It is not only the creation of a rune that matters - there is the ritual that pours magical element and intent into the rune. Simply put, if you paint a rune on a stone right now and toss it at me, most likely it will have no effect. Invoking a rune means you personalize it and the results it gives are clearer, more accurate and more powerful."
"Well, you know a bit more about them, now! Questions are good stuff. Perplexity and confusion are only the beginning of wisdom." She smiled at the boy.
Cassandra listened to what the teacher had to say, personalize it huh? She looked over to her tent and the rocks with the runes that she had painstakingly carved onto the rocks that formed a fence around the tent. So she turned to the teacher and asked "Professor, how can we personalize a rune? Is adding glitters to it ok or something?"
