[The second rune in existence and the first elemental/matter rune have appeared. It was a twin rune of Light and Dark.]
[Following the rune's appearance and Space's stabilization the universe began to form, slowly taking every rune from the void inside]
[With this universe as the center the multiverse began to form. This multiverse is known as the Rune Multiverse]
[There're uncoutable number of multiverses out there in the void, but closest to the Rune Multiverse are the Magic Multiverse, Cultivation Multiverse, Science Multiverse and Fauzno Continent]
[Aside from Fauzno Continent, the multiverses closest to Rune Multiverse are formed by the similiar laws that are expressed in different forms]
[Fauzno Continent is the 'multiverse' which isn't exactly multiverse because it's composed of different laws, there's no space or time there, but it's too hard for you to comprehend for now]
[Multiverses are composed of Universe Bubbles, each universe is infinitely big inside, so there're no walls which you can break to go to other universes]
[To go into another universe you need to find a stable wormhole or blackhole to go through. Wormholes allow you to go to and from another universe, but blackholes are one way paths, meaning you can go through them but can't go back]
[Core universes of multiverses usually have discovered stable wormholes to every universe, so you can just pay to go through them]
[The Rune Multiverse is the center of the multiverses which were written earlier, it's not the strongest, but every living being in these multiverses is dependant on the Endless Crypt Universal Runic Artifact (ECURA)]
[ECURA is the runic artifact created by the Psequif - a Runic God. He used a universe as a core for the artifact, which he used for himself only, but later with the help of the Gods from other multiverses he infused ECURA with the laws from their multiverses, aside from Fauzno Continent's]
[ECURA then disconected from Rune Multiverse, becoming independent]
[ECURA is a place there the souls from these multiverses go to recieve the strengthening, aside from Fauzno Continent of course, 'living' beings from there don't have souls]
[That's all you need to know about outside world for now]
[Back to Runology]
[Runes are material representation of laws of our multiverse, so when you control runes - you control laws, but not exactly]
[Runes are split into several types:]
[1. Elemental (Water, Fire, Earth, Air, Metal, Light and Dark ect.) - runes that create matter or natural phenomena]
[2. Physical (Space, Time, Gravitation, Mass, Energy ect.) - runes responsible for multiverse's existance]
[3. Conceptual (Information, Fantasy, Power, Size, Growth) - runes that don't have a clear effect without other runes]
[4. Emotional - runes representing sentient beings' emotions]
[5. Living (Life, Soul, Mind ect.) - runes that make life and sentience possible]
[6. ...]
[7. ...]
...
[Runes can be comined to obtain effects that lone runes can't, some runes even fuse comletely to form new runes, like Emotional runes]
[The runes are usually combined, it's rare to see runes that are alone]
[The combination that's easiest to see is the Sentience combination, if you can read this then you're most likely a sentient being, so you should have seen other sentient beings before. All of the sentient beings in the Rune Multiverse are sentient because they don't lack two very important runes - Soul and Mind runes]
[These two runes combine in complex ways to form a rune formation in the being's 'head', forming a Sentience combination, which makes being sentient]
[Most combinations are extremely complex, but there are simple combinations as well]
[You can combine Light runes with Information runes to create a simple Light Reading combination, that most of the animals have in their eyes]
[Adding more runes to this combination will be difficult, but if you can, you could make a World Observing combination that can collect all sorts of information in close proximity to it, like sound, light, vibrations or anything really, as long as you add correct runes for it]
...
[And this brings us closer to the artifact creation]
[Artifact creation is a level above rune combination. If before - the combinations that you have created have dissipated quickly because nothing was holding them together after you have stopped affecting them, then now, when you can create artifacts, you will not see this problem]
[Making artifact means making a combination stable]
[There are infinite methods to do this, but the most common one is engraving the runes on an object, the runes which the object is made from should be able to withstand the combination's force and shouldn't react with the combination negatively]
[The simplest artifact is the {Tierless} {Crystal Eye}]
[{Crystal eye} is made by engraving a Light Reading combination on a transparent sphere, usually glass ball]
[But to obtain the picture from the {Crystal eye} you need to make a Reciever combination, which is made by combining Information and Dark runes together]
[By engraving a half of the Reciever combination on the {Crystal Eye}, opposite of the Light Reading combination, you can see everything that {Crystal Eye} sees by simply using the other half of the Reciever combination on your eyes or brain (it's faster on the brain, but it can be very dangerous if you don't know where the visual information should go)]
[Such {Crystal eye} can be considered a {Tier 0} artifact]
[Aside from ordinary artifacts that you can create and upgrade by yourself, there are Evolvable Artifacts. These artifacts can obtain runes from the outside by themselves, and upgrade themself without Artificer's help]
[To create such artifacts an Artificer will need to make a Flexible Combination, it's the combination that can accept other runes inside and make them its own. Flexible Combinations have different tiers, corresponding to the hightest tier they can reach without Artificer's help]
[One of the most common Evolvable Artifacts is the {Magical Eyes} artifact]
[Like all Evolvable Artifacts it starts at the {Tier 0}, slowly accumulating different runes by devouring different beings' eyes and other artifacts with the same tier and the core made by Information runes]
...
[Most of the artifacts are able to reside in the user's soul, because Soul runes easily accept other runes being inscribed on them]
...
[Remember that everything written in this book is just basics and easiest examples. There's no such thing as being able to use runes in only one way, you can use runes in absolutely crazy ways, creating artifacts without need of engraving runes on objects]
[Runology is absolutely massive, there's no end to exploring it. So use information written in this book as just practice material and don't become a boring old Runemaster, do Runology your own way, only taking others' ways as precious experience to sharpen your own way]
[Thank you for reading,

«Wow» said Frank absentmindedly, being shocked by the revelations this book have brought to him.
«So this world is THIS big. Unbelievable!» muttered Frank while collecting his disorderly thoughts.
'I should be from the Science Multiverse.' thought Frank after which a realisation hit him hard.
'But... If this place is as infinite as a Universe, doesn't that mean that I won't see my family ever again?' realised Frank, small tear dropping from his eye.
'Why should I move on then? I don't want to become strong or conquer the world, I can just sit here, slowly dying from old age or killing myself' depressing thoughts started appearing in Frank's mind, slowly eating him from the inside.
His aura began growing steadily.
