and how thorough your description of the trait is.

I fit an average of seven traits on each side of a

page. That adds up to fourteen traits, front and

plenty. Forty pages in total could fit 560 traits,
which is a lot. Both soul mirrors should probably

mirror, you find that you have indeed managed to
go all the way up to 560 traits and filled forty pages
with items, then obviously you should get another
separate notebook for your white soul mirror. In
such a case, I applaud your excellent introspective
abilities.

Familiarizing Yourself with the

Elements
The process of assigning each trait to an
element can be tricky. The goal here is to iden-

people realize this. They reason that because as-
sertiveness is a virtue of the fire element, a lack
