e. completely poisoning the food it is used on).  If she had a high circle cleric she trusted... like breath of life and break enchantment and raise dead circle she might consider trying it.  But not for anything less.  Well, this was a letdown.

She considers making a warning pamphlet, but any wizard skilled enough to convert written instructions to a castable spell should have the spellcraft to know it is self-only.  And anyone trying a self-only spell from Lady Eriape deserves what they get.  …maybe she can talk a higher circle wizard into gambling on it and telling her the results?

Élie's other other other other other project is getting wizards to share their spells more. This is the first time she's seen one do it so widely and out of spite. "Destroy Lady Eriape" just got moved two or three lines lower on the queen's very long to-do list. (It's already pretty far down. Someone else will probably beat her to it.)
