The box was filled with coins the girls had gathered since they began playing.
At first, the coins were split based on how much each girl had contributed. But now that Roman had joined, the total was divided equally among all eight of them and none of the girls complained.
"So, each round, everyone puts in one coin except the caller," Roman said, clarifying. "And if I challenge you and win, I take the whole pot and you also give me one extra coin, right?"
"Exactly," Luna nodded. "And if you're wrong and I was telling the truth, I take one of your coins and retain being the caller"
Roman nodded again. "What if no one challenges?"
"If no one challenges and the caller is telling the truth, the game continues," Luna said. "The pot stays, and we add more coins next round. But if the caller was lying and no one challenged, the caller gets to take all the coins in the pot."
"Huh… that's clever," Roman said.
