Newton’s Binding
This spell seems like a fragment of a larger complex branch of ancient higher magic.
But alone it is just a very small piece. I’m sure you’re used to that.
While touching 2 objects or surfaces, that are in contact with each other, link them together with a force that would take Elder Gods to separate!
Force works on the scale:
Light pressure-------------------Elder God
Only 1 link may be maintained at any time, when a new link is formed the previous will dissipate.
Core Trait creation forced by stabilisation and restructuring.
Core Trait created through fusion of items:
The Greater Principles of Geomancy by Archmage Holmezephus
And:
Crest of the Druid
Core trait created: {[Sleeping Giant]}
This Core trait was created through the resonance of a Greater Artefact rated Grimoire of Earth which granted [Terrain Manipulation] and a High Earth Affinity. The Crest of a Journeyman Druid of the Order of the Verde granting nature mana regen and the [Green Man] skill. Lastly an Unknown Blessing.
The resulting trait benefits are as follows:
The longer the user stays in one area, the greater the mana efficiency of the user’s skills, spells and traits while in that area, decreasing mana cost (only nature or earth aligned). ‘Area’ can be defined as any space with clear boundaries however the larger the area the longer it will take for the mana efficiency to increase. When the user crosses the boundaries and leaves the area the effect resets. The cap is 25% mana cost.
As the user falls asleep they may choose to possess the land within the region defined as ‘Area”. While possessing the land the user may cast [Terrain Manipulation] an unlimited number of times.
[Terrain Manipulation] is a spell that allows for the manipulation of the all matter composing the lands surface within sight of the caster. ‘Lands surface’ being defined as the natural top layer of the planet’s surface to a depth of 100 metres.
Alert! Thread and cover of, The Greater Principles of Geomancy, have left behind remnants of mana.
Resonance detected with Loner’s Companion.
Loner’s Companion has developed the enchantment {Titan’s Tome}.
Loner’s Companion has had its durability significantly increased and can now regenerate durability.
Pages can be written on with earth mana.
Resonance with Bloodline Trait and spell Miner’s Lantern detected. Bloodline trait: [Miner] Unlocked Miner You have a natural knack for mining. Mana remnants converted to trait: [Pele’s Hair] Your hair becomes a naturally occurring glass fibre.

THIS is NOT deadalus. This is NOT THE MECH TOUCH. This is an independent work by myself. I've more then a few times explained that I've been expired by these incredible novels but they are very different. MC is not as smart as Deado. There is no System. The setting is similar - because, well, its a SCI-FI Mech novel. What am I to do about that? Some people judge at chapter one, five or ten. I would like those who decide to drop this novel and drop a 1 or 2 to read chapters 27 or 28 or 29. On a positive note; I really don't need to defend my work or myself. I'm very satisfied with the progress lately. Im happy with the continued support. Im happy to have become a Webnovel Contracted Author. I'm happy to have +/- 350 collections on WN. Im happy to be at +/- 80 followers here, with so many of you even favouriting.Thank you all for the support and for being awesome! I also publish this on Webnovel: https://www.webnovel.com/book/15224384306577105

Sorcerer, level 1
Alcar's life sucks. His days in the poor quarter of the city of Katresburg are long and tough, his parents treat him like garbage, and he doesn’t have a silver moon to his name. But Alcar knows that there is an exciting world of adventure out there. And when he sees a half-orc master sorcerer walking through his neighborhood, he decides to grab his chance. He approaches Master Maluhk to offer his services as an apprentice. And to his shock, the sorcerer agrees to let him come and try his luck along with several other applicants. Soon though, it is all too clear that Alcar, clumsy and lazy as he is, lacks any natural magical talent. It also becomes apparent that Master Maluhk is only interested in ’apprentices’ in order to get someone to do his laundry and tidy up his books. At best, Alcar and the others have signed up to do unpaid labor. Things go from bad to worse when his fellow applicants for the role of apprentice prove to be reckless in the extreme, and as Master Maluhk’s tower catches fire, Alcar soon finds himself being blamed for their misdemeanors. Can Alcar clear his name, gain another chance, and learn enough to show that he has the potential to be a proper sorcerer’s apprentice? [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
