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.
Back to the water. I followed the thin water to the thick water, the pond. There was another there. This one was bigger. This one had a different face. This face was brown and pointed, it matched the body in a way my face does not. I greeted this deer. They did nothing. I nodded. I shook. I danced. Nothing.
Again I shivered and ran. What is this place? Who are these others? What is dancing and why do I alone seem to hear the music?
I came to two rocks. They seemed special, they had a power to them. I like them, a lot. I bowed and rested, I felt I should respect the rocks. As I bowed, I changed. I glowed with a light. I felt free.
I ran through the forest again, now covered in the bright blueish light. I jumped over rocks. I smelt the tall stems of color. The light faded. I felt sleepy.
I layed down and slept.
That was my frist day in this new forest.
What will the others be like?
Welcome to the Forest, young
I like how this reflects how innocent new fawns are. It reminds me of when I first started playing Endless Forest.
