Priming Magick

Certain Boons require a sacrifice of magick to provide its effects. This is called Prime, which on the magick ui appears as a purple bar that indicates how much magick has been reduce by the Boon. For example, if Melinoë has 100 magick and picks Aphrodite's Secret Crush which costs 20 magick to prime it, she'll only have 80 magick left.
