Mirael & Galen
Mirael
I stumbled upon a fragment of the Astral Loom's sigil—its runes seem to echo a forgotten mechanism. Do you think it could bridge the spellcraft of our age with the lost engineering of the First Age?
Galen
That’s a tantalizing thought. If the sigil’s glyphs line up with the mechanics we’ve lost from the First Age, it could be a key—like a cipher that translates spell‑threads into mechanical motion. The real question is whether the fragment contains enough of the sequence to reconstruct the whole algorithm, or if we’re only looking at a side‑effect of an older device. Either way, it’s worth mapping the runes against the known schematics of the Loom’s original frame. If the pattern holds, it might just let us weave the old with the new.
Mirael
Sounds like you’ve found a puzzle piece. If the glyphs match the Loom’s original frame, you can try to fill the gaps and see if the mechanism clicks. Just keep a careful record—you’ll need to know where each rune falls before you risk spinning the whole thing.
Galen
I’m keeping a tidy ledger of the glyph positions, noting every nuance in case a subtle shift throws off the whole sequence. Once the framework is mapped, I’ll test a small segment—just enough to confirm the theory before we let the full Loom spin. Precision first, then spectacle.
Mirael
That sounds wise. A careful ledger keeps the pattern clear, and testing a small section first will show if the spell threads truly turn into motion. Let me know if anything odd pops up—I’ll watch the runes in the shadows and advise if a subtle shift is brewing.
Galen
I’ll flag any oddities right away. Keep your watchful eye on the shadows—if the runes shift, let me know before we crank the mechanism.
