A scene
The Tharshi timber outpost on Saturnia kept its archers on the palisade day and night. The druid who had come to speak for the nymphs of the valley did not argue with them. She pointed at the nearest bowman's quiver and whispered, and twenty straight ash shafts bent into twenty wooden corkscrews. The man drew one, stared at it, and drew another. The next casting took the arrows of the archer beside him. By the time she walked away, the whole watch was examining its ammunition in silence.
