"There's nothing you can do!" said Marcus. "It's all done! Your precious enchanted swords, glowing like the moon, are as helpless as the moon!"
Karl eyed the moon, gleaming, large, over the lake. He put up the sword. "Gaius, Regulus, you said there was a dam over there?"

Perhaps he was the most obvious, but Jonnet had never seen a group of people so determined to keep their mouths shut. She felt the temptation herself. But nothing could let the wizard know what they knew. They walked. She, Queenie, and Nina trailed after the men; they had, after all, done their part, but then, they had as much right as anyone to watch as they opened the sluices and let the water run.
Marcus might not have known, but the aghast faces of the ogres showed they knew what running water meant to them.
