+~~~~~02|Spoilers|Floor Inscriptions
+#####R=== Floor Inscriptions ===
+
+It is possible to inscribe words on the floor in ToME. If you happen
+to be lucky and inscribe a spell formula from another language, the inscription
+will use the floor's mana to cast that spell when either you walk over it, a
+monster walks over it, or both walk over it. Not all inscriptions are triggered
+by monsters, and not all can be triggered by the player.
+
+In order to write an inscription in another language, you must first have found
+and read a parchment with some of that language's words upon it. So, just
+copying the inscriptions here won't work unless you have read the words on a
+parchment first ;-).
