Writing Wonders Day 4/2: What’s the education system like in your world?

Education system? What's one of those?

Most people can't read but they don't need to, although the MC in this series can. (The Ruthelin character can, but the goddess can't.)

People grow up to carry on the family business.

Writing Wonders Day 4/3: If your MC had a wanted poster, what info would be on it?

She is wanted by at least two groups, but only one of them might consider a poster.

----

Miralees Fornata

Circus Performer and Thief

Wanted for use of magic and stealing valuable artifacts from the Duke.

Most likely in the company of a mute woman.

Alive 5 soldo, Dead 10 roi

----

Five soldo will keep someone for two and a half years, a roi is enough for a week.

Writing Wonders Day 4/4: MC POV: If you could teach one subject what would it be?

Miralees: Juggling. I mean I'm already showing Effie and Yelantera. I can't really teach them to be acrobats when we're travelling all the time.

Yelantera: It is fair exchange for the services I provide.

Eftena: (laughs silently)

Writing Wonders Day 4/5: On a typical day, what sounds does your MC hear after they wake up?

Depends on where they happen to be but recently it's been the ocean and the creaking of the ship's timbers and rigging.

(I am mildly annoyed, because I went to the trouble of creating a new 3D render for today, but the render farm I use is down and I can't get at the finished image. We'll have to make do with this one.)

Writing Wonders Day 4/6: What is your MC’s morning (wake-up) routine like?

If the dragon and gryphon don't need to feed then eat leftovers, tidy up the area and put everything back in the bags. Maybe do some stretches, but usually just take to the air.

But every couple of days the they need to feed which means, eat leftovers, build up the fire, run through all her stretches and moves for acrobatics, then juggling practice before moving on.

Writing Wonders Day 4/7: Name one sound and one scent that occurs in your MC’s worst nightmare.

Silence and rotting flesh. If only she knew why.

Writing Wonders Day 4/8: MC POV: What is something you never leave home without?

Miralees: My juggling balls. As my mother always says, if you have them with you you can always make money to live.

Yelantera: We do not have enough juggling balls for three people.

Writing Wonders Day 4/9: Describe your MC’s style as if in a fashion magazine.

Pass. But here's a few pictures of the MC's different styles.

Writing Wonders Day 4/10: Name one unusual thing in your MC’s home.

It's a caravan.

Writing Wonders Day 4/11: Secondary character POV: What annoys you the most about the MC?

Eftena: [Never speaks, but she's almost never irritated by anything.]

Yelantera: I find the mistress's lack of understanding of the true fundamentals of trade to be surprising but it is also an opportunity for instruction.

Writing Wonders Day 4/12: Does your MC have a healthy lifestyle?

Well, she's not dead yet, despite being in numerous lethal situations. I'm not sure that's a healthy lifestyle though.

She keeps herself fit and eats properly although sometimes her diet ends up being just meat when they're on the road.

Writing Wonders Day 4/13: How physically fit is your MC?

Very. And she works hard to stay that way.

#writingWonders #writingCommunity

Writing Wonders Day 4/14: MC POV: What qualities do you find attractive in a person?

Miralees looks embarrassed.

"I don't know, I don't have that kind of experience."

But you see so many people, every performance, don't you?

"I don't look at individuals." She sighs. "Yes, my mother and sister-in-law might point out some man or other. I go along with it."

You mean they don't appeal? What does?

"If she has a nice smile."

CW: To hide the big reveal 🙃
