Download and read online ebook The Darkest Arts Revealed write by Elaina Lewis. This book was released on 2020-05-08. The Darkest Arts Revealed available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This book is a complete overview of the three most dangerous and infamous spells in Harry Potter lore, commonly called the Unforgivable Curses. The spells are categorized by severity, from least severe to most severe, i.e., starting with the Imperius Curse, followed by the Cruciatus Curse, and ending with the Killing Curse. The nature of the Unforgivable Curses is described, as in why they are unforgivable in the first place. Each spell is then described: a brief history of each spell from suspected origins to present day uses, how each spell works, notable people who performed these spells and on whom, and possible ways of defending oneself against these spells. The aim of this book is to dispel or reinforce rumors regarding the Unforgivable Curses, as well as to provide a well-rounded understanding of the most notable curses typically not taught nor talked about in great length in the wizarding community. A further aim is to address how these notorious spells stand out as truly unique among the numerous spells that currently exist in Harry Potter lore and why they should be studied to further detail.

Finch Chamberlin is the newest transfer student to the ultra-competitive Ulalume Academy... but she's also not what she seems. Months before school started, Finch and her parents got into an accident that should have left her dead at the bottom of the river. But something monstrous, and ancient, and terrifying, wouldn't let her drown. Finch doesn't know why she woke up after her heart stopped, but since dying she's felt a constant pull from the school and the surrounding town of Rainwater, like something on the island is calling to her. Selena St. Clair sees right through Finch, and she knows something is seriously wrong with her. But despite Selena's suspicion, she feels drawn to Finch and has a sinking feeling that from now on the two will be inexplicably linked to one another. One night Finch, Selena, and her friends accidentally summon a carnivorous creature of immense power in the depths of the school. It promises to grant every desire the girls have kept locked away in their insecure hearts—beauty, power, adoration—in exchange for a price: human body parts. But as the cost of their wanting becomes more deadly, Finch and Selena must learn to work together to stop the horror they unleashed, before it consumes the entire island.

If you had the power within your reach to insure your own immortality, would you risk all to grasp it? Think about it. No longer would you plead for the mercy of others. No longer would you bow to invisible masters. No longer would you struggle for table scraps. You could become master of your own destiny. You could become as God. Drawing on the findings of science, religion, sociology, psychology, philosophy, mythology, history, ancient texts, and metaphysics, The Dark Arts of Immortality explains how to harness and augment the energy of our innate drives. Through personal combat, sexual fantasy, and mystic rituals the death drive (mortido), sex drive (libido), and growth drive (physis) can provide doorways to supra-consciousness. These core altered states of being (fury, ecstasy, and exaltation) grant preternatural physical, mental, and spiritual abilities. The synthesis of these attributes will elevate personal power in this world and allow one to manifest a divine Being in the afterlife.
