Unamused, Ponder tried initialising the GBL (pulling the Great Big Lever) again to see if he could reset the inner workings but it didn’t seem to help. Maybe Hex did too, and was pulling its own little rebellious prank on him now. Everyone and everything seemed to be suffering from spring fever lately, wanting out. He had his hands and feet full lately looking for rebellious spells that had escaped the confines of their grimoires and scrolls. Perhaps he’d have to call in their orangutan of a Librarian to check for sure. The gears looked fine, though, and none of the ants displayed any antics that would suggest they were possessed by something other than the instinctual commands of their existence. He wondered if a rogue spell got into the gears or the ants. That particular morning, Ponder’s thinking machine, Hex, went completely Librarian Poo and he couldn’t figure out the reason why. Ancient magic built the walls of the university a millennium ago and it leaked out all over the place, staining the carpet mostly, but sometimes causing rifts in time and space, too. Ponder’s office in the High Energy Magic Building seemed to be a magnet for everything weird and strange going on. The rest of him was too busy worrying about Hex. “The Ripple.” That’s what Archchancellor Mustrum Ridcully and the rest of the wizards of Unseen University called it.Ī month earlier, the very elderly Ridcully called it the “Where did my other sock go? Is that Sock Eater back? I thought we dealt with that jingle-lingle-lingle business! And why is there a gaping void where my off-limits bathroom used to be? How am I supposed to not use that bathroom anymore if it doesn’t exist?”Īt least, that’s how he described what happened to his fellow faculty member, the much younger Ponder Stibbons, who could only listen to his ravings with half an ear.
