Museum babysitting problematic wizard (My secret life as a villian)

When I was younger, I used to wonder how supervillains got away with being bad guys.

Didn't I just scream Professional Menace in my younger days?

Being older and more experienced, today I know it is because it's serves their interests for you to be a villain. It's not that they can't see how corrupt you are; it's that if they admit to it, then they would have to see their own darkness also. Better that they reflect their darkness onto you, giving you power to work their underground dealings, ruling luck. 

I keep thinking that the day will come when Khari will take a look at the growing "Necronomicon" study book that I am creating for the Justice Forty-Two Project, and she will pull the plug. Scrub the shuttle launch at the last moment; save the school teacher's life; not go for the we must do this, or else we suffer detention as a nation option. 

But then again, I understand everything that I am putting into my Book of Shadows.

Or at least, the skeleton of what it is . . . Edgar give the students the tour of the photos.

"Oh look, they uploaded in backwards order of what you wanted--hehe."

Runes and Eight Forgotten Gods and Goddesses

Edgar and Numberian Runes--AngloSaxon 

Forty-Two Judges of the Dead

Half of another Version--Papyrus of Ani.

Look, English text for the Egyptian impaired. 

More Papyrus of Ani--our source for the Forty-Two Judges.

Another version of the 42 Judges. 

They are like a county song--"and the Forty-Two gave my wife, the dog, the car, the gun, and the gin"

If you disliked that joke, you can test it--GD/RC style. 

Like the cheat sheet for the element calling, ThAM.

Meat and Taters meet the Forty-Two.

Serious nukings will come out of here.

One of only Four--much left to do.

Who left the Enochian barn door open?!

Oh, thank god, we have the Banners to protect us!

For what are we being protected from?

The Forty-Two and their study book forms.

Seriously, this boy has dark days, with glue sticks. 

Bad horrible notes . . . corrupt, do not trust . . . they make no sense.

Scream a little, if the oath was real, some would.

How did this 42 get here?

Some Norse stuff--in case, the Forty-Two doesn't work.

Invocation of Horus . . . and some Saxon runes.

More Norse stuff. 

For ritual, I like to have a little handwritten. 

Hermetic Golden Dawn . . . Runes . . . how does this notebook exist?

Magick always carries a price.

Thanks Edgar for giving the tour of my power book, the dread tome of study, the source of all sorcery, the scroll Arabic Necronomicon, Egyptian Zelator Hermetic Revised Edition.

Oh you laugh, but I still have to train Khari. Or at least, pretend, that I was going to. Hence I still have to finish putting in pages into the Golden Dawn 2025-26 Study Book.

Edgar says he's gonna color all these.

So besides doing an expansion of the Forty-Two based on Greatly Honored Frater NOM (Westcott) and the Papyrus of Ani, we will also be focused on the God-Forms found in the Zelator (1=10) ritual of the Hermetic Golden Dawn. Mainly, because I found my copy of Z-5: Secret Teachings of the Golden Dawn--Book II--The Zelator Ritual 1=10 Zalewski, Pat and Chris (1992). A copy that has seen better days . . . flood damage? Anyways, it can be photocopied, without damaging my deluxe leather copy of the Bible, so to speak. 

Anyways, being a villain, I wonder how I was going to charge my Power Book properly. 

If I was the Green Goblin, I would kidnap someone, find a bridge, wire the book to a nuke--you know, the standard drill . . . but we are in Denver, we have fewer choices. 

Or do we?

Actually, I have a lake . . . and a bridge in view of a church . . . oh a zoo, and a museum.

You laugh . . . look at Google Maps and where I live, it's no accident; it's planned.

Thanks, Google Maps.

I am within walking distance of Denver Zoo, Museum of Natural Science, and a lake. I am a nature witch living in an urban setting, making do with the best that civilization can give me. Used to be Cheseman Park when I was associated with Quantum Alchemy. 

Today, I would be running rituals out of the museum. You laugh. 

"Honey, I am gonna to renew our museum membership. They are open to nine on Fridays. My new man has a roommate, and we need some alone time. Do you mind? Here's money."

Do I mind that at the end of this year and a day Justice Forty-Two Working that only I will be reaping the karma for it . . . at this point, what can I say? I was wondering how to sneak off and charge this book, thrice at the museum, lake and bridge. Giddy up.

I am Morgana Draconis. I serve the Goddess. And I being sent to the museum.

Right on schedule. 

Well, as long as the client does not have to get her hands dirty, it's all fair. But I do hope that she understands that there will be a price to be paid, and a benefit earned, one that she will have a different share of than I do; the Forty-Two will see to that--the timeline is already seeing it weave itself out. Khari gets to be polyamourous again . . . and I get what I always get . . . c'mon children, laugh with me--it's funny, I am villain, after all. He, he.
