Around my eyes for that my senses may be enhanced. The feathers of a bird for that my magic is that of the deep forest and the wild lands.\u201d Sigyn tried to breathe, closing her eyes against his touch. \u201cAnd the colour of dusk for that my magic is also that of the shadows and the soft night.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cFascinating\u2026\u201d he whispered gently under his breath.

A swift glance told her that Loki had only daggers, with which he would have to approach far too close for safety.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;Ware, my lord!&#8221; she cried. She summoned an arrow and fired in one breath; the shot whirred past the bilgesnipe&#8217;s head.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>chaosmustbemaintained: i-am-the-firechild: chaosmustbemaintained: i-am-the-firechild: She lifted a hand to her face, brushing the edge of one of the tattoos. \u201cThese?\u00a0They mark my magic.\u201d As was becoming familiar, at Loki\u2019s touch a slight shiver ran down her spine. \u201cI am but a poor sorceress, my lord.\u201d \u201cMark your magic\u2026 how so?
