Descriptions conflict for some incantations
Fextralife describes Magick when claiming Bones rewards for Gathering of Ancient Bones, while IGN describes Grave Thirst on a random main weapon each night. The sources also differ on the Bones of Arcane Wisdom recipe; keep disputed particulars source-specific.
The Broker exchange direction varies
Fextralife says the Wretched Broker exchanges items for Bones, while IGN says players trade Bones for resources. The passages do not establish one universal exchange direction.
Do not infer progression order from reading order
The sources describe weapon-aspect access and Arcana enhancement but do not establish that one is a prerequisite for the other or prescribe their gameplay order.
