You're crazy. Get a Grief cleanse soon.
Mmm... how does it go? Hope -> Magic -> Despair -> Grief?
Would it be possible to reverse this? Make everything flow backwards... change the rules, that's how PMMM ends.
Would something happen if we took our Grief, and tried to... separate the 'magic' from the 'mundane'? Destroy the 'despair' while keeping the energy?
Ordering our Grief to become Hope has come up a few times, but while I'm leery of what the Grief would do with that order, I think there's a right idea in trying to reverse the order things go.
