Greetings, Domers, it's been a while.

You may or may not know that I, Fanky C. Malloons esq. have a huge lady-boner for myth, legend, and folklore. You probably definitely know that I also have a massive hate-boner for judging because while I enjoy THE POWER, you are all terrible and it makes me furious and sad. So, it is with great trepidation that I present to you this week's theme: World Folklore.

I have at my disposal a gigantic reference volume of folk tales from around the world, which I will use to assign an inspirational folk tale to everyone who signs up. Because my internet at home is broken, and I am mad about it, you are not allowed to do any research on your folk tale. You must take the tale that I give to you at face value, and use to inspire your entry. Having said that, your entry does not have to be a straight re-telling of the folk tale that you are assigned, you can do whatever you want with it, as long as it is clear that your story is in some way influenced or inspired by it.

Because my Book O' Lore is so vast, I can't assign you stories 100% randomly, therefore your sign up posts must include a number between 1 and 4 followed by a number between 1 and 12. Or, if you're too wishy washy to choose your own numbers, anyone with a set of dice (which is probably everyone ITT, let's be real) can choose your numbers for you if I don't do it first.
