Morella

[Erol of Backford]

In Tradetalk 12 p.06 Rogar runs across the river with Morella's magic on his feet. Should I assume this is a local river cult and "walk on water" is a local cult spell? I don't recall a walk on water of sorts?

I didn't see anything on the BRP, the Wiki, the Well or the Digest.

I guess I am wondering, why not fly but a spirit magic spell might be less costly if available in lieu of using rune points?

Blue Dawn was based on a very vivid dream that I had one night where I saw a Wind Lord prepare for battle and run across a river to fight an unknown foe.

There is a Waterwalk Runespell that allows the recipient to walk on water as if it were dry land (Red Book of Magic p103). In the article, Rogar had previously taken Morella, a water nymph, as a wife, as part of a HeroQuest, and she gave him the Waterwalk Runespell.

Of course, some water spirits or deities could grant the Waterwalk Runespell, it isn't only owned by Ygg.

Because in my dream Rogar ran across the river. Sure, Fly would have worked as well but he didn't fly in my dream.

Thus the phrase "dream stuff up".

I looked its 2 pts, why not just fly. I think (YGWV) it should be 1pt.

Again, in my dream he ran across the river, he didn't fly across the river.
