Though Gralith said this, he was only referring to singular Runes. This was far from a singular Rune; it was an entire mesh system of hundreds of them. Getting them to work together like this was a testament not just to Spark Mastery, but Sylas' depth of comprehension of the first layer.
Even so, inwardly, he was still a bit shocked by the prowess of Spark Mastery. It was almost like Sylas' brush was being directed by a mysterious power. Even mistakes that beginners drawing the second layer for the first time should have certainly made, he avoided them seamlessly.
"Now draw the third."
Sylas paused for a moment, slowly settling himself before he began.
This time, he failed.
No, failure wasn't exactly the correct way to describe it. Had he had supporting materials like the blood tattoos the Ravenclaw had, then it would be considered a success. However, without such supporting materials, drawing a Rune beneath Breath Mastery essentially meant failure.
