Just for fun...

[Usually Castle Town was empty, but today there's a small knot of people gathered near the dry fountain in the center. The crowd was milling about in a half-moon shape, more or less unmonitored, until..]

Okay! That's right.. he got it right! [A pause and the crowd offered a spatter of polite applause.]

His turn now, go, go!

[A member of the small event stepped forward, freshly de-wolfed and ready to go.]

[The pseudo moderator of the game, a portly mustached man, laid a hand on Link's left shoulder and gestured to the crowd.] For anyone just coming in, this is the game! [The man raised a single finger in a faux-admonishing gesture as he explained.] Someone tells two true things about themselves.. and then one lie. Whoever guesses the lie correctly gets to go next. It's very easy!

[He turned to Link]

Go ahead, young man.

[Link climbed onto the edge of the fountain and grinned, hands on his knees.]

Okay... these are my stories.

[There was a short pause as he thought, and then he began:]

o1. Once I fell three stories and broke my arm, only to find that it had been magically healed in my sleep two days later. I never found out who did it.

o2. I've never been beaten at horse-jumping.

o3. In the village that I come from, there's an annual holiday that people celebrate by challenging each other to see who can drink the most goat's milk.

[The moderator of the event joined Link on the edge of the fountain, and held an arm out to the crowd again.]

Well? Anyone have any ideas? Which is the lie?

ooc: Because it's in fashion lately, this is another 'mingling' post! Feel free to guess, tag this entry directly... post your own stories...! Whatever. Go wild.
