A scene
The expedition into the Sarakan Jungle has lost half its supplies to rot and the water from the river smells of death. Sister Ilse, a savant of a scholarly order, lines up the waterskins and the moldy flatbread on a log and prays over them. The stink vanishes, the mold fades, the water runs clear. Then someone points out that the expedition's only healing potion was sitting among the waterskins. Everyone stares at it. There is no telling, until someone drinks it, whether its magic survived the prayer. Ilse decides to hope.
