4. Easier Casting

It's worth noting that casting spells through the Mirror of Evaluation has a few drawbacks.Most obviously, it's a massive hassle drawing those two patterns every time.Potentially more importantly though, any spell casthappening through the mirror can only execute at most 64 circles.That really isn't a lot!

This is where Wands come in.As briefly mentioned in the first chapter,wands execute any spell inscribed onto them when right-clicked.

What's inscribing you may ask? Actually, you've already partially interacted with it.Notulist's Delusion, used in chapter two, is used to read an inscribed spell from an item.This works on Scrolls because a spell written on them technically counts as being inscribed.

Spells can actually be inscribed onto any item,though only Scrolls and Mirrors let you directly edit them.

Writing a spell to an item can be done by using Notulist's Ploy.Similarly to Grand Stratagem, it only takes one input, and provides no output.

You can use a spell like the following in a mirror to read and inscribe a spell.

First draw the small pattern while holding your spell,then swap to the item you want to inscribe, and draw the other pattern.

Inscribing a spell onto a Wand will give it an enchanted glint,and show the inscribed spell in its tooltip.

When you use your new Wand,a Spell Slot is consumed while the spell runs,allowing the spell to run for as long as needed to complete.

Combining all this, try inscribing the following spell onto a Wand:

Once you have it inscribed, try it out to see what it does.After that, try looking up the tricks to see how!
