THE SHINE FOREST

You walk into the forest. Looking around after you pass the first turn, you see the bushes beside you rustle. You back away from it. A nose emerges from it. Then, the green kitsune you had seen before comes out. For a moment, it fixes its blue eyes on you. You stare back. Then, it scuttles down the path again. You run after it... But you don't see it anymore. You have just walked into a clearing, and there is a brown rabbit sitting on a tree branch, slightly above your head. It peers down at you, and you notice a jewel engraved crown floating about an inch above its head. It jumps down into the grass, and starts to pace in a circle. You watch her for a few moments, and then start to get dizzy. Finally, she breaks out of her circle routine, and walks over to the bushes.
"Atlas!" she calls, jabbing the bush sharply with her paw.
A creature emerges from the bushes. He looks rather aggravated- you notice that he is an equine.
"Wha'd ya do that for?" he asks the rabbit, disgruntled.
"Traveler." the rabbit nods in your direction. The equine looks over at you, and lets out a sigh. The rabbit gestures at you to come to them.
"Hello, traveler. I'm Atlas, and I'm to be your... Tour guide for most of the Spirit Isle."
The rabbit gives him a bright smile. He kicks her, and sends her rolling into the bushes. You look slightly concerned, but the rabbit pokes her head out of the bushes and says, "I'm okay! Don't worry about me!" before falling back down.

You follow Atlas down the path. You happen to notice a tree that has words sketched into the bark. You wander off the path to get a good look at it. Squinting to read the skritchy words, you make out that it says...

Atlas trots over to look at what you're reading.
"Stats." he grunts. "Rita scratched them in with a pen." he grins after that.
"Rita?" you ask.
"That rabbit!" Atlas replies, gesturing at Rita, who is hopping down the path...
"Possesses, possesses, possesses... Okay, it's lost all meaning." she mutters loudly to herself.
"Embarrasing." Atlas shakes his head. Then, he gives you a shove and says quickly, "Moving on!"
He hustily clops down the road, and you follow.
