Aria walked into the shop, she’d never seen this place before, but I caught her eye. The old man at the counter smiled as she walked in, “greetings young lady, my store has everything anybody could ever want. I know the exact item you’re looking for...”
“Oh, hi...” Aria Said shyly to the old man, “What is the item?”
“Let me show you, this is one of my oldest in the collection,” he disappeared under the counter for a few seconds before rising back up to hand over a small leather box. The box had a latch to keep it sealed, inside were two comfortably placed Dice. The writing didn’t have numbers or words written on them, a mix of strange runes were written on every side.
“What’s this?” Asked Aria,
“These Dice are the Dice of Change. Roll both at the same time and they will choose your outcome. They can be unpredictable most of the time but in the most dire circumstances can bring you what you need.”
“Well how much are they,” asked Aria,
“7.99,” Said the old man gleefully,
“Okay!” Aria said excited.

Aria arrived home, she placed the box on her desk and unlatched it, revealing two small dark red die. She grabbed each die in her left hand and shook them, then she threw them. The first Dice read, ‘straight’ and the second, ‘teeth’
She laughed at how absurd that was, her teeth weren’t straight but she was planning on getting braces, she was 15 years old. She looked into the mirror and opened her mouth, she felt strange as her mouth began to shift. Her teeth evened out, they were straight, straighter than they’d ever been before.
“Holy shit!!” She Shouted.
