Peorth had sneaked into the temple kitchen for a snack. She found a large metal rice-wafer tin in a cabinet, and picked it up in both hands. She suddenly found that her hands were stuck to the sides of the closed tin.

After a brief struggle, Peorth sat on the kitchen floor, braced her bare feet against the tin below her hands, and pushed with all her might. After failing to pull her hands free, she sweat-dropped when she realized that her feet were stuck to the tin too.

A smirking Urd walked up. "What have we here?" Urd said. "Looks like we've caught another thief with that tin."

"Another thief?" Peorth asked.

"Yeah," Urd said. "Belldandy 'sealed' that tin, awhile back. Long story short, she's the only one who can cut you free. Want me to go find her?"

"What do you think?" Peorth said irritably.

"*I* think you should have asked nicely." Urd gently but firmly pushed Peorth's head down between her arms and legs, and glued Peorth's forehead to the tin.

Urd giggled. "Now don't go away!" She left the kitchen.

Peorth wriggled helplessly, but she kept herself occupied by plotting her bizarre and vaguely creepy revenge.
