Today, we're going to learn about the real track and capture charms. They're not traditionally used by the MLE because they require excellence in the Ancient Runes field and it's usually time-consuming. Though, I do believe they use the capture charm for extra security in the red-code cells." Red code? Super important and secure? Get it?
"So, to make a tracking charm, we need to draw the runes in a circular series, like so."
"Uruz is used to strengthen the Runic charm, and to boost the other runes' magic. We have Ansuz as the main rune, repeated four times, and it is because it's a rune of signals and communication. It follows and tracks the magical signals or energy of the wanted person, or object if it was powerfully magical." He paused before continuing, "Then we have Perthro, the rune of mystery and hidden things. It directs the other runes to look for the hidden magic and leave the uncovered magic out of the tracking processing. Then in the middle..." He pointed at the rune. "... we have a combination of Raidho and Isa."
"I have two questions for you. One, why did I draw the runes as a circle? Not a triangle or a straight line?" He was counting on his fingers. "Two, what do the runes Raidho and Isa, bound together like that, mean or have to offer to this tracking charm?" It was really easy if they looked into their textbooks. [/indent]
Right. She was following every word Professor Botros was saying.
Okay, so far she was following. She listed all the runes and why they were needed, and it made perfect sense. Total perfect sense. Absolute sense. She was so getting this!
No, she wasn't.
She turned to her text book and flipped through it. Nothing. She was so stupid. She didn't even know where to start looking. Feeling a loss, trying not to cry from frustration, she put her hand up anyway. "
Professor, do the runes arranged in a circle represent an unbroken circle? Or perhaps, does it represent time?" That could be it, couldn't it? No, probably not. And why were Raidho and Isa bound together? "
Perhaps Raidho and Isa are bound together to strengthen their effects." Yes, just like marriage. The rings represent a bond, didn't they? And a man and a woman became one, bound and strong.
Oh no, she would have to hire a tutor.
