3) Spellwright Teachings is a consumable item. Use this book with a left click to unlock the in-game guidebook.
4) You can open guidebook by pressing two keys together: "Start incantation button" + "Smart cursor button". Start incantation button is X by default. Smart cursor button is Shift by default. So, by default combination is "Shift + X". Keybinds can be changed in game settings.
5) Read what you need to do next in your guide book.

In-game guidebook:

Spell showcase:
At the moment mod has 80 spells in total. Below you can see gif demonstrations of some of them.

This mod has a variety of teleportation spells. No need to clutter your inventory with a bunch of teleportation items.

Will of torch god - spell that automatically places biome appropriate torches around you when light level is too low. No need to place torches manually. Works automatically while you are mining or fighting. Can be quickly turned off by turning off biome torches in your inventory.

Potion Void - Potion storage spell. When casted it will move all potions in your inventory into your personal potion dedicated storage. You can drink any potion stored in potion void through your guidebook as shown on gif. You can also quickly consume all unlocked potions from void storage by pressing vanilla quick buff key.

Demo of several mining and block filling echo spells

Item void - Spell that can store a lot of items in a large, but directly inaccessible storage. You cannot access individual items in this storage, but you can extract all stored items at once when you are back at your home.

Ritual of Harvest - Spell that harvests alchemical plants in an area around you and then automatically replants them.

Demo of two spells. One can break brittle blocks such as spider webs or thorns in a large area. The second spell can collect items in a large area around you.

Bind mirror - spell that allows you to create custom teleportation mirrors to any location in the world.

Demo that shows several cantrip spells. Cantrip spells are an ability like spells that a player can use infinitely with a press of a dedicated keybind.
