Walking through the woods, you unexpectedly come upon a lovely, but rather cluttered, little glade. There appears to be a plethora of dishes, toys, and other sundries strewn about. Colorful birds flit through the trees, or peer at you from perches hung from the branches. A tiny waterfall burbles merrily into a small forest pool, and you can see little fishes leaping and glittering in the sun. Snakes sunbathe on warm rocks by the water, apparently uninterested in the rats and rabbits frolicing among the flowers nearby.
In the middle of the glade, you spy a furry green lupine poised to pounce. She leaps up into the air, swiping at a brilliantly colored bird before landing lightly on the ground once again. Laughing, she rolls onto her back as the bird dives at her, playfully batting at it with her paws. Wrapped around her leg, a small snake appears to be rather unimpressed by all the flailing, and a cat, spying her wagging tail, runs over to try energetically to catch the waving tip.
"Oh!" exclaimes the green lupine, spotting you at last. She stands up, shedding small furry and scaly creatures left and right. "I didn't realise I had company!" The bright bird lands on her head and tugs sharply on her fur. "Ouch, Zanzou! You know I meant company besides you!" She turns back to you and smiles.
"Are you here looking for an amici companion of your own?" She enquires. "Ever since Zanzou found me, I've dedicated myself to helping other lupines know the joy..." she rolls her eyes up, to where Zanzou is is industriously nesting on top of her head, sticking feathers into her fur, "...of bonding with nature."
She shoos Zanzou away, and amid his indignant squawks, leads you toward a small group of amicus that have been watching intently. "These lovelies here are ready and waiting to bond to a new partner. Picking the amici that best suits you is up to you - not every amici is suited to every lupine." She glances meaningfully at Zanzou. "Once you've made your choice, I'll gladly help you bond." Tivona smiles gently, "For a small fee, of course..."
