A scene
The raiders who scale the hill at Klymeus expect scholars, not a fight. The archimage Demetrios, who has spent forty years measuring the planets in the observatory there, snatches a spear from a fallen guard and calls on the red star in its full strength. What follows is brief and ugly. He moves like a veteran of twenty wars, striking twice as often as any man around him, and every blow lands hard. When the red light fades from his eyes, three raiders lie on the steps and the rest are running.
