Description
Hey all,Here is a new story that I decided to start. It tells the story of Raelena, a young woman who's love of her school mascot brings about some very wild changes in her life. I'm taking a chapter approach to this one so that I can submit for you all in installments and also allow myself to work on some other things for awhile. The primary transformation occurs early on in this story (i.e., in this chapter) while the rest will mostly be about her coping and adjusting to her altered lifestyle and how the changes have effected her relationships. However, as Sphinxes are magical creatures, I wouldn't be surprised if there were additional transformations embedded throughout later chapters. There also isn't much in ways of mature content (hardly any at all), which might be a major shift from some of my recent works. It is entirely possible that kind of stuff will come later!
I had a lot of fun with writing this piece. I have a lot of little scenes in my head that I want to write and I plan to continue on with more chapters in the near future. I know it's probably not close to my best work, but I hope you all like it. Please feel free to leave any comments and constructive criticisms in the comments below. Thank you!
**EDIT (8/27/2014): I have re-uploaded the file with some edits.

Try hitting the "Download" button and see if that helps. It's uploaded as a PDF and I've heard that some people have had some problems viewing it. If that doesn't work, PM me your e-mail and I can send you a copy directly (if you're comfortable with that)

Just want to double-check and make sure you received them.

Considering the 'gift' involves losing thumbs it's rather losey if you actually have any hobbies that aren't just talking

I wonder if she had some kind of custom cane or crutches made if she could walk upright

Will there be anything pertaining to recent/current events in Greece and the Middle East, and Egypt? I mean, you don't need to actually send her there if you don't want to, Β but if you do, I could help with the mythological elements of Raelena's story.

Probably not. I'm going to be making up some of the mythology myself (since, conveniently, a lot of the legends from different regions have largely been lost). In my story, they are not only mythological, but also magical beings (as may be hinted at by Phix's story). I wanted to do that to add some more fun to the story in later chapters as well as keep the transformations going.
But above all, this is a story of a adolescent girl trying to cope with a very bizarre situation. I am trying to pay attention to the little details of life and portray how these things might actually have to be addressed if it were to happen to someone. Hopefully, it all works out.Β
