I slowly open my eyes, squinting as the bright sky nearly blinds me. I’m lying on my back beneath a tree on top a grassy hill, but more than that I didn’t know. I sit up and look around, noticing a nearby stream and making my way over. When I kneel and lean over the water I freeze in place, almost unable to understand what I saw. My face was…different, my whole body felt and looked strange. I was about the same height as before waking up here but I had pointy ears like an elf from sime fairytale, and my eyes shone in a soft azure light. My features were sharper, almost like a bird’s, and I could hear so much more than usual. I turned around to face someone who was walking up to me, locking eyes with a young elf maiden. She was beauty personified, with slender yet strong limbs, flowing blonde hair and bright, happy yellow eyes that seemingly sparkled on their own. She was about a foot shorter than me and had an air of easygoing and cunning about her, so I was immediately convinced she was friendly.
