Tranquillina rolls her eyes at all the trouble she went through to get an Arcane Connection to Cumhachd, when the elder maga was just going to literally gift-wrap one for her in due time. She ponders the spot on the page from which she senses magic, thinking of tests she can apply. Since she has already cast a spell on the letter, she can rule out the spot containing vis, since she would have sensed it specifically after the spell. She runs her thumb over the written word slowly; "Eskil," she says aloud, feeling a little foolish. She tries casting her Unraveling the Form of Imaginem spell upon the page, in case there is an illusion in force. ((Casting success is automatic. It will unravel any Imagimen spell of level up to spell level 10 + 10 + Unraveling Mastery 3 + stress die 3 = 26.))
(Assuming nothing has happened yet:) As a last chance, she will spend four minutes creating a ceremonial spell to unravel any Aquam spell that might be affecting the ink directly. ((Sta -3 + Pe 14 + Vi 7 + words/gestures 2 + Artes Liberales 1 + ceremonial chamber 5 + aura 5 + stress die 0 (geez! no botch) = 31, halved is 16. It will unravel any Aquam spell of level up to spell level 16 + 10 + stress die 0 (doublegeez!! no botch chance according to spell description) = 26.))
Finally, Tranquillina acknowledges the exertion she is putting her weakened body through; she could feel her magic trying to get away from her while up in the chamber. She Leaps back to her bedroom and enters her laboratory through her reading nook, placing the letter from Cumhachd and the Analects on the shelf there. A thought occurs to her, and she removes the kerchief with Loys's lock of blond hair from her pouch, tossing it on a side table. Then she continues weaving the Vim vis into the cloth with Cumhachd's saliva until she is forced to collapse into bed.
