Earlier today, you fell into Mt. Ebott and began your journey through the Underground. Not even ten rooms in, you strayed from the main path, left to survive alone. Despite that, you spared every enemy you met, even a Royal Guard — you were on a roll.
Eventually, you reached a desert region called The Dunes, and then a peaceful little town: Oasis Valley. After exploring for a while, you headed into the Wild East and found a local Saloon. Starving, thirsty, and with a little G left to spend, you stepped inside.
The Saloon was packed with monsters — eating, drinking, chatting — but you kept to yourself. You ordered a root beer and drank it quietly in a corner, ignoring the stares. Afterward, you needed a bathroom, but couldn't find one nearby. Searching led you behind the stage, but instead of a restroom, you found a syringe on the counter. Curious, you reached for it... it pricked your finger, and you suddenly felt dizzy… then everything went dark.
You awoke unsure how much time had passed. Your bladder was empty, but your stomach felt full.. as if you had just eaten and used the restroom. But something felt off. You felt… younger. Looking in the mirror, you were shocked: you’d become an anthropomorphic fox-like monster. You had brown fur, a short snout, and your brown hair was tied in a bun with a red ribbon. You wore a red kimono with gold trimmings, a gold obi sash, grey pants, short boots, and a red scarf with a golden bell. You looked... and felt... like a 6 or 7-year-old.
Suddenly, you were pulled to your feet. Standing before you was another fox monster, older, with beige fur and orange hair, clearly motherly and unaware of your transformation.
