77th of Spring, 514 AV
The Common Labs… a place Anna had found growing increasingly inadequate to service her needs in regards to her magic due to the sheer scale of her abilities. It had gotten to the point where she needed to purposefully hold back to avoid destroying another Common Lab, her reimancy was simply too powerful. The price of excellence she supposed was that everything around one suddenly became fragile and breakable. It was times like these that had the tall sorceress wishing for a lab as large and expansive as Maelstrom’s. Maybe she could blow the old Nuit up with a few Glyphed weapons, seemed to have worked well enough for Daren.
Pleasant thoughts of the Mad Master of Reimancy’s remains being scattered around the Element Sanctum aside Anna focused instead upon the task before her. She was looking for a new scroll design, one that could cause massive area effects of destruction. Ideally she wanted to create a weapon with a yield so massive that it could level part of a large city, that was the end goal at the very least. She had created an excellent personal weapon with those thrown projectiles, but now she wanted something with much more boom to it. This scroll she was to create would hopefully be the first step towards that.
First things first, Anna pulled over her research journal and dipped her brush in ink as she prepared to write out the experiment. She had never actually been much one for note taking in the Zeltivan University or at any point before coming to Sahova, however she needed to point towards something as being evidence of the validity of her research. Within these pages would exist that evidence that she would use to claim her rightful place as a Sahovan Master someday. She had the talent and now she just had to put forth the proof.
This initial write up done Anna set the journal aside as her fingers took up the large sheet of parchment she had placed off to the side. She dipped her brush in ink and immediately started to get to work on her Glyphing, her hand moving in an almost blur like amount of motion. Her strokes were those of a master most obviously, her grey eyes grew distant to the world around her until there was nothing else in the universe but her and the subject of her craft. Her brush brought to life the Glyphs upon the parchment, their creation second nature by this point in her life.
A series of large stylized inverted triangles were placed around the Parchment, her Focus Glyphs being drawn easily and confidently. They were really the most basic Glyphs in the whole affair but were also the most vital in the grander scheme of things. Without them the magic could not be stored within the scrolls, in fact there were not many sigils Anna knew of that did not utilize a Focus in its design. Though she did have theory of one simply consisting of Barriers and Paths, something for another time perhaps as at the moment this needed to take up her full attention.
Around each of the Focus’ Anna drew a ring of stylized geometric symbols, the Barriers that would contain the magic within the designated space. These Barriers were tasked with the concept of containment being the heavy focus of their existence. Barriers could contain or repulse, though Anna had never actually attempted to use them to block or contain hostile magic yet. Another test she was curious to try out. Actually she might very well be able to test it out today when she field tested this scroll.
Once the smaller Barriers around the Focus’ were completed Anna them drew a larger ring around all of the Barriers and Focus’ as a second layering of protection would not go amiss in this whole affair. The large ring of geometric symbols was also tasked to contain the magic within, the sorceress’ hands working in a flurry of motion. Grey eyes scanned over each symbol and line, a tiny smile having crossed over her lips as she worked. As she finished she connected each of the smaller Barriers to the larger outer one via a series of Pathway Glyphs, which would allow the Trigger to activate them all simultaneously.
As for the Trigger itself, Anna needed to think about that a little more than she had with the other Glyphs as it would rely upon her wording. She stuck her tongue in her cheek, pondering over it before deciding to try out a new kind of Trigger. The sorceress had never actually tried a timed Trigger; theoretically it was very much possible for a superior Glyper like her though she would need to place in a few extra conditions just to add to the safety. The tall woman was not going to risk blowing herself up with a faulty Trigger. In the corner of the parchment Anna drew out a little jumble of geometric shapes, her Trigger Glyph, before adding conditions in common.
This task done Anna slowly turned to her notes, brushing a bang out of her face as she added her procedure below the introduction to her trial. Her brush drew out a downsized replica of the basic shape of her sigil, a little diagram for future reference incase her description was lacking. Once she finished with that she added the specifics of the scroll itself and the logic in the Trigger itself, vaguely remembering that embarrassment in the review.

Glyphed Reimantic Demolisher Trial #1
Date: 77th of Spring, 514 AV
Goal of Trial: Develop scroll design that can be used for more destructive means. Specifically to demolish a small building. Once this trial is successful the tests will be scaled up towards more and more destructive items.
Presiding Wizard: Annalisa Marin
Assistants: None
Subject of Interest: A scroll.

2 chimes after the word ‘Seagull’ is spoken within a five meter distance of the scroll by Annalisa Marin, the creator of this scroll on the 77th of Spring, 514 AV, the Trigger will lower the Barriers and release the magic contained within the Focus.

-The Scroll itself is made up of Five Focus’ which are surrounded by Five Barriers. A Larger Barrier is created around them for additional layering of protection and containment, each smaller Barrier is connected to the Larger one by a series of Paths.
-The Trigger itself possesses a timed portion to grant time for the user to put distance between them and the scroll. The distance means that it can only be activated by the word being spoken within a certain distance of it, and only by a certain person.
