Two days later, the last pole or tree as Sigrid had called it was planted in the afternoon. Mages waiting in different cities activated the runes and the ley lines. It all seemed so normal, there was no bang which is exactly what Lady Iryne told her daughter.
Lady Iryne was looking at the sky, waiting to see the connection Sigrid had talked about and she saw nothing. "You said I would be able to share my pictures with other people and watch live television. Where is it?"
"Tomorrow mother, be patient." Sigrid said.
Standing to Sigrid's right, Duchess Mila pinched two of her fingers close together and said, "Your mother's patience is this thin. She gets it from her own mother Lady Damaris Farnsworth."
Sigrid tilted her head in her mother's direction with a smile on her face. "Your mother is called Farnsworth! I always forget it somehow."
