I'm not here at the moment, please leave a note or a missive of some kind and I will return it when I am able to. You can also message my wife Vex'ahlia and she'll let me know if you need to speak to me.
An astrolab...but I can't find a metal flexible enough to make the more
delicate parts
[Percy sighs in frustration]
I tried wedding rings as well. but then I didn't want to assume they would
do those. Wedding customs are different across Exandria I figure an
astrolab might be welcome most wizards have them.
I've been meaning to do that and time has gotten away from me.

An astrolabe is a device that uses altitude to measure both time and the
stars. Ships captains use them for navigation and wizards sometimes use
them to measure time by the stars,..that helps with ritual magic. So like a
star watch.
Oh, so kind of like a star chart? Okay. [ She looks over the mold again, thinking. ] Do you know Blake? She works in a forge where they make weapons. Maybe they might have something there that could help?

I am trying to make Essek and Caleb a wedding gift but struggling with what to make.
[He nodded at the now cool mold on the workbench]
That is the newest attempt over there.
