"I like your attitude," says Saevetei, grinning.

First! Making things for a poppet. It is more difficult than breakfast, but Saevetei selects the easiest first and leaves the harder ones for the end, when Grendyne has had quite a lot of practice. It is a gentle learning curve and a reasonable way to practice making things.

"So I feel I should tell you," she says, as Grendyne is making a very specific type of moss that's pretty easy to make but takes an annoyingly long time to form, "poppets can be used for ludicrously terrible things, but using them for ludicrously terrible things is difficult if you don't know the exact steps, which uh - aren't obvious. I will not be teaching you those, they are exactly useless against the Neuroi. But I can teach you the ones that protect you against fire or drowning or help prevent broken bones and the like. Because those are useful against the Neuroi, and also just generally helpful."
