Huh. What do I know about the numbers 2 and 7? In what way, I wonder.
Keefer always liked math, even if he wasn't that great at it. But this was Arithmancy, which meant this wasn't all about mathematical properties.
He looked around and saw people talking in groups. He wasn't really in a group, so he just started talking to himself. Actually, it wasn't that uncommon to see Keefer holding a conversation with himself, so what else was new?
"
Well, two is the only even prime number, but I doubt that has much bearing on what we're doing here. Seven is obviously the most powerfully magical number. Two is an even number, so it might relate to being round or complete. Oh, and seven is a common lucky number, I suppose."
Other than that, he'd have to think on it awhile.
