A scene

By the time the fire bells ring, the Gryphon Warehouse in Atlantis is roaring from end to end, and the flames are leaping for the barges moored along the canal. Callisto the mage pushes through the bucket line, draws the triangle of the fire sign in the air and speaks it aloud. The blaze does not dwindle. It simply goes out, all of it, in one breath, leaving a hundred feet of charred timber ticking and steaming in sudden silence. The bucket line stands there, dripping, and stares at her.
