Professor Howell

When the measuring orb's tone splits into three, no one gets a reading that day. Today was one of those days.

• RaielThen do not measure.
  Professor HowellIf the Tower Master cooperated, it wouldn't split in the first place.
• MirI heard it too. Honestly, it was frightening.
  Professor HowellIf it frightened you, you heard it correctly.

Writing feelings over the numbers isn't a record, it's a diary. Leave the margins blank.

• MirI draw pictures in those margins, you know.
  Professor HowellThat's exactly why I don't read your records.
• RaielAgreed.

An eye for reading the grain of things can't be taught. Today I came down here having admitted that.

• MirYou actually admitted that? This has to go in the record.
  Professor HowellWrite it down. Just leave out my name.
• ViolaYou're not the sort of man who says things like that lightly, Professor.
  Professor HowellI never said it lightly. That's exactly why I'm saying it.
