A scene
The Ska pirates swarmed over the rail of the Ku fishing boat, axes raised, and the wizard who had booked passage home that morning stood up from among the nets. He spoke the word. Terror swept across the deck like a wave. The pirates dropped their axes, screaming, and fled in every direction; three leapt straight over the side into the icy water rather than stay near him, and one ran up the mast and jumped from the top. Only their captain stood his ground, white-faced, on the deck of his own ship. He did not come any closer.
