Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong

[Morty]

Does Pymary not work on Senet beasts? I know it doesn't work on First Materials which I guess Senet beasts are made out of (if Uaid is any indication) but Duane was able to ignite the Wandering Root perfectly well using Pymary. Maybe it's that First Materials and therefore Senet beasts can't have their aspects interfered with using Pymary, but are otherwise subject to its effects? But it's true, Duane would have noticed that from trying to cast on Sette.

I don't think Duane cast on the Wandering Root directly. He started a fire, and once it spread, it affected it normally. But he wouldn't be able to take or modify any of its Aspects. But he's cast directly on Sette before. It even comes up directly that when he casts on her, he uses Old Tainish for human.

Sure. But keep in mind:
A) Duane is selfish, and Sette isn't his child,
B) Duane is kinda gullible, if Sette tells him he is fine, he won't investigate further

It's in keeping with his character, certainly. I was just making an observation.
