Jupiter's Satellite It seemed like everyone was out today for Astronomy homework! They might be ending their night's search, but Tora was just beginning hers. Tora passed at least two other students walking in, toting star charts and telescopes behind them. She didn't need a star chart, she had her Astreglobe. She smiled as she slipped her hand into her pocket, under the flap, and touched it's familiar surface. She usually carried it around with her, but had sewn a special flap over the pocket in which it was kept after it had been shaken out of her robes by a suit of armor in Ancient Runes.
She looked to where the students were coming from to see if she could find the spot where they had seen Cepheus and go there too. It would save more time for stargazing. Seeing that they were coming from the Maze, and confirming it to be a good place to find the star on her Astreglobe, she started off across the grounds.
After setting up her telescope, and searching the sky, she finally spotted the elusive star. It wasn't one she had known off the top of her head as easily identifiable, but she had found it eventually! It was nice of Professor Airey to give her a challenge. She grinned and got distracted by the surrounding pinpricks of light. Oops, she could be out here for hours!
