The Nauroe sailed on through the night, and Lusam soon found himself having to be resourceful with his magic again. The first problem that they encountered was the almost complete lack of facilities they had. The Nauroe had only provided them with a simple bucket, and if that hadn’t been bad enough, there was absolutely nowhere to gain any privacy in the small hold. Fortunately, Lusam had been able to create an opaque barrier whenever anyone wished to use the limited facilities, and had even made it soundproof at Neala’s insistence.

The Nauroe had seen Lusam’s light orb back in the cave before they left Afaraon, and he assumed that was why they hadn’t provided them with a lantern or candles. Renn, however, assured Lusam that the Nauroe never used such items anyway, so if he had not been able to create his light orb, they would all have been expected to travel in the complete darkness of the ship’s hold. But it wasn’t until the sun began to set, that Lusam realised another important omission the Nauroe had made. They had failed to provide them with anywhere to sleep. Not even a simple hammock was to be found amongst the various crates littering the hold’s floor. And although the floor was no longer covered in filthy bilge water, it was still damp, and smelled disgusting. There was absolutely no way that he or any of the others would even consider sleeping on it.

Lusam knew he could easily create a magical hammock for the others by simply making a small adjustment to his levitation spell. The problem was, it would require him to maintain the spell throughout the whole night, precluding him from any sleep himself. Although he was more than happy to do that for the others, he couldn’t help grinning at the thought of what would happen, should he inadvertently drift off to sleep at any point, even for an instant. Then on deeper reflection, he realised that he probably wouldn’t be grinning for long after Neala or Renn got their hands on him. He dismissed the idea as a bad one, and began to formulate a new plan instead.

It wasn’t long before he came up with an idea. One which was related to his earlier experiments with the pine cones, during his trip to meet the Nauroe. During those experiments, he had discovered how to make two objects transfer magic back and forth between one another, without losing any magic. So all he needed now, was an object capable of holding enough magic to maintain a modified levitation spell. Or more to the point, at least two objects, so they could constantly transfer magic between one another.

He thought he had found the perfect solution, when he noticed two rows of iron hooks, one each side of the hold. They would create an almost perfect lattice of magic between themselves, once he had infused them with his magic, and the appropriate enchantment. He knew they wouldn’t hold very much
