'So, this is my new existence, no, this is something different. I am no longer bound by simple ways and rules; I can do whatever I want! I couldn't be 'happier'! Wait. What is this happy thing? How do I know about it? So many things unanswered, but this is so 'exciting,' and at least I know what that thing means.'

Auriel was deep in her thoughts while continuing to gaze into the stars that showed themselves at all times. The Golden Fox was not too lazy to stand up but just wanted to enjoy this moment. While laying on the ground, she looked around her and saw the weird thing that made itself look like her and the pit she fell in and began to wonder how she did it these deeds and how much more she could do.

Auriel smiled before rolling on her belly and standing up on her four legs. Auriel then slowly made her way towards the stone that acted like a mirror. With one paw after another, she made the few steps to it and looked into it again. Blue eyes stared back at her, and she began to think of how she did this weird aura thing. Auriel lifted one of her paws and looked at it as she wanted to try something.

"Hmm... What I say happens, so, what am I going to do?"

Auriel thought for several moments and searched in each corner of her mind to try something. After a few moments, she gave up and decided to just say something random.

"How about a tiny bit of red?"

To Auriels surprise, she felt something warm form from her very core and created a flame that appeared above her paw. Auriel was fascinated by this and looked carefully at it before decided to touch it with her other paw. When the other paw mad contact with the fire, it, at first, was hostile and tried to attack the paw, but after seeing that Auriel meant no harm, it stopped and let her touch it without feeling pain or extreme heat. Auriel smiled widely as she found something new again, but to her surprise, her mirror image on the rock changed slightly. Her eye color changed from blue to red.

'My eyes changed to red when I used a red spell! This is so fascinating. How about a bit blue!?'

And like Auriel thought, she felt something more liquid from her core, and an orb of water appeared in her other paw, floated above it. Auriel looked at the mirror and saw that her right eye color was red while the other was blue. Auriel squeaked in joy, but doing this caused her concentration to slip and the water shot in the sky.

Auriel looked up and thought that her blue spell was gone, but to her fortune, it wasn't. What wasn't so fortunate was that the water orb rapidly expanded above her before popping. The water rained on Auriel, putting out her flame and drenching her coat and the ground as far as she could see. Auriel shook her body like a similar animal would that she yet had to discover.

"So, blue Spells make red go away. Let's try... A lot of Green!"

Auriel looked in the mirror again and saw that both of her eyes now were green. Her happiness only lived short as she could feel a lot of power seep into the ground, yet, it felt so little compared to all the power that rested inside her. Suddenly, the very earth under her paws started to shake, and a weird thing shot out of the ground and took Auriel with it into the sky. Auriel slammed her claws into the objects and tried to not fall off.

After a few moments, she shakingly retreated her claws out of the weird object, but she also ripped out something brown, hard and rough out. Auriel turned it around a few times around and was confused about what it was. She brought it up to her face and sniffed on it. The smell, even though it wasn't particularly good, was pleasant while everything around her had a salty smell, this smelled alive.

Auriel threw the weird thing away and looked down and saw that she was very high up. It seemed as if the mysterious object had a long and brown stick for the body and a many green pieces that hang from many smaller twigs. Auriel looked at the ground and saw that there was a green layer on top of the land and this went on for as far as she could see.

"Ehm... can I go down?"

Suddenly there was a golden flash in front of her eyes. Auriel's visions circling her and she could see a few stars above her head. Auriel slumped on the ground and looked straight up and relaxed. The green stuff on the ground felt so much better than the gray hard stuff. After a few moments, her world finally stopped running, and she could look clear again.

Auriel could not describe the beauty from up close. The land was enveloped with a soft green layer of this hair like material, no, it was much more alive, she would call it grass. Auriel saw many more of these things that blew her into the sky, she decided to call them trees. Besides trees, there were a few concentrated puddles of water, or lakes, whatever you would like to call them. There also where many of these green, flat things that have been formed into circles, she called them bushes. Lastly, many colorful plants were scattered around the green grass.

While looking at the beautiful sight, something fell on her head which made her flinch and rub her head. Auriel's pain vanished as fast as it came before looking at the thing that hurt her. She picked up a weird red circle thing. At first, she found another flame, but looking closer, she noticed it was less alive. Auriel brought the object up to her face and sniffed.

