Question;
But first some context.
Person A performs this ritual for themselves. But Person A has done something really heinous to Person B and Person B has been traumatised by Person A's actions. Person B casts a curse to rid themselves of the trauma of Person A's actions, and get revenge.
Will this protection spell still work to protect Person A?
My thought is the ritual is designed to do what it says it does. (See beginning of the original post at the top of this thread.)
"THIS IS SOMETHING ANYONE CAN USE. IT IS A MAINSTAY BLOCK AGAINST MANY OF THE COMMON & NOT-SO-COMMON THREATS IN FORMS OF MAGIC, ENERGY, SPIRIT, OR ENTITY.
PROTECTION RITUAL, PROVIDES ARMOR FOR PERSON PERFORMING RITUAL PERMANENTLY AGAINST ALL FORMS OF CURSES, HEXES, EVIL EYES, MALICIOUS MAGIC, EVIL OR DANGEROUS SPIRITS & ENTITIES, AND ALL FORMS OF NEGATIVE INFLUENCE. THIS IS THE ULTIMATE IN ARMOR PROTECTION & WILL KEEP YOU SAFE FROM ANY INTRUDING MAGIC, ENERGIES, SPIRITS, AND/OR ENTITIES."
As can be seen, it says 'provides armour permanently [...] against all forms of curses [...]'. It doesn't mention there are exceptions. And that armour doesn't seem to be transactional - ie based on whether or not you've ever done wrong to someone.
It also doesn't mention karma. My understanding of what others understand about karma is the effects one's actions are part of an entirely separate mechanism to what this ritual protects against.
