Ahh, the great wilderness! Setting up camp here was an amazing idea, the forest is beautiful! Regardless of if you're simply setting up for the night before continuing on an adventure, enjoying the scenery, or hiding out from the local towns guards because you 'accidentally' stole 37 cheese wheels, this is nice.

As you start setting up to make dinner for yourself, your ears pick up a noise. A small bout of whimpering from further in the forest. How curious...well, you can't just leave it be, right? Sure, curiosity is the number one cause of death in felines, but satisfaction happens to be the number one way they regain their lost lives! Of course you start off to find it!

It takes a few minutes of walking, following the noise, you finally find it; a small mimic, taking the form of a treasure chest with four small, thin legs. She's propped against a tree, with a hefty gash in one of her hind legs, the reason for the whimpers and the immobilization. She looks up at you and whimpers, now not just painfully, but with fear. She's vulnerable after all, defenseless. Of course she'd be scared of someone approaching.

...well? What now? It's your tale to weave...
