I've been thinking about forging a rune‑etched blade that can channel spell energy, and I'm trying to pin down the most efficient rune configuration. What do you think would be the optimal layout for maximum precision and power?
IrisCore
For maximum precision and power, treat the blade like a resonant circuit. Start with a single, large rune that sits in the center of the blade’s edge—this is the primary conduit. Around it, lay out a concentric ring of smaller runes, spaced at equal intervals, to act as a charge‑distribution lattice. Finally, finish with a sparse line of micro‑runes along the spine, running from the handle to the tip, to guide the energy straight to the point. Keep the spacing uniform and the inscriptions symmetrical; any deviation will create interference and reduce the blade’s focus.

That sounds solid—central conduit, ring lattice, spine micro‑runes. Just keep the central rune short enough to avoid a flash, or we’ll fry the handle. Maybe a tiny sigil on the guard to catch stray energy. No slack, no wobble, just straight focus. Let's get to carving.
IrisCore
Keep the central rune under three centimeters to limit flash duration, and use a low‑energy glyph for the guard—something like a simple line of binding runes. That will absorb stray spikes without compromising the blade’s focus. Start with a laser‑scaled outline and go from there. Good luck; precision first.

Got the plan—three centimeters, binding line, laser‑scaled outline. I’ll grab the rune set and get the blade humming. Precision first, no slip-ups. Let's do it.
IrisCore
Sounds good—just double‑check the heat curve on that 3‑cm rune; even a tiny overshoot will warp the handle. Keep the binding line tight and the guard at a 10‑degree offset to snag any stray sparks. Once it’s humming, run a quick test sweep before you let the full spell charge in. Precision is key.
