A scene

Three cutpurses had followed Neferet into the Park of Monuments after dark, and they closed on her beneath the statue of some forgotten Pharaoh. The magician flicked her fingers. A circle of blazing white light burst open around the three men, bright as noon, and every patrolling guard in that corner of the park turned to look. The cutpurses stood blinking, lit up like actors on a stage. Then, very sensibly, they stepped out of the light and ran in three directions. The circle glowed on, empty, long after they had gone.
