De(a)r CJ, you are now a fawn.

I woke up again today and was ready to play in the forest. I began by running to the two mystic rocks. I gave them my respect, and began to glow. I still don't understand life and this place yet, but these special rocks are always there for me. I feel safe there, like I'm doing something right.

I then started to run. Aside from the rocks, running is another thing I know I am doing right. At least, I think it's right. It feels good to run, and the faster the scenery around me changes, the happier I feel. To me, this is becoming even more fun than dancing, and dancing was the first thing I truely enjoyed.

I met some other fawn by the pond today. I greeted them carefully. The deer I met the other day did nothing, I felt so wrong. I hoped this group would interact with me. I quietly sniffed each one, and gave them a bow of respect. They only stood still and looked at me with quiet blinking eyes.

Perhaps I was being too careful today? I made a noise to call to them, but still there was no reply. I even danced in front of them, hoping they would join in. Still nothing.

I noticed that some of the fawn were laying down to nap. If it was a quiet time, I would join them. I found a nearby spot in the sun to rest. But even after sleep, they still had no response. I felt unwelcome, so I left them to their... standing.

I started to run again, but was distracted by a circle of mushrooms in a ray of sunshine. It seemed almost like a stage. I felt called to dance there, and so I did. I danced until I noticed a squirrel with a halo similar to mine.

I sniffed the squirrel. I looked curiously at it, hoping for an explination, but it was as unresponsive as the fawn. I suddenly found the situation silly, and rolled on the forest floor in laughter.

De(a)r CJ, you are now a fawn.

Last night I woke up in this new place. Or was it last day? What is night? How does time pass here? Where is here? Who am I?

I stand on my own four legs. I am a fawn, new to existance here. I know nothing.

I tested my body. I stamped my hooves. I shook my head. I bowed, I shivered, I danced. I rather like dancing. I hear a wonderful sound when I do. This is music? I like it, a lot. I think I will always be fond of dancing.

I have a halo, a symbol over my head. To me, it looks like a rabbit giving a gift. I do not know what this means.

I let out a yell. Surely there were more like me? Maybe someone could tell me. Could someone explain?

I ran through the forest. No real direction, just to run.

I saw a strange structure. I scared me, I left.

I came to water. I looked in, I saw myself. This is me? A fawn, a face. I blinked my eyes. I could see the symbol above me. I know it must be a part of me, whatever it is. I drank. I noticed creatures in the body of water. I wanted to see them, so I jumped in. I do not like the feeling of being in water. I felt like I would choke. I will try to avoid that.

I jumped over rocks. I ran through tall stems of colors - flowers. I like flowers very much. I want my home to be in flowers. I yelled again. Nothing. But then I found mushrooms on a tree. After eating, I felt much better.

I discovered another fawn by the flowers. I was so happy to see another. I did not know what to do? What is this I can do? I later learned it was a show of affection. Perhaps they were uncomfortable? I nodded. I shook. I danced. I danced more. Could this fawn dance with me? Oh joy! What would it be like if two danced?

But the fawn did nothing. I waited. They only stared. I shivered. Had I done something wrong? I didn't know what to do, I felt scared. I ran away. I ran far, far away.
