Maggie, the tiny Raven God, kept busy for a long time. During the half-hour wait, all sorts of bizarre noises came from inside the golden sphere almost without pause: the clanging of metal parts, the crackling booms of energy bursts, and the tiny cries of surprise from the little Raven God whenever she bumped into something inside.
