hit and fun
“Hey there kiddo, wanna give it a try?”
The voice surprised Myrrh a bit - she wasn’t really used to being addressed as a child still, and her wariness of strangers had yet to wane. And still yet, her curiosity got the better of her. The bright colours of the pinata were enticing to her and she hesitated for a moment.
After listening to the explanation - she’d have to break a certain amount in a set time to get a special prize! - she fished around in her pouch for a coin. The man took it with an empty smile and helped her to tie the blindfold and the stick in her hands felt just as powerful as any sword now that she couldn’t see it.
But in her withdrawn innocence, she didn’t really understand that not everyone would be doing things out of the goodness of her heart. The man who was running the game pulled the string so the pinata was just out of her reach and she ran around in circles violently and excitedly swinging the stick, waiting for it find impact with the bright colored streamers so she could move on to the next one and win a grand prize.
Of course, that didn’t seem like it was going to happen, as the first obstacle was firmly above her head in a place just out of reach.
