Hear the Story of the Foxes

As you approach the large fox hole, someone clears their throat politely from your left, startling you a little. As you look, you find yourself faced with a graceful seven-tailed fox.

"Hello," the fox says politely in a very feminine but soft voice. "Welcome to our home. I am the Guardian and representative of my vulpine brethren,
Lady Ansla."  She nods her head in a simple show of respect.

After you return the gesture, she says, "Please, do feel free to look around at the young ones, for they need caring homes to call their own." She quietly turns and walks off, supposedly to go back to do whatever she was doing before you approached.

You continue into the hole cautiously and come upon the chamber where the young foxes are up for adoption.
