The Azurite Dust of an upgrade comes from the anvil's stock and your bag; the other materials from your bag.

Several players can use one anvil at once: each sees the item, the chosen alloys and glyphs, the stock and the result of the others.

Recipes at the Runecarver Table can also take the Azurite Dust and Divine Azurite Dust stored in Runic Anvils within the table's building range.

How forging works: Runic Forging. What goes into it: alloys from special ores, and glyphs.
