You can combine different runes into one galdr to suit your purposes but for today we will stick with the one galdr per rune, much like the example given a moment ago with:

"fehu fehu fehu

He fell quiet and looked around the room, eyeing the fehu runes that were carved around the place, some of them appeared to glow slightly but that was to be expected as many of them he'd carved himself.

"Can anyone think of how a basic galdr like this is similar to the Intaglio spell method that we practiced with our wands?"

Freya looked up from her craved Rune to the Professor. He asked about what? The similarity between galdr and Intaglio spell? She raised her hand before she answer the Professor question "I think the similarity between the two of them are they both depend by the the repetition of intent?" she wasn't pretty sure with her answer and now she could feel her head hurts because she think to much. Runes definitely not her things.
