Asher plopped himself down along the wall of the fifth floor corridor to work on his Gandr. Sure, he could have found a more out of the way place, but it was quiet and that is what he wanted.

Pulling out his wand and Gandr, Asher took his parchment with his notes on it and began reading the next steps instructions. He reached back into his bag and pulled out his red lead along with his linseed oil to redden the runes.

As he combined the red lead and linseed oil, he chanted "Laukaz, Laukaz, Laukaz,"After they were combined, he pulled his galdrstaf out of his bag to apply it to the runes.

While applying the prepared reddening to the runes, Asher chanted about the runes and their powers. It took him quiet some time, and he continued working in the corridor until it was nearly dark.
