You wake up on a hard surface, with a wind blowing over you and the sound of grass rustling all around you. You slowly sit up in a daze, opening your eyes groggily and looking around.
You gasp and jump as you realize what your surroundings are. You aren’t in your bedroom anymore. You’re outside, with a blue sky above, and tall yellow towers all around you. You aren’t sure what they are, but as you look more closely and take in the sound of rustling grass, you realize these things must be dry grass. But they’re giant compared to you!

Two blue-green eyes with yellow sclera are staring right at you, and you see your tiny reflection in the pupils. You’re frozen with terror, but luckily, the lion doesn’t eat you right away. Instead, it lifts its head and sits on its haunches, shaking the ground slightly as its rump comes down. It gazes down at you and cocks its head to the side, and you take the chance to look at its full body. You notice two things: it’s female, as well as...
