Coral

[ You are sitting in small, dark room with earthen walls, and no window or doors – but it’s filled with apples. There’s a fireplace embedded in one wall, with a cheerfully roaring fire. The dirt floor is covered in a plush Persian carpet and an array of cushions, and in front of the fire is a low table. On the table is a pencil with an eraser, twenty red slips of paper, five green slips of paper, and one rolled up scroll. Unrolled, it reads:

Let’s keep this one easy for everyone.

Write one noun on every red slip of paper (that’s a person, place, or thing, like “Aather” or “Cheshire” or “cat”). Write one adjective (that describes a noun, like “clever”) on every green slip of paper – oh, and rank them, so I know which ones are your favorites. Toss them all into the fire when you’re finished.
