[The morning had been interesting, to say the least. It had started out simple enough, with Alphinaud waking and going to wash his face. He'd taken a small sip of water as he did so, as he typically did to rinse the taste of sleep from his mouth, but he had hardly set the cup back on the table when suddenly the room was all wobbly, and he found himself on the ground.
With the back end of a deer. The entire back end: four legs and fluffy tail and all, his torso from the waist up erupting from where the neck should be. His ears were considerably fuzzier and more prone to flicking this way and that; small nubs of horns protruded from his head, two prongs apiece, but no blood. No blood, no pain, just strict bewilderment.
Getting up off of the floor had been even more interesting, but he wasn't keen on discussing that.
Keeping the top of a set of more modest robes - for the bottoms of anything no longer seemed to fit - Alphinaud set out to try to find someone, anyone, to see if this had only happened to him. Of course, in the process, he'd been abducted by guards with the order to report for questioning, but at least with their assistance, he'd been able to walk on the seemingly slippery stone floors.
Milling about in the meantime, Alphinaud is trying to get the hang of walking on four legs and keeping his balance on non-carpeted surfaces, all while his ears are constantly lifting and swiveling at the slightest of sounds.]
