Reincarnation. A cycle of death, and rebirth. In this troubled world, reincarnation has always existed. But, one day, it ceased to function. The residents were used to reincarnation, and did not expect the slaughter to come. By the time the problem was resolved, the entire Elvin race was dead.

It's been nearly 100 cycles of the seasons since that incident. And there is only one person capable of stopping it from happening again. Just two problems.

They're dead. And they don't have a clue what they are doing.

You might be wondering why I've called you here. Well, I believe you might be able to... solve our problem. If you were to guide them, through all the stages of their life, they might just be able to resolve my issue for me.

Until then, I grant you powers of divinity. Ready to play god?

Raree Greenwing. Her scales and feathers shimmer in the light of the now-visible stars. It's cold. And she's almost mortal. There's only one step left: her talents. With this last bit of moral hubris, her divine wings will be clipped and she shall fall.

She has 5 minor talents to begin with. These skills are... limited in their use. A single action she will always succeed at. A verb. It is the only thing she shall succeed at, until she matures. Aside from the mundane, of course.

All of these skills will truly shape her personality. Try to make them diverse enough to solve puzzles... but keep in mind how she might react to your future commands.

Chapter 1: The Forest.

Raree Greenwing.
The name is the only thing you can remember. The events of your life are a blur; you're not even sure that you've HAD a life before now.

You know one thing. You're hungry, and you can definitely hear something scurrying behind the trees. Your body feels natural to move in; you must be very flexible and artistic. Your vision is perfect, even in the dim light of the canopy above. And you feel strangely naked, though the clasp around your neck looks like it was repaired a few times.

Your tongue flicks in and out, and your feathers ruffle. What the hell are you doing?

"Who the said that? I've got a tail! I'll, uh, bite you too!" That's odd. You can see and hear perfectly, where are these voices coming from? It sounds like it's coming from... inside your skull? If so, that's a silly thought-- there's no way you could somersault or hum. You don't know those skills.

>>599792
Well clearly you have a body for dance but you're incapable of doing anything else. Dancing and slithering around. But be damned if this strange voice is going to find out every detail about your life. Time to... lie. "I'm very, very strong! I'll wrestle you to death! Back away, stranger, I'm dangerous!"

>>599791
Your stomach rumbles. You peer slowly around the tree at the beckoning of the voice. However creepy the source, its suggestion was reasonable. "I was going to do this anyhow... just so you know."

You spot a strange, white, furry creature. He's lying down, and relaxing.

Ok, so you weren't informed who we are. We are magical voices, on a mission from a bigger magical voice that is probably a god or something to help you save the world. Apparently people have been becoming dead when they die instead of reincarnating, which is no good.

said the girl who is talking to herself alone in the woods while hearing strange voices coming from nowhere. In any regard we're the only company you have right now and the only thing that seems to be around you is the little white guy and a bunch of plants... unless you can see any smoke or any signs of civilization in the distance past the trees this looks like the only company you're going to be having for a while. Would ask if you could cook but I pretty sure you can't but do you know if you can eat things raw? cause if not there's not much point in trying to eat the mouse white thing.

>Snacktime.

You slither past the stone on the ground and dance your way into the mouse's heart. The mouse, being a simple creature, is definitely distracted by your display. Upon finishing your approach, you promptly snatch him up in your jaws. A bit of muffled squeaking can be heard as the mouse squirms in your mouth...

Almost like a plea for help.

When you bite the mouse in the ass, trying to finish the job, you hear a definite plea.

You remove Stumpytail from your mouth, and grab the still warm tail from your chest. Then you hold them out in your wing.

"Shit, that must, uh, hurt."

"I'M BLEEDING TO DEATH!" Stumpytail screams.

"Calm down! I, I can do something to help! Just give me a moment to think!"

Do you even want to help is the question. I mean, you've already gone this far... but he wasn't ready to die either?

"...hey. Voices." You give in to desperation. "I'm in a pickle, if you didn't notice... help?"

If you can find something to tie around the wound to cur off blood flow that would work best. If his only injury is the tail you can probably save him; it is a pretty small tail compared to the rest of his body.

You desperately try all of the suggestions. This leads you to several important conclusions.
Number one, nobody should ever trust you to be a doctor ever again.
Number two, it turns out listening to the voices was a big mistake.

Clearly none of you suggested anything that worked. Especially not the one who suggested you stomp Stumpytail in the ass repeatedly-- all of the results were just Stumpy coughing up his internal organs. Bandaging those back into the body did not help either.

Well, this mouse is dead. Probably. You don't have a skill for diagnosis either.

Listening is a mistake if by "listening" you mean "immediately going with the most violent possible interpretation of a vague instruction".
For future reference, "applying pressure to the wound" refers to gently pushing on it, and if something like that is unclear you should ask first before smashing things (outside of an actual fight, of course).

it's not our fault you don't know how to use discretion. pressure on the wound would have worked, if you didn't try to do everything else at the same time.

You swear you gently squeezed and slammed the mouse into the ground, but you're still not sure how to gracefully choke a mouse's rear to death. Sounds like a skill you don't know yet.

>...does that other white thing have eyes and is the bush back there bleeding? Make sure those aren't alive first.

You slither yourself over the the rock and bush a little bit away. Luckily, it looks like these are just berries, and not a bleeding bush.

"You guys can't talk, right?"

No answer.

"Phew, I was worri--"
"You talkin' to ME?"

You do a double take. That voice came from the rock.

"You there! You think you're better than me just 'cause you slither around and have movable appendages? Well you aren't!" the rock remarks scathingly.

"Do you want to be eaten too?" You reluctantly follow the command of the voice in your head.

"You bite me and I'll break your bird-damned teeth!" foams the rock at the, uh... it doesn't have a mouth. It just turns a bright shade of red and you swear you can see anger exuding from it.

You'll take that as a no.

as you say then lord crowcuddlier. ask if he knows where you are and if there are any nearby town or somewhere you could go. Maybe offer him a ride. I mean if nothing else we can always just hurl his stoney ass if he becomes to annoying plus he could make a useful weapon.

You pick up the king of rocks and put him on your head. He makes frustrated sounds and seethes with anger, but eventually settles. At least he's not yelling anymore. Time to get information out of him.

> Ask if he knows the locations of any nearby towns
> ask if he knows where you are and if there are any nearby town or somewhere you could go

"Uh, where are we, oh... rocklord?"

"We're in Forest Country. Back in my day it wasn't a forest, of course, but that was thousands of seasons ago." Rocklord pines.

You scratch your head. Well, you're not sure what a country is exactly, but you have a faint recollection from your past life. It's some sort of territory controlled by several kinds of creature.

Sometimes there are friendly villages. But that's all you remember.

*Tiriring.*
System notice. New tab 'Country' filed away in mental Encyclopedia. You may refer to the Encyclopedia at any time. Each Tab displays unique information for a certain kind of thing. Marking first tab... Forest.

Well that was fucking weird.

"Do you have, uh, 'system notices' going off?"

"The cuddle are you talking about, lass?" Rocklord sounds more confused than you are.

"Nevermind..."

>Also if you are high, let me know what your on because this looks like some good shit.

Between this and the voices in your head, you're starting to suspect you WERE drugged. If only you knew what it was. "Better question, where's the nearest village?"

"Well there's always Carvan if you're looking for that... city. Yuck. And I know of a nearby Ork fortress, but..." Rocklord mentions hesitantly.

"But?" You raise an eyebrow. This could be useful information.

"Word gets round they haven't made their fortress available to outsiders for a long time." Rocklord knows his stuff.

You wonder how word gets around to rocks.
