  1. See "A Tangled Web" (2x77) from 2:02:11 through 2:04:54.  Essek teaches Caleb two more dunamancy spells, Resonant Echo and Immovable Object. Level initially inferred from the 300 gp total cost of paper and ink to transcribe the two new spells. Since Immovable Object has now been confirmed as 2nd-level, Resonant Echo must be 4th.
