Mara and Bez pull out some paper and a charcoal stick and go to work designing how they want the sundial to look.
"We should have Mama carve the base, but you chose what we want on it." says Bez thoughtfully. "I think I still have enough metal melted down from those invaders around the time you were born... And we could make it all out of metal, but it might rust then... better to have at least a stone base."

*Kero focuses on the stone, making minute weaves and activating it...uttering mild curses under his breath whgen it goes boom*

"Alright... which one of us were ye aiming that thing at anyway..." grumbles Bez sadly.
"That was his sindial, Daddy..." says Mara in confusion.
"I know, dear, I know...."

*Kero grumbles*
Nobody...the spell is supposed to be passive...a kind of pointer, to remove those who are off balance just slightly.

Bez snorts through his nose. "That was a rather dramatic ending for such a passive device. I think it's back to the drawing board for you."
Ai comes running into the room, out of breath. "Is everyone okay? That bolt hit awfully close."

*Kero snorts*
No bolt, just something that makes me glad I was working with illusion.

Bez chuckles. "His little experiement blew up in his face." he states merrily. "I'm glad it wasn't real too or we'd be picking pieces of him up and trying to glue him back together."
Mara nods, her eyes wide with alarm.

*Kero looks*
I work with what isn't really there, Mara. So most of what I do can't affect the real world.

"For something that wasn't really there it was sure loud." she mumbles to herself.
Ai nods. "I'll say. Kero if you do decide to make it for real... do it far away from this island... something tells me we'd have a big smoking hole if it goes on ye."

*Kero shakes his head*
That's the point of tests. But when I do test the real deal, I'll do it in the Void.

"As good a lace as any, I suppose..." muses Bez thoughtfully.
"Kero," says Mara in a small voice. "If the void is that place between things where nothing is, how can there be anything in it?"

*Kero looks at Mara*
You know, I never did get that explained to me. I don't think even my master knows.

She stares at him in astonishment. "You don't know?" she stammers, "But you live there... right? Don't you ever get afraid?"

*Kero laughs*
Why would I be afraid? I'm only scared of three things. One you know. One I won't tell. One you must find out for yourself.
