"Algiz, it is the main rune of protection." Botros tapped his wand on his chin pondering this option. "I think it would be really hard to benefit from this rune's energy in the healing terms. It is possible, but you have to be really excellent to wield support and strength from Algiz opposed to protection." Unless he meant it to protect the bracelet from being tampered with... which was a very good idea.

He sat quietly for a few moments, willing the heat in his face to subside......before carefully putting his quill back into position. Embarrassed or not, Gabe didn't wànt his notes to suffer. So, the additions began in earnest.....before he'd worked himself into answering again.

His voice was a bit lower, as well.

"Laguz...is water." Water had the ability to heal.....In fact, it was considered sacred in some Ancient cultures because of it.

Blush.

SPOILER!!: Runes notes!

Botros simply didn't hear the boy. He smiled at him encouragingly to raise his voice for this old man's ears to hear.

Sigh.

For good measure AJ took some notes. It was true that all of the information was in her book, but maybe if she condensed the notes it would help her study down the road. Another rune?

More flipping happened. Her fingers scanned the pages until she stopped on one that looked promising. "What about Ansuz? It's supposed to give you blessings, inspirations and stuff like that." It had to make the other runes more powerful when combined. Totes made sense to her.

"Ansuz would be a good combination, yes. It can replace Jera, in my opinion, Ansuz is the father rune of other runes, some might say." He beamed at her.

More runes then? Ummmm... the Hufflepuff thought for a moment, trying NOT to look at his book, because he wanted to try and remember this without any help, as practice for when he sat his OWLs. Eventually, he raised his hand.

"Could argue, for, uhh... Hagalaz," he offered, now tapping the end of his quill on his parchment. "'Cause it can be used for removing unwanted or, like... destructive influences, which is technically what healing is. If it's in the Healing Charm, it could be used to remove the bad stuff so that the healing can happen and the positive can sort of... flourish?" Maybe? Maaaayyybbeeee? "And it can't be inverted either, I think, like Jera and Sowilo. So the Charm would still be all powerful, too."

Aaah, "Great answer, Tobias, absolutely great and merely for the explanation you offered." Botros gave him a light clap of his own. "As for Hagalaz, if you manage to invoke it with that intention clear in your mind, then I'm sure it will serve the purpose you want it to serve." He nodded. Great answer.

He paused from his note making, took a bit of time to think then raised his hand. "Maybe Dagaz, Professor.'' The rune had a correspondence with revelation and hope. Annnnd back to making notes.

"Dagaz helps us get an effective result, yes." He nodded with a smile.

"Hmmm. If you could explain more why, dear." He wanted to know the way his students' minds worked.

It seemed to fit for him. He only gave one though to let others find one. He found a second one but he figured he would stick to his first answer.

"Yes, great answer! Eihwaz, in the explanation that you provided, would be a great contribution to this healing charm." Kudos to the Hufflepuff!

Zeke's hand shot up into the air, "Teiwaz, Professor?" PLEASE SAY YEESSSS, he very much liked sounding smart.

"Teiwaz's another great answer!" Botros beamed at the boy. "It can strengthen the chain as well, just as Uruz does. Its only weakness if that it can be inverted, and that makes it less stable than Uruz." Which was why the ancient people used Uruz instead of Teiwaz.

He hadn't even read about the rune yet, but wanted to say it before anyone else so that he wouldn't have to find yet another one! It was a perfect strategy and-- "Actually..... Nevermind," he quickly corrected himself after reading through the rest of the explanation and yeah. Okay. Maybe not Wunjo. Maybe not.

"Wunjo is not a bad option at all." Ab smiled softly. "It can be invoked with the will and intention of giving credibility to the other runes' work. It can guarantee their success, if I daresay. But again, its ability to be inverted makes it unstable and thus could break the chain of runes pretty easily." Still a good answer.

SO. Botros clapped his hands loudly to get the attention of everyone. "Great answers everyone, our ancient people saw it fit to carve this exact chain of runes on the healing bracelet, so we're going to go with that for now." Smiling at them all, even the confused ones. "To make this bracelet work, we need to activate those runes, make them alive and magical so-to-speak. Anyone can tell me how we do that?" Hmm? For the younger students' sake.

Water had the ability to heal.....In fact, it was considered sacred in some Ancient cultures because of it. Blush. SPOILER!!: Runes notes! Gabriel P. Banner Ravenclaw Fifth Year March 5th, 2085 Ancient Runes classroom Ancient Runes: ?? Potted plants??? Artifact Pattern Sowilō Uruz Sowilō Jera Sowilō Jera Sowilō Uruz Sowilō Rune Meanings Sowilō: It represents the sun, it is an endless source of energy and brilliance: a renewal of hope and achievement. The sun's rays offer vital healing energy, and the appearance of this rune often indicates a positive resolution to a health issue, or a time of successful recovery. Uruz: The rune of strength, connecting the runes that are on the edge. It's there for this specific reason, to strengthen this chain of runes and make it almost unbreakable. You cannot invert Uruz, that makes it invincible when it's the chain holder. Jera: Jera is about change, a growing and fertile change. It helps the healing rune, Swoilo, get rid of the malady and let its healing energy flow into the target be it a human or a creature - anything with life in it. Additional Runes Berkana: Like the birch tree coming to life from a seed planted in the earth, Berkana represents a new beginning and is also a powerful birth rune. Laguz: Laguz represents the power of water and its easy flowing nature. We must learn to “go with the flow” when this rune shows up in a reading so that we can take full advantage of our powers. Botros simply didn't hear the boy. He smiled at him encouragingly to raise his voice for this old man's ears to hear.
