Further to this, a number of Rainy Day activity pages present lively and entertaining things to do once the magical state has been attained, including such popular pastimes as divination, etheric travel and the conjuring of a colourful multitude of spirits, deities, dead people and infernal entities from the pit, all of whom are sure to become your new best friends.
