Still, the place was crawling with servants, any one of whom was capable of spotting Artemis's mad dash down the garden path. Crouching low to the ground, she ran like hell.She drew up short about twenty feet from the estate fence. Iron bars, even tipped with serious-looking spikes and a nasty electrified wire, posed no problem. A relatively simple spell would bend those bars like p...ipe cleaners, and she could short out the wire with just a couple of words.
