Everything I know about grief seeds

What grief seeds are

Grief seeds are soul gems for witches. They are created when a soul gem contains too much despair. They are sometimes called a witches egg. A grief seed that has absorbed too much despair from a soul gem can also hatch a witch. Remember to give used ones to Kyubey!

What they do and why we want them

Grief seeds are used to clean soul gems. If a magi uses magic, their soul gem will get dirty, and they will be less powerful. A similar thing happens when feeling strong, bad emotions. It is important to clean your soul gem because it helps you stay strong and happy. Soul gems that are not cleaned are very dangerous. You could become weak and more vulnerable to witches, or you could turn into a witch yourself, which is a terrible fate!

How to get grief seeds

Witches have grief seeds, and defeating them is the best way to obtain them. However, not all witches give grief seeds, and no familiars give grief seeds. It is best to assume the worst and try not to use too much magic in case you don't get grief seeds when you were hoping to. Personally, I think it's better to target witches and ignore the familiars if your soul gem is extremely dirty. You won't be able to protect anyone if you are a witch. Another way I've seen puella magis get grief seeds is to provide services, such as being a coordinator. You might be able to trade something with another magi in exchange for grief seeds.
