Origin[]
There is no real woman named Nancy Etticoat who owned this candle, however, there is a poem that is believed to be the true inspiration for this artifact:
Little Nancy Etticoat,
- In a white petticoat,
- And a red nose;
- The longer she stands,
- The shorter she grows.
Effects[]
Lighting makes one more popular and influential among throngs of strangers, especially under the usage of social media. They begin to gather followers just by acting like their regular self, no achievements required. More and more fame leads to shrinkage in height until they are the size of a mite.
