                 --- The Life if a Rabbit ---
                                --- as told by a White Rabbit ---
                                       --- written by Nagnag ---

My life?  Oh it's not too great, I mean my adventures are wonderful, but do you really want to know about. . . my life?  Sure, there's not much to talk about really.  I remember the first time I set my foot on this soil.  I appeared here next to Spring tavern where the Gods had spawned me.  And as soon as I stepped foot down I looked up and a wooden saber came down on me and killed me.  I didn't know what to do, all I did was get one glimpse around me at the kingdom and I look up and theres a kid.  But that was only my first life.

My other lives lasted longer, like the time I was spawned among the rabbit warrens just north of the Warrior's guild in Buya.  I always set a soft grass trap for people to step on, and every time they'd step on it I'd smile at them and quickly dodge away.  I started something called Blessed by the Watcher or something, I don't know. . . humans. . . what to do with 'em I swear.  I remember when Sagu came by and killed me for fun, I was so honored to have his power jolted through my body!  I came back and landed in front of Orb.  Yea I got kicked that time, still died though, don't know why I was made so weak.  I'm so fragile it's a wonder how I have bones in my body after being killed so many times.

Yea a lot of humans think there are lots of us rabbits but really there's only twenty of us.  We are killed and respawned so often and it's a wonder why people kill us for fun.  I like Druids though, they hug me every once in a while, one time one Druid hugged me too hard. . . and broke every single bone in my body. . . The poor guy, he turned so insane they had to lock him up in some jail because he felt so bad.  I wish I could have spoken or written to him but I can't do that while I'm up here waiting for the Gods to throw me back down to the earth.  And you know that's another thing, humans attack us thinking we can hit back, and we never do.  I've tried talking to the Gods about it but he threatened to turn me into a rock and set me in the jail cell to talk to people uncontrollably about why crime is bad.

If only humans knew not to cruelly harm us, we wouldn't feel so scared to come back down to earth.  You think we like getting killed?  Sure it sends us back up to our heavens but we just want to travel around a bit.  Wony once gave us the power to walk around by becoming one of us.  Wony was our leader, our God, for a long time, and one of the last things he did before he left to another kingdom was he turned into one of us rabbits, and everytime a human killed him, he came right back.  He impressed us very very much.  But sometimes I wish I was a human, then I'd be able to stay down on the earth for a very long time.

But I'm just a poor ol' rabbit.  Nothin' much about me, just some boring
rabbit that likes to hop.  That's all.
