"What happened?"
"The town happened," Bay replied, easing Gaius into a chair.
"I, er, I heard that. I meant the, uh..."
"That's not a discussion I'm prepared to have. For now he needs a place to sit and a strong drink, which I'm going to get him." He strode out.
Sven wrung his hands, glancing at Gaius and then catching sight of Ky. "Oh, hello again! I have the design for you."

There were five drawings. Four of the sides and one of the lid. A hyperrealistic brook was burbling down from some low rocks in the charcoal sketch of the sides, with snow on the ground and several birds placed strategically. The borders on the lid and on the sides were comprised of dripping candles, snowdrops and roses.
"We never decided on a scene for the lid," he admitted. "Figured I could sketch that out with you here."

He rubbed at his face and then looked down at it, taking the paper delicately. "That looks good," he murmured. "This is for Tomhas's heartbox?"
