Care and teamwork were the key to success, the bard studying the diagrams and Deimos's own construction before beginning his own and following through with patient endeavor, not needing speed in this task so much as perfection - or as close as mortal men could come. His magic was strong and true, practiced by now and applied with a calm, steady will until the finished support lay in the snow next to the General's and he paused to roll his shoulders and neck, loosening muscles held tense with concentration.
He looked up just in time to see Sunjata's stumble, a silver brow arching at the pratfall but saying nothing to make the situation worse.

Then Sunjata had to go and ruin it by refusing to let Aisha help after he'd proved himself unable to handle the job himself, thereby slowing everyone else down over his pride. The hard line returned to his mouth and he shook his head, turning back to Deimos with a nod. "Lead the way, and I'll follow with reinforcement," he agreed, reaching for the chord and tugging the musical magic in his soul to add onto and strengthen the bones that Deimos laid down for the main support.
