I was terrible at it, though gradually getting better, but my throws were always weaker than Seis’ or Jugs’, and half the time I fumbled to catch it, but neither of them cared. It was actually rather fun, despite being such a strange thing to do. And despite the fact that I always came back to the hyll with the front of my tunic covered in sand from my multiple missed attempts to catch the damned ball.