The object had a delightful aroma that made her drool. WIthout a thought, she stuffed the whole thing into her mouth and began to chew. The sweetness and the hint of sour caused her eyes to water and cried tears of happiness. After the pleasure was over, Auriel looked up and saw that many more of these things hang on the tree above her.

Auriel thought for a few moments on how to get these sweet goods, but like always, she chose the easy way and just softly slapped the tree with her paw. To her surprise, this attack created a significant dent in the tree and caused a lot of apples to fall down. Auriels pupils shrunk before putting her paws on her head to shield herself and closed her eyes.

Auriel waited for the sweet doom, but it never came. She looked up and saw that her paws glowed with a golden aura, and the apples were surrounded by the same aura too. Auriel smiled and clapped her hand together in happiness. Suddenly the aura disappeared, and the delicious things fell down. Auriel was hit by many of these red things while she tried to escape the fruit bombardment.

Auriel pouted loudly before standing up and picking up the fruits. In just a few minutes, Auriel greedily devoured all of these tasty treats she decided to call them apples with a lot of joy. After she ate all of the delicious apples, she smiled and patted her stomach a few times. Auriel tried to put her paw away from her belly, but the noticed that it wasn't moving a bit.

Auriel looked down and saw that her paw stuck to her stomach were an apple or two turned into applesauce. Auriel free her paw with a bit force which ripped out many hairs out. Auriel was close to screaming, but the pain thankfully stopped, and her fur regrew in just a few moments.

Auriel didn't want to have to rip out more of her fur and didn't want her paw to become even hairier, so she looked around and began slowly walking towards a lake. Earlier, she saw that all the gray bits and dust vanished after the water hit her. If it worked back then, why shouldn't it work now?

When she reached a lake after a few moments and unintentionally collect a few rocks on her paws because of super sticky apple juice, she jumped into the water. The second she made contact with the wet blue, the sticky stuff let go of her, but she now faced a new problem.

Auriel couldn't swim.

Auriel thrashed in the water and tied to escape, but it only made things worse, and she sank. Auriel looked around n the water and noticed that she didn't feel anything wrong. It was just a bit colder, but nothing was all too different. Thinking about it, there wasn't much to breathe up there any way or at least when she arrived here.

Auriel looked around and saw that there were a few new plants. Some of them seemed very soft with many different colors while other looked like really long grass. Auriel began to ponder on how to get up to the surface because, as beautiful as it was down there, it was even better up there.

Suddenly her hairs straightened themselves, and she was slowly floating up to the surface. The golden Fox had no idea how her fur did it, but she wasn't complaining. Once she was on the surface, she inhaled a bit of air and noticed a big difference since before she slept and now. The air felt much cleaner, less salty and sweet.

Auriel leaned her head back to look into the sky one more time before she would look a bit more around, but her jaw fell when she saw something else in the sky. The sky turned blue, and there was a massive fire in the sky. Auriel gasped and submerged into the water as she didn't want to be hit by either a lot of water or a gigantic ball of fire.

After Auriel was sure it was safe, she merged out of the water again, and nothing changed. She only then realized that the fireball in the sky was the sun that looked slightly different with all the blue around it. Auriel was confused about how this happened. All she did was make the ground wet and create these plants. Maybe they are responsible for this. As much as she loved gazing at the many lights in the sky, she liked the fresh air and the soft wind just a bit more.

After Auriels fur was clean, she walked out of the water and walked in the direction where the sun was. Auriel walked through these lands for hours until she noticed that there sometimes would be a little sound and the light that was fading.

"Who is there? Hallo?"

Auriel looked around and saw something brown far away. Auriel walked as fast as she could, almost power walking, towards the new thing. After a few more minutes, she could see something that had about the same build as her, but it was two or three heads smaller than her, had dull brown fur, no claws but stumps and two big curved nails? No, horns or anthers on its head.

Besides the weird creature was another one of its kind, but this one had no antlers, a little lighter fur and was a bit smaller. In front of it where two even smaller of its kind, but these looked could barely walk. Auriel was sure that they weren't here before, or at least they wouldn't be munching a small pile of tiny and much more fragile looking apples that she called berries. Did she do this?

'Did I do this? They look very young, even if two of them are almost as big as me, they were very Jung, and they smelled very fresh, nothing that could be older than a few times closing my eyes and opening them a lot later, maybe I just call this, sleeping. But what about these creatures? They look like they can take care of themselves, so I am going to continue wandering around and leave these... Let's call them Deer, alone. Let's see what else there is to see.'

