"Good," Solomon said, and even looked faintly pleased with his 'student'. It did take mental focus and persistence to be able to mould reality, and few teens had that sort of patience. That this one could achieve a manifestation fairly quickly said a good deal about his mind.
Whether he could maintain it long enough to sketch the details would say even more.
Solomon showed the teen the first page in his book, which was laid out like a grid--numbers on bottom, letters on the side. "Visualise the area like a grid, using the top edge as a representative of north. Each page corresponds to a square on the roof. It will allow you to draw the appropriate detail and still be able to order your work, like so."
He leafed through the book, showing Frank his own pages in comparison to the grid at the front. "Copy all the patterns you see. The difficult part will be divining shadow from line, but all that will require is a bit of extra conscientiousness on your part."
