“While she was running as fast as her tiny feet could carry her, an outstretched leg from behind one of the columns in the hall popped out right in front of her. Before her infantile brain could stop or think to evade it, she fell headfirst onto the stone floor, with only her wrist to break her fall at the last moment.”
