You make your way into a golden meadow. There are beautiful gold plants and a miraculous gold lake. Frolicking through the meadow you see strange creatures. They appear to be round blobs with fox ears and tails, and are without legs. They bounce around you, making delighted peeping noises. You bend down and pick one up. The creature squeals and squirms in your hold, but doesn't seem to be afraid. Rather, the thing is delighted to meet you. Someone approaches out of the field, with an equal or greater number of the little creatures bouncing up and down around her. She smiles, holding out a hand.
"Hello there traveler. My name is Ratchet. Welcome to the Buttermeadow."
"Buttermeadow?" You ask.
"This meadow is golden yellow, like butter. It has been dubbed the Buttermeadow because of this. Also, because of these." She picks up one of the round giggling creatures and holds it out to show you.
"What are they?" You ask, intrigued and tranced by the adorable round thing.
"These are the Butterfoxes. Their presence keeps this meadow in balance. It is said that any who gains possession of one is very lucky indeed. This one seems quite fond of you, actually." The butterfox giggles and squeaks, leaping into your arms and nuzzling you with glee. You are moved by such cuteness, and ask: "May I keep it?"
"Only if he is willing to go with you, which he certainly seems to be." Ratchet giggled.
You smile as the little creature nuzzles you.
"Some of the butterfoxes look different. Are there ways to make them unique?" You ask out of curiosity.
Ratchet holds out her hand; in it are several little berries of strange color. "If these berries are fed to a butterfox, it will change their appearance."
More to come soon. :D
You ponder this and take one, feeding it to your butterfox. The little creature's color has just changed to the exact one you were thinking of! The butterfox is now a deep purple. "Wow." You say, astonished. "That worked fast."
Ratchet nods and smiles. "There are many more things to discover with these creatures..."
