A scene
From the cliff tombs of Madaan the necromancer Zahir calls a wind that should never blow. It rises from the sealed tombs as a pale mist heaving with howling faces and drifts out over the desert toward the bandits' camp, not quite a thousand feet away. It swallows the tents whole. For ten minutes the camp is full of screaming. When the mist thins, most of the bandits are sitting motionless in the sand, staring at nothing, and they will never speak again. One stands among them, trembling but sane.
