A scene

The sea cave on the cliffs below Mehedra had been carved into a smugglers' store, and the only way in was an opening eighty feet up a sheer rock face. Tariq, a magician from Ophir, stood on the shingle at low tide, spoke a word and rose. He drifted straight up, past gulls' nests and dripping weed, slowly and steadily, until he was level with the cave mouth, and stepped inside. A few minutes later he stepped out again and floated back down, a heavy sack in his arms, careful not to carry more than the spell could lift.
