1 º a shot in the dark

[ Amongst the stars, you see a girl dressed fancily, making odd movements; is she dancing? With one foot planted firmly, she draws the other around her in a circle, fluffing the hem of her dress; a seemingly meaningless action until muskets fall out of her dress as if there's hammerspace up there. She picks them up-- making sure there is no one in her line of fire, and fires.

Then picks up another, and fires in another direction.

Repeat a few times. With each firing, she pauses to listen for the ricochet, a soft 'ting' in the distance to know her firing met metal. She tosses the guns to the side, and-- ]

Aah, my apologies. Did I startle you? I was merely reassuring myself I wasn't in another Witch's labyrinth.

[ She bows her head and smiles sweetly. ] I was told there were pamphlets. Am I wrong?

[ All as natural as one can be. ]

It's me who should apologize for startling you. Are you sure you're all right?
