Mike had a bucket of it, and he did not have the bucket when he was tearing his way into the castle, so the source must be here. Hmmm. We should try to find it as we plan." Itzal took the eraser from Whit and headed down the hallway, looking into the different rooms. Whit followed, watching the hallway more than anything else, while still keeping a close eye on Itzal. "Perception is key here, what you see is what you get, even if what you see would normally be impossible. For instance:" Itzal paused its search long enough to sketch a quick object in the air., and handed it to Whit.
Whit started at the object, turning it over. He blinked several times, trying to understand its reality. "But how..."
"Really now, people need to stop thinking in 3 euclidean dimensions. Its not even accurate to reality. We'll need to design our trap with this in mind. I have a few ideas." Itzal looked out one doorway and spotted the courtyard. "Ooh, that will do nicely. Come on, We'll set up our trap here." Itzal entered the courtyard, and started scouting it out. It looked down the well. "Haha! I think I found our source of ink. Perfect!" Itzal drew a bucket with the pencil and lowered it into the well. When he drew it back up, the ink had stained the entire surface of the bucket."With all of this we should be able to set up anything we want. Any ideas?" Itzal asked, as it started drawing devices among the bushes.
