Over the past month, working with different parties had taught Frost far more about runes than he had expected.
Within their inscriptions were sigils that governed power output, energy channelling, and the element involved, though their arrangements varied greatly depending on the caster and the type of affinity.
He had begun to recognise their functions by watching how they behaved during activation and comparing them with the effects they produced.
That didn't mean he could read them, unfortunately.
Recognising what part of an inscription handled the flow of energy was one thing; understanding the symbols and writings that made it work was something else entirely.
Most of what he had learned remained useless to him in practice, but he was still pleased with the discovery.
At least he now had something specific to study instead of staring at the entire inscription and hoping understanding would somehow fall into his head.
