The Binding Hall

Type  ·  Academy hall

Institution  ·  VAVA

Discipline  ·  Contract magic and oath-craft

The Binding Hall is where VAVA teaches the disciplines of formal promises: contract magic, oath-craft, witnessed obligation, and the theory of words that become harder to break than they were to speak.

Character

The Hall's work matters in any city, but it matters more in Venturia. Promises here already feel heavier than elsewhere. The Binding Hall studies how to measure, use, and survive that weight.
