[CC Command: Cross the Bridge]<br/><br/>Motioning your two dogs aside, you steel yourself, and carefully put a foot onto the pathway...<br/><br/>Nothing happens.<br/><br/>You take a step onto the narrow boardwalk, prepared to leap back to safety should anything happen.<br/><br/>Nothing happens.<br/><br/>Huh.<br/><br/>Breathing in, you begin to slowly and dramatically walk towards the birdbath, being careful not to lose your footing. Strangely, the stone isn't damp in the slightest, despite begin directly over a giant pool of water. As you draw closer, you can confirm that whatever is splashing about in the overgrown ashtray is indeed singing, and to your further surprise, it's in a tongue you understand.<br/><br/>"Water from the moon restored,<br/><br/>Bring freedom to the weary,<br/><br/>Rushing and flowing,<br/><br/>Shocking and burning,<br/><br/>Till all are reformed."<br/><br/>Rhyme scheme does not seem to be terribly important to the creature. Her, for you assume it be so, voice is high-pitched yet so oddly melodic that you suspect she might not even be singing, just speaking naturally. Soon, you get close enough you can see the source of the song.<br/><br/>She is a tiny, female mouse-girl. Yet, unlike all the other humanoids you have encountered so far, she looks much more... human. She has the round ears and pink tail of a rat, yet the rest of her body seems to be completely normal, size not withstanding. She's... rather beautiful, and were she larger, you'd probably be lustful towards her. As it stands, though, she just looks adorable. She's bathing in the same glowing water as the rest of the room, but does not appear to be at all affected by it. This becomes especially clear when she catches sight of you, and her eyes are perfectly focused as they widen in surprise.<br/><br/>It's only then you notice the small mark on her belly. A symbol all too familiar to you.<br/><br/>She's an eternal prey.<br/><br/>[Awaiting Input]<br/><br/>(Plot! Plot has arrived!... Kind of.)
