He smiled, and nodded. "Good, but this is so you don't have to do anything else with your magic. Besides, consider it incentive to do better. After all, you have three days until we leave to get better, so try hard. Though three days is more than what I got some of the time back home. Once all I got was 'report to the armory for a rescue mission five minutes ago. We leave as soon as you are ready. Is there a reason you are still here?' That mission was fucked from the start, and while it wasn't as bad as what got me pulled here, it was a definite second worst."<br/><br/>He spent the three days learning to scry though his jet crystal, and found he rather liked how light played along its surface even when he wasn't scrying with it. He sent the Queen a message saying he was going abroad to investigate possible locations of the Brotherhood, which was also true, but that he would use message scrying to report anything urgent that he found. Once that was finished, and he felt he had the scrying magic down, he turned to his next project. He had already built and connected most of the pieces of his 'toy,' as the sphinxes would call it, but the biggest issue was trying to figure out how to make the permanent flame for it. He could refill the reservoir for it with a quick spell, but he really wanted a continual flame effect for the final piece of his modified super soaker design; that would make it so much easier to work with. He had the sliding panel to confine the flame already in place, just needed the enchantment.
