"That's the power of a basic rune," she declared, her voice suddenly taking on the weight of an actual professor..
"Runes are far older than spellcraft. In fact, they are the ancient language that the first mages, our ancestors in magic used before spellcraft was even discovered. Spells became the dominant form of magic because they are faster, more flexible in combat, and easier to standardize. But despite that, they could never outmatch the versatility of runes. That is why runes remain a major field of study even today."
Azel listened, why wouldn't he? She actually sounded very credible right now… If one walked in, Mynes could even be a real professor.
