Good Little Adventure

submitted by wictory on August 10, 2011, 10:11 pm

This is a great little adventure story of a giggly little woman who falls into the underworld after chasing a rice dumping she drops. The scary demons smell her out pretty quick and take her prisoner so she can make them rice dumplings with a magic rice paddle they provide. Don't underestimate the funny little woman - she makes an amazing dash for it and luck - and laughter - are always on her side!
