Lucetta was never the best off in life. From an early age, she was forced to live without a home or family. The only thing that's kept her going these years was her wooden flute she's had as a memento of her parents. Every time she'd play it, something magical would happen. Lucetta would feel more energy surging through her being, her long blonde hair gaining a bit of vibrance and her skin becoming just a tad healthier. It also brought her just enough fortune to buy her food in desperate times. She kept her flute with her everywhere she went, trusting it more than anything else.

It was usually enough to buy her a piece of bread and water, but today, it wasn't. Lucetta took the change and began to walk off, but in the middle of doing so, she was dazed. When she regained consciousness, Lucetta realized she wasn't on the street anymore. Well, she was, but vastly different. Flute in hand, Lucetta was hundreds of feet tall, towering over the place she called 'home'. She noticed the skyscrapers in the distance and looked down to see tiny houses at her bare, ragged feet. The holes in her clothes and her messy hair had remained, she was just bigger. A whole lot bigger. Taking her first step, Lucetta smashed a house under her sole 'Whoops! Sorry! I didn't mean to!' She cried. Then she realized. She was at the top now. No more poor, homeless Lucetta. She was at the top. She could do whatever she wanted...
