Each of the die has his or her own personality and purpose. I'd like to write about this little group of magical dice in future Grubbins books.

  youngest a crude spear consisting of a lengthy straight branch with the tip
  sharpened and hardened in the smoldering ashes of a fire.
  "Can't figure it out," the youngest commented to his companions.
  "Where could they all be?"
  The tallest shook his head. "We've l
