A scene
The Ghost City lies on the sea floor northeast of Attalus, and the Triton guides will go no further than its first ruined wall. The mage Orestes, breathing the sea by the grace of the water sign, speaks to the stars above the surface and opens his eyes wide. The empty streets are suddenly crowded. Pale sailors stand guard on the rotting hulks still chained at the moorings, and a drowned harbor clerk drifts past, counting cargoes that no longer exist. Orestes has only minutes of sight. He counts the guards quickly.
