Good morning each. Catching up on seven RTs after illness. Stuck on 8ac Poor but holy, keeping back magic symbol (9) I have ?E?U?I?U? . I've resorted to quicksolve but don't particularly like options. Possibly PECUNIOUS fits as to poor but the rest...? Thanks in anticipation

Penurious ?

Sorry! What am I talking about? PECUNIOUS doesn't fit - just the opposite

Rune is the magic symbol, back = Enur
Pious, is holy. P enur ious.
Penurious, poor.

"pious" around "rune" reversed.
P enur ious.

Thanks rusty. I looked at that but couldn't see any magic symbols backwards or forward.

Snap, Malone!

Doh! Thanks each.

Glad to lend a hand, Dandybandy!

Now for 20!
