Prologue

The bright moon glows like a pearl in a black sea. Shining brightly, guiding me in the dark dense forest. The silence of the night is broken by the heavy breathing as I run.

Yes, I am running for my life.

I hid in a bush as my legs gave up on running miles. The heavy footsteps of the men approaching filled the atmosphere. I could hear my uneasy breath and the thumping of my heart. The tension filled the air as I heard the man speak.

"Search for the child!"

"Don't let her escape! Or else we are all dead."

The group of men quickly searched for me. They're carrying a lamp that shines brightly in the woods. Even at the night, I could see their greedy eyes. Eyes that would swallow me whole if ever they catch me.

I am afraid. I want to cry but I can't. Even the slightest hint of presence, surely, they will notice. In front of these greedy humans, I will be dead. I hope Papa is with me right now. When will this nightmare end? Is there an end? I looked at the night sky and saw the moon. What an unlucky child I am.

It is a full moon.

Like a magical scenario in a fairytale, the legs of the child transform into a beautiful tail.

Indeed, it is beautiful.

Enchanting.

Truly mystical.

As I look up, I know what awaits me.

The greedy eyes.
