Runes And Inscriptions[3]
[Ace POV],
I was at a loss for a few seconds looking at the materials arranged around me because I didn't know where to begin.
Although basic alchemy knowledge provided me with the steps to create a rune, it did not specify which step to begin with.
It's similar to how a painter knows the steps to making a good drawing, but each painter must decide where to begin.
It's similar to how each cook prepares the same food differently.
The comparison with rune making is similar.
There were already steps to making a rune in front of me, but it was still up to me where to begin.
I could choose to begin by processing the materials, or I could begin by visualising the rune I want to create.
It still ended with what I'll start with in the end.
After a few seconds of deliberation, I decided to begin with visualising the rune.
