If a rod of cancellation touches a sphere, the two will cause a tremendous explosion as they negote each other. Everything within a 6" radius will sustain 30-120 (3d4 X 10) hit points of damage. A psionic using probability travel discipline when the sphere touches him or her will be able to do away with the sphere, and gain another major psionic power, if he or she succeeds in saving versus magic; failure indicates annihilation."</li> </ul>The rules didn't cover interactions with Leomund's Secret Chest, ...Tiny Hut, or Mordenkainen's Magnificent Mansion, either as I recall.  It is likely that Sage Advice addressed this at some point, though.</blockquote>
