A scene
Before the duel on the shore of Anostos, while the Fomorian champion roars and beats his club against a boulder, the shaman Morna sits motionless on the shingle and meditates for the time it takes the tide to turn a pebble. When she rises her eyes are distant and calm. The first blow of the club should break her ribs. It knocks her down instead, and she gets up bruised. The second tears her sleeve and leaves only a welt. The champion stares at his club as if it had betrayed him.
