To keep something in? Her eyes widened at the thought of what could have been held inside that would need a bind rune to keep it in. She shuddered and goose bumps slowly covered her arms. She hadn’t thought of it that way.

She pulled her parchment out and wrote her name at the top. It was time for her to create her own bind rune. She quickly flipped through her book to pick out the runes to be used. It would need to have meaning, not just simply be two or three of her favorites crammed together. She also wondered if she would need an object for the bind rune to be associated with. All of the bind runes they had talked about in class were attached to an object.



That was a mess. As soon as she finished writing the last line on her parchment, she immediately regretted even starting the paper. There wasn't enough time left in class for her to start over, so her assignment would need to be turned in as is. That was when she realized she should have created a bind rune on her paper to help it earn top marks.

After collecting her things, she proceeded to hand in her assignment. "Thank you for the class, Headmistress. It was very interesting. Although, I do believe I might be having nightmares thinking about what could have once been held inside by that strap, if that's what the bind rune was doing. I guess we will never know."

She gave a quick, nervous smile, turned, and headed out the door. It was time to get back to studying and attempting to catch up in all of her classes.
