The Vumach Sign

-
The Vumach sign is said to have been taught to Heteri shamans by the
four-armed frog people that lived in the mountain passes southeast of
Sofegai. The arrangement of one's fingers on a human hand requires
much more practice and flexibility. The proper display of the Vumach
Sign will make spirits and creatures of other spheres pause, allowing
time to prepare an incantation of defense (or allow those of wisdom to
flee the scene).

Grandmother Moss lives on the edge of the "Boglai" Jungle just beyond the Ghikarn Colony of Tuloi.

Modern philosophy has admitted a plenum or universal principle of fluid matter, which occupies all space; and that as all bodies moving in the world, abound with pores, this fluid matter introduces itself through the interstices and returns backwards and forwards, flowing through one body by the currents which issue therefrom to another, as in a magnet, which produces that phenomenon which we call Animal Magnetism. This fluid consists of fire, air and spirit, and like all other fluids tends to an equilibrium, therefore it is easy to conceive how the efforts which the bodies make towards each other produce animal electricity, which in fact is no more than the effect produced between two bodies, one of which has more motion than the other; a phenomenon serving to prove that the body which has most motion communicates it to the other, until the medium of motion becomes an equilibrium between the two bodies, and then this equality of motion produces animal electricity.
