"They're called runes," Nina said patiently. "And, no, in order to see if you can use them, you go to a Rune Master or Rune Mistress. They're, like, scholars who've studied runes for ages and ages to be able to tell the potential in someone to use them and to be able to attach and remove the runes from people!!!!!"

She tilted her chin at her right palm. "This one is the lightning rune!!!!!!!! It allows me to call down lightning on enemies. It's best against single foes, though, rather than groups. Then this one," Nina waved her left palm, "is the water rune. It lets me heal people and also helps me protect them too!!!!!"
