SUBJECT: Rune enchantment skill acquisition
PARTICIPANTS: Jayce Talis, Viktor
CLASSIFICATION: Private to division heads
DATE FILED: Early Solace, 9:50
STATUS: Ongoing
SUMMARY: After months of working together with Hedda Ferrin, a dwarven NPC, Jayce and Viktor successfully enchant a... hot plate!

REPORT:

Regarding runic enchantment:
- Following much independent study, expansion on prior research conducted within Riftwatch (Mme Wysteria de Foncé, Mssr Richard Dickerson), and informal collaboration with Hedda Ferredin, two human rifters (Jayce Talis, Viktor) have demonstrated the ability to perform runic enchantment.
     - Item: Hot plate, portable. Purpose: A clean, resource-conscious alternative to fire for cooking, sterilization, and other thermal applications. Intended for use by Riftwatch agents and citizens alike, as resources permit. Status: Currently adjusting output control.
     - Initial success compounded by excess output resulting in temporary panic in Lowtown. No injuries or fatalities. Minor property damage, no structural concerns.
     - Further practice required to hone skill.
     - Research relocated to the Gallows.

Recommendations:
- Explore enchantment possibilities internally, with external guidance as needed.
- Redress any lingering inconveniences caused by the combustion event to the Horseshoe Lane artisan community and surrounding neighbourhood.
- Stabilize hot plate.

Jayce Talis & Viktor, Research division, Riftwatch

NEXT STEPS: Fine-tune the enchanted hot plate. Enchant useful items for Riftwatch. Craft new siege defenses that also happen to be weapons.
