It was the magical rune of Ailm, the seer. He enclosed the rune between finger and thumb and looked through. It focused his gaze and the distant Silver Eagle jumped into view. The edge of each feather, the curve of its talons and the sharpness of its beak became clear. Silver feathers rippled in the wind, wings spread wide, casting a shadow across the sun.

Howling storm-breath tore at a lake beneath the precipices, hunting its craft to the shore and the jetties of the high-backed island rearing from the swell. It seemed the city-crowned mass would break loose from the bridge that tethered it to the lakeside to founder on the southern shore.
