Get what?

* Raevenel returns home from a hard day of adventuring.
>open bag
You open a duffel bag.
>get rod
You remove a heavy rod from in your duffel bag.
>close rod
There doesn't seem to be any way to do that.
>
* Xibalba joins the adventure.
>close bag
You close a duffel bag.
>tap rod
You tap a heavy rod, which is in your right hand.
>tap other rod
What were you referring to?
>
* Semyr joins the adventure.
>405 rod
You gesture and invoke the powers of the elements for the Elemental Detection spell...
Your spell is ready.
>
You gesture at a heavy rod.
You sense that this is a magical item. There seems to be no spells or charges but the flows of essence are strangely attracted to it. You estimate that it can contain an exceptional amount of mana and it is not well suited for duplicating.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
>420 rod
You gesture and invoke the powers of the elements for the Magic Item Creation spell...
Your spell is ready.
>
You gesture at a heavy rod.
A deep blue thread grows between you and the rod. It glows brilliantly for a moment and then fades into invisibility but you still feel attuned to the rod.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
>imbed 401 in rod using raise for 2 charges
You are not mentally prepared to imbed a spell in that.

Why isn't this working?

Why isn't this working?

You can successfully cast 420 with the targeted item in either hand and with both hands full but imbedding requires the item to be in the right hand with an empty left hand. Your log doesn't specifically show an empty left hand. Also, did you have 2 mana available, attempt the imbed within 5 minutes of casting 420 and no other rods about?

I had all that. Odd thing though, I logged off and logged back on, and it started working. No idea what was up.

That spell is borked in more ways than one.
