The old books do not hedge. An operation performed off its hour does not work poorly - it does not work. And then they leave you with hours that stretch and shrink with the season and your latitude, and no means of finding yours. We find them: to the minute, from real sunrise where you actually stand. Then we print the procedure, so that you need never ask again.
The Key's hours are unequal - twelve between sunrise and sunset, twelve between sunset and sunrise - so their length moves with the season and with your latitude. No table in a book can give you yours. These are computed from real sunrise at your coordinates. From the specimen, cast for Manila:
| Window | Magical name | Which hour | Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fri 31 Jul · 05:40–06:44 | Yayn | 1st of the day | 64 min |
| Fri 31 Jul · 13:07–14:11 | Thaine | 8th of the day | 64 min |
| Fri 31 Jul · 20:19–21:15 | Thanu | 3rd of the night | 56 min |
| Sat 01 Aug · 02:52–03:48 | Agla | 10th of the night | 56 min |
The guide also prints the whole procedure, so you can solve any hour, anywhere, on any date it does not cover. That part needs nothing but a sunrise time and arithmetic.
Every claim is split three ways and the three are never allowed to blur:
The old books hold that an operation performed off its hour does not merely work less well - it does not work at all.
The hours themselves are computed from sunrise at your coordinates. Checkable against any almanac.
That the hours are real arithmetic is checkable. That they carry virtue is not. We compute the first and refuse to sell the second.
Your document is stamped with how many of the Key's seven conditions were actually observed, how many cannot be verified, and the line nothing is claimed. No reading you can buy anywhere prints its own score.
Three fields. No account, no quiz, no upsell page.
Your document is generated and checked by hand before it goes out.
Print-grade. Yours to keep, reprint and hand on - no platform, no login, no expiry.
A kit can be cast on someone else's name and city - the hours computed where they live, not where you do.
If any number in your document is wrong - a longitude, an hour, a citation, a cell on the square - tell us and you get a full refund, and the correction is published in the journal with your order number on it.
What is deliberately not guaranteed: an outcome. No sigil, hour or placement is claimed to cause anything, and no refund is owed for a life that carried on as normal.
No. The Key's conditions are quoted, in the text's own words with chapter citations, so you can see exactly what the operation asked of its operator. Whether you perform any of it is entirely your decision, and the charge panel is left blank because Book II says to leave it blank. Nothing in the document is instruction.
Because the hours are unequal. Daylight is divided into twelve and night into twelve, so an hour of the day runs long in summer and short in winter, and both depend on your latitude. A table printed in a book is somebody else's sky. Yours is solved from real sunrise and sunset where you are.
Nothing is claimed. Your sheet is stamped with how many of the Key's seven conditions were actually observed and how many cannot be verified at all - so you are told the score rather than sold a result. The arithmetic of the hours is checkable; the virtue attached to them is not, and the document says so on its face.
Ten pages, with the hours solved for where you stand.
