A scene
The Cimmerian war band has camped somewhere in the Borean Forest, close to the reindeer herds, and the herders need to know where. Their shaman Kaija draws on a cloak sewn from the feathers of an eagle-owl, spreads her arms, and the forest suddenly becomes enormous and full of detail. She rises on silent wings above the spruce tops, turns her great round eyes to the east and sees the smoke of their fires within minutes. She circles once, counting tents, and glides home well before the change runs out.
