An awful lot of people might wonder to themselves- why is Serge entering this race with what looks for all the world like a canoe?

The answer, of course, is probably understood when he turns on the Device strapped to the back, and the thing starts hovering off the ground- and then moves, when the race starts, alarmingly quickly for a wooden boat. With an impish grin on his face, he gathers energy for a moment- and then releases it, coalescing in a [Luminaire] in front of the other racers as they round a bend- a blinding distraction at a dangerous moment, hopefully.
