I’ll post a detailed analysis of this thing soon, but first, I gotta consult my spell archive to try and identify some elements of the glyph. This thing is hella complicated, but my spell maker senses are tingling and telling me that it isn’t a BS spell. This was thought out.
Redrew the new petrification glyph from the trailer to try and understand it better.
Strongly suspect the star shaped spell at the bottom stops time. If I'm right, Coco's mom may not be dead. Instead, she could be in stasis.

Unnecessary post, but god. I’ve been staring at the petrification spell nonstop for 3 days, and now my magnum opus seems hopelessly simple in comparison.
When Ininia touched the leech, it stopped moving because the spell on her gloves stops time. That spell is part of the petrification spell
@shirahamakamome
Coco's mom didn’t die, did she? Time stopped before that could happen
She can be saved

Since this is blowing up so much, might as well just put the pages here.
These are all the original spells I’ve made which I consider valid (they don’t have any issues).
As you can tell, I mostly do things with the WHA’s magic system here on twitter. It’s my bread and butter.
Remember kids, slanted signs make swirly magic.
Don’t put any hamsters in the spinny air spells, ok?

I'm not even close to fully deciphering the new petrification spell, but I've made good progress. Here are my notes for those who wanna see how it's going. I hope y'all like the silly names I gave the new signs.

I knew it.
It's here. The moment has finally arrived. For two and a half years, I've waited. Every moment, every second, I've awaited this moment. It's here.
Finally. The answer to my prayers. It has come.
I designed a forbidden spell, the Wound Binding Bandage. It uses a reversed cut spell, pull, and bind signs to seal up and close large cuts.
The drying spells only dry the bandage, stoping the bleeding faster without drying out the wound.

You don't even need to reach that far. Check this out.
This book has the time reversal spell as well as repetition, which is another time spell. And right there, on the same pages as the two other time spells, is the spell we see in the petrification glyph.
Out of all the terrors, tragedies, and sorrows spawned from the aftermath of the Pact, none were as tragic, cruel, or harmful than the fate of the noblest of magicians: the brave Witches of Helaingcraft.

By placing a sigil within a time stop spell, you can stop time for just one aspect of an object
For example, adding a fire sigil makes a spell that stops time for heat, preventing temperature changes

WHA vol 12 has a key for both spells and their signs/sigils. We need translations to know what they do.
Only need underlined parts. Highest priority is red, lowest is green.

I think figuring it out is a bit outside of even my skill level. There’s too much stuff I’ve be er seen before. However, I’ll outline everything I possibly can.
Quick update on the WHA spell vid:
I'm having a rough time rn getting used to college, and it's taking all my energy to keep my grades up. I'm sure it'll get better, but I'm not fully confident that I can get this thing out by the end of fall.
Might be a winter release.

THE MAGIC SYSTEM, GOOD LORD! It’s basic idea is so SIMPLE, yet ENDLESS COMPLEXITY can emerge by carefully combining individual signs and sigils. Not only can we decipher spells by design alone, but we can MAKE OUR OWN?
And don’t even get me started in the world
#witchhatatelier
I’ve come a long way since I first began my journey with the magic system.
My first ever contraption was spell glove, which you activate with dry ink on your finger. I was less skilled back then, so I took a handprint instead of drawing a glove.
#witchhatatelier

I made a contraption that lets you breathe in space. It generates air when the two halves are aligned, and provides pressure by pulling said air inwards towards the orb. When you’ve got enough air, just twist the orb to stop making more.

I have created something incredibly simple, yet endlessly useful - a magic fuse.
Once activated, the spell generates air, raising the pressure and gradually moving the plunger. You can then use it to activate other spells with a delay.
