A scene

The Vanir champion would face a Cimmerian warlock at dawn, in single combat, and he knew nothing about magic except that he hated it. The cabalist traveling with his clan laid her hand on his broad chest and spoke. He felt nothing. But when the duel began, and the warlock flung a spell of binding frost at him, it seemed to hesitate in the air, then splintered and fell away harmlessly. The champion did not understand what had happened. He did not stop to think about it. He simply charged.
