+'''Salt''' is a mage cantrip that enhances a cooked meal or traditional [[Food|recipe]] by infusing it with the precise amount of salt required to achieve the desired flavour or culinary outcome. This cantrip proves particularly valuable when creating salt-meats for [[Food Preservation (sage ability)|preservation]], as it accomplishes the task instantly — a process that would otherwise be time-consuming and labor-intensive.

-The amount of salt is immaterial to the magic involved.  Thus, the amount of salt that's conjured to saturate fresh pork for preservation is far, far more than what's added to a pot of soup.  In either case, the "right" amount of salt always occurs; the caster cannot force less or more salt on a whim.  In meals, this right amount ensures the diners obtain their salt requirement for the day.
+The cantrip’s magic is inherently utilitarian, refusing to work in ways that lack a clear purpose. For instance, it cannot turn ordinary water salty and undrinkable, as this serves no practical function. This limitation highlights the magic's peculiar, fickle nature.
-As such, ordinary water cannot be made salty and undrinkable, as this serves no obvious purpose.  Simply put, the cantrip's magic is fickle.
+Beyond its culinary uses, the Salt cantrip has additional applications. It can make slippery floors safe, affecting up to one [[Combat Hex|combat hex]] per [[Experience Level|level]] of the caster. Furthermore, when used against creatures sensitive to salt — such as leeches, slugs, eels, and other worms — the cantrip inflicts 1–4 [[Damage (hit points)|damage]], providing a surprising degree of versatility outside the kitchen. These uses highlight the cantrip’s broader functionality while remaining consistent with its inherently practical nature.
