A scene

The boy is fourteen and this is his first hunt on the cliffs of Curracurrang, and his hands are shaking on his spear. Kaelu, the Zephyr priestess of the eyrie, folds her great wings and lays two fingers on his brow, murmuring a prayer to the wind. Nothing visible happens. But for the next few minutes, as he clambers down toward the goat ledges, his footing is a little surer, his thrust a little truer, and his luck a little kinder than it has any right to be. It is enough.
