They are aspects of power.
But they are not power itself.
So she told the king that no, there was no secret he could uncover, no amount of wealth he could amass, no victory he could win that would ever tempt her to treat him as her equal.
And she would not ally herself with a lesser creature.
She put down her last finger and turned to leave.
And as the king watched her depart, fear and anger crashed over him like a tidal wave.
And something in that brilliant mind came apart and shattered.
As she reached the door to the palace, he shouted after her.
You are a fool, Sarkana.
You and all your arrogant kind.
I have no power over you.
I have the power of fear.
The power of death.
I only have to say the word and the world's greatest army will answer.
Swear allegiance to me and my city, and you will be allowed to leave its gates.
Otherwise, I will have you torn apart.
That is my final offer.
And as he said those final words, such was his anger that his power got away from him.
He didn't mean for it to happen, but just like that, silence fell over the city.
Not a single sound could be heard within its walls.
