As the Lake was closest to the makeshift class area, Abra decided to head there first. Here was where he was likely to find a nice flat stone; he often saw other kids skimming them across the surface of the lake, so he knew they were here somewhere.
... Unless they'd all been skimmed into the lake. In which case... uh... Hm. That would be inconvenient.
Well, if that was the case, he couldn't change that, so all Abra could really do was look. The sun was going down, but it was still perfectly bright enough outside to see - which was good, because otherwise he would not have been this close to the lake, okay - so all Abra did was wander around with his eyes directed downwards.
Being one of the first to come searching this way was apparently a massive advantage, because Abra found what he was looking for almost straight away. Sure, there was a bit of dithering, a little humming and hawing over a few different stones that might have done the trick (not that he knew exactly how they would be used, but you know), but then Abra glanced around one last time and saw it. A decent sized flat rock. Stooping, he picked it up and shifted it from hand to hand, mulling it over as though he knew what he was doing. In the end, he gave a determined nod, slipped the heavy rock into the pocket of his robes, and headed in the direction of the pathways to look for sundial component number two.
