[As Pratt sets the stone on the porch, Carlisle looks behind them to see just how far it reaches. Not too shabby, if he does say so himself.]

I am, unfortunately, a self-taught glyphcrafter overall. My uncle, Benistad, taught me the very basics long ago, but as the easiest form of magic to learn, I likely could have taught myself that, as well, given enough time and the proper books. I will admit that I have had students in this place that surpassed my own glyphs so readily that I felt inadequate by comparison, but I have managed to find ways to serve my needs through the craft, particularly in schools of magic I cannot access on my own.

[He rubs at his neck, his shade deepening.]

I am... quite proud of these, if I am honest. I have to enlist some help in carving the glyphs into the rocks, so I cannot make many of them, you see. But with those I can, I hope I- that I can bring about something good in this world, even if only for a few individuals.
