The rules:

  1. Go to page 7 or 77 of your WIP
  2. Count down 7 lines
  3. Post the next 7 lines.

“Oh, little finches with your sharp beaks,” said Bana Orn, “Cut through this cord that holds me fast, for night is coming on!”

The finches flew down and clung to the cord, all three together, and they cut it through like that, snik-snak!  Then they flew back up to Bana Orn, where she floated below the dragon-kite with its red wings.

“Little finches, I will ever repay you,” said Bana Orn, raising her hand.  But the little finches had been trained to eat from their mistress’ lips, and to sit on her hands.  All three together, they lighted on Bana Orn’s finger, and down her powder floated, gold and silver in the setting sunlight.
