Even though other mages made use of runes and magic circles, the ones that wizards used were undoubtedly the most complicated and mysterious.
Betsy continued, "The runes for each magic circle differ based on how powerful and what type the magic circle is supposed to be. A simple one could only require a dozen runes, while a complex one could require nearly 10,000 runes to be inscribed very closely to one another. It can look really confusing. A large number of them are repeats of each other, but the most complicated magic circle I know has more than 3,000 unique runes. Also, besides memorizing the shape of the runes, you also need to understand what each one does and how they work individually."
Carl went into a daze as he listened to her teach and describe runes in great detail.
