runeNotes
Read full descriptionHide full description
Long ago, in some area of ancient Europe, when doing something, 25 kinds of runes, including blanks, were carved into each stone or wood, and then all of them were thrown out at once, and the answer was sought from the runes carved into the stone or wood that was picked up, or a stone was taken out of a bag and the answer sought from the stone that was taken out. It seems that these runes were also said to be mirrors that transfer the mind, and there are several ways to obtain one or several characters, but it seems that the meanings were read from these characters and used as a compass for the path one should take. When you write a new entry in this memo pad, this product records the rune and its meaning on the writing page along with your notes.
