Arbor looks at her like she's an idiot and says that it's just a rod. "Not everything has to be complicated."

* TheMetricSystemIsHereToStay: The mage school's headmaster has developed a "more efficient" means of measuring time based on the metric system. Each day has 100 hours, split into 100 minutes, split into 100 seconds. According to him, it's ''less confusing''. To be fair, it would've been less confusing... if people weren't too used to the current way of keeping time. As it is, telling his subordinate that he expects a task done by 72:00 o'clock means the subordinate first has to convert that to normal time.
