She was not an archer and her knowledge on bows and arrows was basic at best, the kind of stuff you would need to learn for survival purposes only, but when she saw the bow resting on top of the elven tomb she did not hesitate. Her hand reached for it, pushed by desire of possession as if it were a magpie chasing a glittering piece of ribbon and not even her companions were able to stop her, as determined to have it as she was.
As soon as she got hold of it she heard in her mind the voice of her ancestors; to her surprise, an elvish word resonated above the wails of her confused thoughts. Instinctively, the hand gripping the elaborate bow rose while the other went to her quiver extracting one of her own arrows and preparing to shoot it across the room.
The string stretched back pulled by the gentle arm of the bard. Lorelei squinted her eyes as her lips parted slightly, murmuring that same word only she had heard before.
"Elu'navi, Eye of the Sky, show me your power."
In the complete silence of the catacombs, the hand let go of the arrow letting the string return to its original position with a snap so loud it could have been mistaken for a thunder. The flying projectile darted in the direction it was shot, reaching the other side of the room in half the time a normal arrow would have taken and with still enough strength to wedge itself between the cracks of the old stone wall for three quarters of its length.

I agree, it looks incredible! I also like the other environmental effects as well, like the mystic power flowing off the bow as it's activated creating a burst of energy and wind that blows away the dust on the floor around her and makes her clothes and hair move. Supremely cool .
