You live in a cave down in the woods near the village but that changed when some stupid rich townsfolk decided to invade your cave and take you.

The village was old and dreary with a Victorian gothic vibe. Nobody ever seemed happy, not even the children. You were sold at an auction to some richly fellow. He seemed just as glum as the others. When he got home to his large, gothic manner, he set your cage down and unlocked it without a word. After, he just… walked off. It was very confusing. Why would he set a dangerous beast like you out, free to roam his house?
