On my recent journeys within
the Cthonic Remains, this ancient aosdic glyph gave me many a shock. I
thought I would conduct an experiment of some sorts, so I brought all of
my necklaces, each of which posessed a different element.
Fire
Water
Wind
Earth
I wore my necklace embued with the element sal, and wandered into the Second Yard of the House Macabre, and asked a young Rogue to tell me the element of the first creature I saw. I began to chant, and with all of my might, cast this dark mark, and to my surprise, the creature's flesh vanished. All that remained was its wrotting, fleshy corpse.
I thought my eyes had decieved
me, as I'd heard many tales about this spell, all of which I thought I
had just proven wrong.
Not too astoundingly, the creature survived, so I replaced my necklace with the latter, sal, and blasted, and sure enough, the creature perished.
I tell this lore to aid
many youthful aislings who may still learn this eldritch mark, as it is
very difficult to understand.
A
wise Kobold once told me,
" If it is this mark you
seek, all of your traits, you must peak. Your strength, wisdom, and intelligence
must bear, the same as dexterity, and constitution shall bear. All of which
shall be peaked, at a minimum of forty." His words proved very useful,
as they helped me to understand the power of the ancient glyphs.
