Inks Part 2
There are twenty special
inks that work for tomes.
These inks do not have an
equivalent caster ink that
will work as a substitute.
All inks are very fine
powders of some sort, mixed
with vials of pure water.
| I will not repeat the need
for water with the
description of what is
required for each ink; just
know that it is required.
