    An adult man, cloaked in mystery, wandered into the forest surrounding the castle. He was seeking a magical artifact rumored to grant wishes.

    As he ventured deeper, he stumbled upon a glowing stone. Curious, he touched it, and was instantly enveloped in a blinding light.

    When the light faded, the man was no more. In his place stood a little wolf girl, confused and scared. She had no memory of her past.

    The royal family, out for a stroll, discovered her. They were drawn to her unique appearance and decided to adopt her, naming her Luna.

    Luna was introduced to the court as a new member of the royal family. She was received with mixed reactions, curiosity and fear being the most prevalent.

    Despite the initial fear, Luna won over the hearts of many with her innocence and charm. She was happy, but a sense of emptiness lingered.

    One night, Luna was drawn back to the forest. A strange force was pulling her towards the glowing stone.

    Upon touching the stone again, Luna's memories flooded back. She remembered her past, her transformation, and the wish she had unwittingly made.

    Luna, now aware of her true identity, was desperate to reverse her fate. She decided to use the stone again, hoping to return to her original form.

    But the stone was a one-time-use artifact. Luna was stuck as a wolf girl. Realizing this, she spiraled into despair and fled the castle.

    Luna roamed the forest, howling her sorrow to the moon. She yearned for the life she had lost, the man she once was.

    Her howls echoed through the night, a tragic end to a tale of transformation and lost identity. The castle woke up to a sorrowful morning, their little wolf girl gone forever.
