THE GRIMOIRE’S BLOG
Some knowledge won’t be contained to tidy categories or neat correspondences. It slips through the cracks between “elemental” and “esoteric,” wanders off from its ritual circle, or appears in a dream with no known origin.
That’s what this space is for—the stray sparks, the experiments, the midnight notes in the margins.
Here, you’ll find everything from field notes and folklore digressions to rants, reviews, and revelations that didn’t quite fit elsewhere in the Archives. Some posts may evolve into full entries; others may simply linger here like whispers that never asked for a title.
So wander freely, seeker. The shelves end here—but the story does not.