While Auriel was walking away from these new beings called Deer, she would look back as many times as she could and silently squeal with happiness. If she already found new creatures, then how long would it take to see someone like her? With a smile, she continued her journey through the lands.

During Auriel adventures through the new lands, she found various other creatures, but sadly, not a single one looked even remotely close to her. There were some who lived in the trees and flew through the skies, while others swam through the water and had skin with so many different colors.

After many hours, Aurile was surprised to see that the sky turned dark blue and the stars could be seen again. Auriel was mesmerized by its beauty, but something new decided to join the sky. A vast and white circle that illuminated the sky that she called the moon. Auriel didn't move for hours as she was too busy with trying to count all the stars Auriel could see, but she sadly fell asleep before she came even remotely close to the end.

Auriel opened her eyes and saw that she was somewhere else. Auriel found herself surrounded by an empty blue space and she could see millions of stars on the horizon. Aurel did not understand where she was, but she did not mind, but still, where was she? Auriel began to wander around the empty nothingness but found nothing. After a while, she sat down and began to think.

'Where am I? I just went to sleep, and now I am somewhere else. Did someone take me away!? I hope that wherever I am going that it's at least somewhere nice where I can see all the land.'

Suddenly the fabric of the universe began to blur and form into something else. Auriel closed her eyes as she was scared of what would happen, but when she opened them, her jaw dropped. From where she was, she could see the white fluffy things that flow through the sky, also known as clouds, from above!

Auriel gazed onto the land that was very different from where she had ventured. The land looked like it was made form many different parts, one in each direction. There was a light yellow and hot one, one with an uncountable amount of trees, one that was just a very, very big lake and dozens of others.

Suddenly the world around her started to become brighter and brighter with each passing second. Auriel didn't want to go yet and began pace back and forth in an attempt to find a way to expand her time somehow, but it had no available, and everything went white.

Auriels eyes instantly shoot open the second she was awake again, but her vision was quickly taken when something white and cold buried her. Although it wasn't freezing, at least not for her, she did want to see the sun again and jumped out of the pile.

Once Auriel was free again, her jaw dropped as she noticed where she was. Auriel was standing on a very, very high mountain from which she could see the top of the clouds and a land full of dead rocks beside the land she created.

'But... how... Was I asleep? Did I really do it or was it someone else? No, it had to be me. But what happened to me? I was asleep, which means I was still in my body and in my mind. Does that mean I can use my power to do this much? Cool!'

"Baaaaaa"

Auriels attention was taken away when she heard a weird sound. She turned around and saw a new creature. It had four hooves, white fur, two curved horns and bizarre slit pupils. The new animal munched on a bit of grass before jumping down the mountain.

Auriel ran after the animal as fast as she could, which was not very fast, and saw that the creature was safely jumping from ledge to another very fast, if it would keep this speed then it would reach the bottom very fast. Suddenly Auriel realized something significant.

How will she get down?

Auriel looked down and thought that if the new animal, she called mountain Goat, she to could do it. Of course, she could use the mysterious vanishing and appearing power thing, but she really didn't want to live through the side effects again. So with newfound self-confidence, she jumped at the first ledge, but things didn't end the way she liked and slipped up.

She fell.

Aurile fell down the cliff and hit every rock that was in her path, the weird thing was though, that every obstacle that hit her, broke. After many hits with the mountain's ledges, Auriel hit the bottom of the mountain with such force that it created a big crater.

Auriel didn't move for several seconds, but then, she straightened herself and was surprised that she barely felt anything. Although there were many glowing spots on her body, she barely felt any damage nor did it felt like there was any danger in falling down a mountain for her. After a few moments, the glowing stopped.

"That was quite... scary. It didn't feel painful, or dangerous, but it was so weird to feel so much stuff break under you and then to have my whole body glow. I think I am a bit more powerful than the rest of the creatures here. Weird powers, being able to destroy trees with barely any force and then falling down a mountain with next to no damage. I am so strong! Wait, what is a mountain."

Auriel shook her head and body, but the moment she took a step, she heard a crack coming from her body which caused her eyebrow to rise. Auriel then stretched her body which emitted many loud cracks and pops which felt very pleasant, even if it made her sensitive ears to peek up.

After Auriel made sure her body was back intact, she looked around her and smiled as she now had a goal to achieve. Auriel smiled widely and wandered towards the dead blank land where she would create a new kind of biomes and find new things to see.
