Unsure how the rules work, or have ideas or feedback? Leave them here!

So I started playing the Grim Coast and I’m impressed. It’s actually a really good “tabletop souls-like” game. There are a couple of rules that wheren’t clear to me tho, specifically from that scenario:

-So The Writher can place Spike Pods, but since they are hazards, there doesn’t seem to be a limit on how many of those it can place. Is there one? I first interpreted like it could only place 1 Spike Pod at the same time on a single space, but then I started wondering if he could place several Spike Pods on a single place, accumulating more harm if the player would step on that space. I.e, having 3 Spike Pods on a single grid square would trigger 3 Harm to the player should they enter that space.

-Can you block Harm that comes from one of your weapons? On my playthrough I chose the Shield and the Erupting Flame as starting weapons. The 6 effect on the EF spell deals 5 Harm at the cost of also dealing 2 Harm to you, but the shield can block 2 Harm with a 3+ roll. So if I roll a 6 and a 4 on my stamina dice, I can assign the 6 to the spell to deal 5 Harm and the 4 to the shield to block the 2 Harm that I would get from the spell effect. Is that legal/intended? I Interpreted that you couldn’t block harm from your own attacks and weapons but still had the doubt going on.

tysm in advance, this is a really cool game!

For the Erupting Earth spell, on a 4-5, the spell specifies that you "Deal 2 Harm to all same or adjacent/in your row or column". Since it does not specify the target as enemies, does the Engraved take the Harm as well? Was wondering if this was something like spending your vitality to cast spells 

Just want to confirm I'm reading this right: For the necromancer, whose range is 2 & 3, he can't deal harm if standing adjacent to someone?
