The name "Myshka" is derived from Slavic languages and means "little mouse". In the search for inspiration, I often go to fairy tales, myths, and legends. In this case, I looked into Brothers Grimm's tale "The rat catcher" and imagined an alternative story. What if he had a daughter who inherited part of his abilities of enchanting creatures with the use of a magical instrument? I gave her enchanted ocarina and watched how she dances with the mice.
