Rou woke up at the sound of beautiful birdsong high in the trees. Yawning, the doe decided to head to the pond and took off, stretching her legs. When she had stopped in the shallows of the pond, she looked down and, instead of her usual fawn colors, she had the pelt the other deer had helped her get and tall antlers adorned with purple flowers. She was no longer a fawn, but a full adult.

Rou woke to find herself in an odd part of the forest, near a ring of mushrooms. She got up and stretched before she took a small scroll through the forest before she decided to rest for the day.

Rou woke to a cold wind that blew through her pelt. Shivering, she stood and looked out of the Hollow Oak. Snow fell from the sky and she immediately became excited. Snow! She thought blissfully, bounding around before she decided to rest near the Crying Idol, Farron's favorite place to hang out. She stayed there for a good while before she noticed he hadn't shown. She was soon exploring the forest with a new friend. She had fun with pelts and antlers and masks for a good while until Rou gave her new friend a cool brown pelt that made the deer look like an antalope. They rested at the Playgrounds a good while, curled together to keep warm, before Rou, feeling tired after the day, took her friend to her home in the Oak.

Rou didn't do much today. She woke up on the playground and waited for a while for some deer to help her get the Secretary Bird Pelt(white, black and red pelt) but no one did. Then she went to the Oak and stayed there a while. Then she went to the Crying Idol and had a nap. Then she finally went back to the Oak and stayed there the rest of the time.

What's wrong with the network? It's not connecting me! my computer's hooked up to the internet, so why's it not connecting me? is anyone else having problems with this?

Rou had no idea how many days she spent within the Hollow Oak, the place of her birth, the place she witnessed her parents' deaths. All she knew was hunger nawed at her belly and the purple flowers that her father gave her were looking on the sad side. The night before, she had noticed the flowers' sad appearance and guessed that they were mood-flowers, either going limp when she was sad or stretching their petals wide when she was happy. But today, the beautiful flowers' petals were drooping. Rou's tired body shook as she struggled to control her crying fits that seemed to come at random now, even though she did her best not to think about her parents, but nothing was there to fill the void of their deaths.

Mamma...pappa... Rou shivered and lifted her head, peering out from the hollow space that created her den. The sounds of laughter filled the air, followed by the blissful sound of birdsong. Nothing, not even seeing other fawns playing, would draw her from her place. Her thoughts dwelled on her mother and the words that she had spoken. Instead of watching the other fawns play, Rou let her gaze drift to a bright yellow flower that stood in front of her. Though, the sight of something so beautiful didn't drive the memories of her parents away. Soon, the sun's position changed until it was high in the sky. Rou, sleepy and hungry, wasn't paying attention until she heard the sound of hooves over the ground. With her ears pricked and hope bubbling in her chest, Rou leapt to her hooves and hurried out of the entrance, staying right there as her gaze swept around the surroundings. "Pappa?!" She called hopefully. But the familiar white and black pelt that she recognized as her father wasn't there.

Instead, her eyes fell on a strange buck. He had a skull mask covering his true face. Standing tall and proud above his head were antlers that were fleshy and crimson red in color. And his pelt...his pelt was the thing that intimidated the young fawn the most.

The birds were singing high in the trees, telling the other creatures of the forest that spring was finally here. The only other sound upsetting the silence was the sound of a buck scraping a tree, exposing the soft, fleshy bark underneath it's outer shell. The buck's ears pricked up and soon, he bolted through the undergrowth, passing a beautiful pond covered in lily-flowers. The beautiful scent of flowers filled the buck's nostrils, putting an extra leap in his run as he bounded toward the Hollow Oak, the one place that he trusted to leave his mate. It was in between the Pond and the Twin Statues that sat alone on a hill not far from the Drinkplaats.

When he reached the Oak, the white and black buck slowed his pace until he was walking calmly around to the entrance to the Oak. He ducked his large rack inside and there, curled in the middle with a small bundle beside her, was a doe. "Well?" The buck asked, looking down at the little one at his mate's side. The doe smiled and gave the fawn's head a lick. "This is Rou, your daughter." The older doe said softly as the buck entered the Hollow. "Rou. The name fits her." He said, touching his head to his daughter's. Little Rou lifted her head, blinking her beautiful eyes several times until she could clearly see her father. At first, confused, the young doe tilted her head, one of her ears flopping to the side.

Now that her vision had cleared up, she took in the sight of her father standing before her. His antlers were big, standing high above his head. Around the smooth bone were several purple flowers that seemed to make his light violet eyes pop even more than they already did. His pelt was pure white with a black symbol on his back. Small red circles appeared only on his sides and, like the symbol he bore on his back, his legs were black. The buck smiled at his daughter and gently shook the purple flowers from his antlers until they fell around his daughter's head like a crown.

The sky shimmered with the promise of a light drizzle that day, at least many of the creatures of the forest hoped so, especially the fawns. It was so hot all the time that every single forest deer had to go to the pond to cool off, even though it wasn't that big. When there wasn't room enough where the pond formed, many of the deer went closer to the Crying Idol, where they could allow the water to run over their head and neck. Rou was no different than these.

The young doe gave a yawn, walking lazily toward the pond. Come on, rain! She pleaded as she waded into the pond, enjoying the cool water rising around her shoulders. It was cool within the water of the Pond, unlike anywhere else in the forest. Even the Drinkplaats were hot and a few deer were ever seen there now. Rou gave a lazy yawn and then turned around in the water before she dipped her head slightly to enjoy the cool, refreshing water rushing through her mouth. She had thought she was the only forest deer at the pond, but she was wrong.
