Hopefully, he hadn't eaten it!


Okayyy. "Most of you have mentioned that the methods used differ," Di said pleasantly. "That's correct, of course. Change is change, but it can take place in dozens of different ways, and each of those ways is going to have some unique effects that set it apart. In a few months, this place is going to get warmer as spring sets in; but a few minutes ago I did the same thing - raised the temperature - by casting a simple spell. The final change in both cases is the same, but the methods that brought it about and their complete effects, really different. Can anyone give me another such example?" She looked around at them all. "Same final change, different methods?"

The boy blushed, "I vanished it Professor, but I can't get it back!" Glll....

Hearing the next question, Patroclus knew another method straight way, "Professor, birth is a same change, but different method!" he grinned, "Life in all animals begins in the same way" but he was not going to say that, "But the way that it happens is different. For example, Humans give birth to live babies, but Chickens give birth to eggs, however in the end they both produce new life!"

Perhaps Birth was on his mind, as it was his birthday in a few days!

Woo!
