"I don't know--Mr. Flamsteed seemed to repair that orb with ease, no more trouble than it would take you to repair a broken teacup. I...well, but Divination and Prophecy are not within my fields of expertise, I'm afraid." Nor my interest, she thought, though apparently someone had thought what was in those orbs to be worth smashing. Because Jane was convinced there was a someone, not a something, behind this.
