Put them on either side of a circle," he demonstrated, "and they oppose each other. They can summon or block out other forces. Put them together," another drawing, "and they work together, giving you steam if you're working literally, or a more diffuse and malleable power, if you use them more symbolically."

He kept drawing, until he had an entire set in the air.

"There's also a listing of their basic meanings, which I hope Elsa brought." He looked to her. I'd like you all to work out at least one protective circle using them, and explain what it's meant to protect against. Don't worry about powering it just yet; today is for theory. Discuss, question, surmise, and extrapolate."
