She probably could have willed the final product into being, but she'd wanted a base to work from in the real world, so she'd futzed around with walnuts and berries and onion skins and other pigments.

Yes, not permanently or anything. It wears off after a few uses, although so far as I can tell the glyphs resist washing and wearing more than a normal doodle! So I really think it has to do with the number of 'charges' so to speak!

Sypha hooks a loose twist of her hair behind her ear and pretends like she doesn't know how obviously she blushes.] It's everything around the goat that catches fire. Like straw, and feed, that sort of thing! They're smart enough to do things with intent, and I thought, hey, that's the basis of most magic systems, so--[fingers spread, ta-daaa]--firebreathing goat.
