In the Power of Prayer by Random100 the narrator explains how they wished the world was filled with spells and charms but it isn’t.  All they can do is pray.  The narrator experiences seeing their grandmother have a stroke first hand and how they pray for her quick recover.  Their prayer is answered. I agree that there aren’t spells and charms in the world and that pray may possibly work.  When my grandma was sick, I prayed for her to get better and she recovered quite quickly.  That instance was an example for me where I could relate to the narrator.  There are plenty of people in my town whom are quite religious.  They’d easily understand prayer over spells and charms and probably have many times where prayer worked for them in hard times.
