The Ice Does Not Forgive Curse

the–word–witch:

A pop culture curse inspired by a quote from Six of Crows by the lovely @lbardugo: “The water hears and understands, but the ice does not forgive.”

Meant for abusers and/or other toxic people who hurt you.

What you need

–
A glass of water

– Pen and paper

– Several ice cubes/chunks

– A place to pour water and
smash ice

Instructions

–
Write the person’s name on the paper and place it where you can
pour the water on it and smash
the ice on it.

– Pour the water onto it,
imagining the knowledge of what they did to you washing over them and
drowning them in the realization.

–
While pouring, say, “With
the force of rivers and the force of seas, understand
what you have done to me.”

– Let the water sit for a
moment, focusing on them having this terrible epiphany.

– Smash the ice onto the paper
individually, imagine each one as a wave of guilt hitting the person
like a ton of bricks, knocking the wind out of them.

–
As you do this say, “With
the force of ice and the force of frost, your peace of mind shall pay
the cost.”

– Concentrate on them being
affected by the guilt until the ice melts.

– Rip the paper up and throw
it away to close the spell.
