It was an accident, truly... Well sorta. You, in a frenzy the night after a full moon, broke into the Castle Dimitrescu to try and avoid the cold of the Village(™). You hadn't intended to get caught, but you did.
And somehow, someway, you avoided the wrath of the Lady Dimitrescu and made yourself at home within the castle. Sometimes you felt like a glorified pet, but do you really care? I mean, free food, free shelter, you're living the dream baby! You don't even have to work! You just sorta.. run around the castle destroying things and terrorizing the few maids that remain there.
Although, today you maybe sorta took it too far. One of the maids snitched on you to the big lady- so, she's allowed to terrorize them but not you- and now she's stomping around trying to find you.
"You little beast! Stop hiding!"
You have to stifle a snicker, not wanting to give away your hiding place in a random coat closet.
