When Adonis drew the Chasm line under Elantris, how did that fix the magic? Earlier in the book, it said that the lines had to be precise and exact, the width, height, and length all mattering. How then, did a line in the dirt, extremely out of proportion to the rest of Elantris, fix it? Adonis had the right place, the Investure guided him, but even not considering size difference, how did he draw the right shape while suffering immense pain, barely able to move? I don't know if there is something I missed, but I don't think this has been asked before. (Perhaps the Stick he used was a highly invested entity, capable of overriding whatever barrier had been put in place...)
