[Open; turtlesitting]

Sabriel's favorite thing to do with Kalliel when it was her turn to take care of him was to climb onto his back and read to him- although today, as the turtle paddled through the canals of the Water Sector, her book lay unopened in her bag as she told Kalliel about her students- both the ones still in Keeliai and the ones who had left- and about Amon.

It helped, to talk to someone else about it, and eventually Sabriel pulled out the book she'd brought- another volume of kedan poetry- and began to read.

[Open; Shopping]

One advantage of living in the Water Sector was easy access to the shops that sold fresh produce- and while Sabriel was not much of a cook, her Sending was.

Sabriel browsed through the stalls curiously, chatting with some of the vendors and picking up enough fruits and vegetables to last her for the next few days.

[Closed to Hans; Lessons]

Sabriel had chosen a spot about a fifteen minute's walk outside of Keeliai's walls for this lesson. Battle magic could be dangerous enough- and though Hans had mastered the simpler spells she'd taught him, Sabriel had no desire to create a situation where a single mistake might lead to property damage and harming innocent bystanders. Her own experience of losing control of a fire spell at school and almost burning the gardener were warning enough.

Hence, this relatively isolated spot, with targets made out of salvaged bits of lumber. As Sabriel waited for her student to arrive, she conjured a ball of fire the size of her head and let it hover between her palms, holding it steady as she waited for her student to arrive.

[Closed to Hayley; Lessons]

This lesson was something Sabriel could teach at her suite, and she sat at the kitchen table with one of her spellbooks opened to a chapter on healing marks. Given the purpose they'd been summoned for, they would need healers as well as warriors- and while Hayley was learning at a reasonable pace, Sabriel would rather see her working as support, rather than fighting on the front lines.

Hayley might be her youngest student, but with the recent departure of Alcuin and Javert, she was one of the students she'd been teaching the longest- and unlike Marius, Hayley did not fumble simple spells out of pure anxiety.

"I won't," she agreed easily. Hayley really had no intention of trying to get in over her head. She barely used what she had learned already outside of practicing when she was alone. Healing would be more useful, but she still wasn't about to die for someone.

Then her attention was back on the page, staring at the marks as indicated. "You want me to memorize all six of these right now? I'm not a genius and I don't have any.. photographic memory or whatever."
