The Once and Future Princess ...

Little Krell said softly, ´´In The Pit yesterday … she was more than perfect, Willie. Like miracle, I swear. For different opponent, she use different style, different plan. New ideas. Brain and body work together. Movement exact to millimeter. Timing exact to … to zero second. But only Little Krell comprehends we are seeing magic. You also would comprehend, Willie. But those fools, they make noise and cheer. Better to be silent.`` He bent his head and touched fingers to his brow. ``Show respect for lady who makes miracle.``

From: The Xanadu Talisman by Peter O´Donnell, 1981
