About this listen
Have you ever watched the Witcher and wondered if it was actually ever a real job? What if the answer was yes, but in addition to casting out demons and other foul creatures, you could also control the weather, summon dragons and all manners of spirits, speak every language, and cure disease? The job description you just read is for the position of solomonar-- and there are still people alive today who met these strange wizards in their lifetime. So pull up and listen to some lore and firsthand accounts about one of history's strangest jobs.
