A long twisted and gnarled stave fashioned from the rare and innately magical Wych Elm tree is a much sought-after tool. This tree draws magical power out of the ground and stores it in its wood. Any wand cut from such a tree may have centuries of stored magical power locked within it.[1a][2a] The only way to tap the power locked int the wand is to cut a wand from the tree and inscribe a spell on it. The spell can then be cast using the power of the wand instead of the winds of magic, or used to more freely bend the winds of magic to his will.[1a][2a]
