Amazing Silicate Blorpler

What's it called? Amazing Silicate Blorpler

What does it do? This is the poor man's (or rather: the young wizard's) staple blorping spell. It is similar to Al'Hrahaz's, but the blorping element is now a mineral (be it a rock, a cobble, a pebble...), which tends to be heavier than any jewel (can't be worn either). Besides, after each casting of the Portal Spell on the rock, there's a high probability that it will disappear.
Olden sources and tattered pergamins state than long, long ago this was the only blorping spell available for wizards, which should make us thankful of kind creators and developments in the arts of magic...
The spell, as mentioned, is hardly of any use except for young wizards (and even those would probably do better by buying a set of ring blorples and leaving the extra mind space for other spells) and as a curiosity.

Where is it? Like all the young-wizard spells, it may be found in any of the tomes of Begynners' Magick that are to be found in the Gyms of all of the Wizard's Guilds.

What does it require? A Rock/Cobble/Pebble (not consumed in the casting of the spell, but very probably in the portal casting on it).

What skills do I need? Evoking, Channeling, Evoking (2), Chanting, Chanting (2)

Has it worked? A correct output should read something like this:

You prepare to cast Amazing Silicate Blorpler on xxx (rock, cobble, pebble).
You look around carefully.
You show xxx the area, carefully pointing out all of the major features to it.
You pat xxx nicely.
You whisper sweet things to xxx.
You yell at xxx : Remember this place or die!
xxx seems to purr contentedly.

Help Information:
Amazing Silicate Blorpler – Remember locations.

The Amazing Silicate Blorpler is a first order miscellaneous type spell that encodes the caster’s location in the rock at which it is cast.

If you blorp a large rock, you can chip it with a hammer and cast portal on the pebbles, this means that you can get more than portal from each stone blorp.

Interesting...

Pebbles are lighter to carry, and in this method you propose, yo can indeed gain easily a variety of blorpes for a place you go to often.

Incidentally, pebbles are also necessary for SSE (the earthquake spell) and are sold by a troll street-seller in Quarry Lane.

I remember using this spell a lot when lowbie, as AHSB takes some time to garner up to... specially the high Chanting, which isn' a primary for anybody, I think. Rocks were heavy, and you had to continuously blorp new ones (didn't think then in chipping those rocks...), but that was good for tming anyway.
Since having AHSB within a relatively save number of explosions, I don't see any reason for keeping it in mind. Nice output, though.
