Sometime in the early morning in Marsember the general quiet around the front of the Alizarin Academy is suddenly broken.
Two children, no older then seven winters, a boy and a girl came streaking out of the Academy door, the girl squealing in a high pitch the entire time she ran. The boy had a cup and his hands were of a deep dark purple color. The girl's face was the same colored purple as was the bullfrog she held in her hands.
Seconds later Mynian Copperhand came running out after them, trying to make an ill timed grab at the boy.
"Get back 'ere, both 'o yeh!"
The two children ran from her in the manner that children do when they had been caught doing something wrong. The bullfrog, who looked about as put upon as a bullfrog could, was carried along by the girl as it's froggy arms jiggled up and down with the motion. The chase nearly took the three all around a full block of buildings, but Mynian managed to snag the boy while turning the last corner.
As she did, the cup's contents fully spilled on the ground and what little liquid was left in it made every cobblestone it touched turned that same deep dark purple. The girl stopped long enough to look back and Mynian finally caught her as well. Still squealing and giggling she tucked the purple faced girl under one arm. The boy wasn't giggling, but he was smiling and looked a bit gleeful, even as he was picked up.
Mynian Copperhand muttered the entire way back to the Academy. Her words lost in the mix of noises from the energetic little girl. The quiet finally returned when she entered back into the Academy.
