A dark-cloaked figure is seen walking through a hallway, the walls glowing in a soft, silvery-cold light. Her hood is drawn down, hiding most of her face in its shadow and only the large, grey wolf walking in front of her gives a sense of scale, showing that the figure is a small and slender one.

When they reach an intersection, they step into a room and a delighted giggle is heard. The scene cuts, showing the inside of the room, two more large wolves intently watch the cloaked figure who removes her hood, showing a finely-chiseled face, green eyes standing out from white-blue skin. Her silvery lips are drawn up into a smile and a moment later, the camera shows why. Between the two wolves that had been in the room, there is a large litter of puppies, easily twenty of the small furry shapes, squirming around, trying to gnaw on each other’s ear, flopping around, some more, some less secure on their oversized paws.

One of the puppies spots the newcomer and starts to move closer, the tiny tail wagging a mile a minute. The cloaked figure squats down, stretching a hand out to let the puppy sniff and slobber over it, before starting to gently pet it behind the ears, causing it to squirm in delight, while growling in obvious pleasure.

While the cloaked figure is focused on the puppy in front of her, the other puppies were drawn by the noise and, like a many-pawed, furry cloud, the move over, curious what has intruded into their space. On of the largest puppies decided that it wants some attention, too, jumping at the cloaked figure. Caught by surprise and in a rather unbalanced squatting position, the figure is knocked off balance by the enthusiastic puppy, causing her to land on her behind while giving off a cute squeal.

Now, with the newcomer down on their level, the puppies collectively charge, jumping onto her as a squirming mass, causing the figure to be brought down, lying on her back with all the puppies trying to sniff her, while tasting any skin that is found. The intense attention of the puppies seems to tickle as the protests of “No, not there!” are often punctuated by squeals, laughter and giggles.

After a few moments of getting mobbed by puppies, the figure starts rolling with them, obviously careful to keep them from getting harmed but happily joining in their play, causing the puppies to react with delighted growls. They play for a few moments, the figure trying to tickle one puppy only to get distracted by another, going after that one for a moment but the simple number of puppies causes them to “win”, overwhelming her with demands for attention.

The image cuts and the time-skip is quite obvious. While the figure is still dressed the same and the soft, silvery-light hasn’t changed in the slightest, her black hair is tangled and her forehead covered in a sheen of sweat, as she sits with her back to the wall, surrounded by the litter of puppies, all of them tuckered out and sleeping, some completely lying on her, using her as a pillow, the others strewn around her in a large puppy-pile. The smile on her face is tired but oh, so happy, as she softly scritches one of the puppies on her lap, causing it to waggle its paws, as if running in its dream, giving off soft barks of happiness.

The image fades and is replaced by the globe, with blue fire racing over it and a banner appears.

Ohmygawd, puppies!

Where did you find them?!

-Do’rodra, confirmed Beta-Account

I saw a new Morgana-Video

Click on it, expecting some awesome battle, cool new magic and maybe zombies, ripping her foes to pieces.

Get puppies and a laughing elf, rolling around in playful joy, attacking with cuteness overload.

Cool to see a different side of the fearsome sorceress.

-Tarrin, confirmed Beta-Account

Those are wolves, right? Why on earth are quite obviously wild wolves frolicking around with you, not trying to rip you to shreds? I’m a little jealous here.

-Goliry, confirmed Beta-Account

At first, when I started watching the video, I thought, cool, some sort of wolf-themed dungeon crawl, but there was something odd about the wolf’s behaviour. But we have seen the wolf that runs with Morgana, so I thought it might be that one, they look kinda alike.

But then: Puppies!

Yuthos, confirmed Beta-Account

What’s next? The Devil playing with a kitten? I’m so confused

-Harms, confirmed Beta-Account

Bwahaha, too cute. What more could one want in a girl, cute, likes to play with animals, powerful enough to rip her enemies to shreds? I think I’m in love…

Villar, confirmed Beta-Account

This has cured my depression temporarily

Where do I find my own litter of cute puppies willing to play with me?

Rachant, confirmed Beta-Account

Everyone: Road to Purgatory IS TOO BRUTAL AND WILL CAUSE MASS VIOLENCE!

Road to Purgatory: Want some puppies?

-Tobiuno, confirmed Beta-Account

Oh… My… God…

I think I’ll have to find some puppies and kittens for the Guild-Keep.

Howardlight, confirmed Beta-Account

The Crusade will not falter! How dare you to use puppies to hide your wickedness?

out of character: Where can I get some for myself? Or maybe a kitten. Now, I want a kitten, I can call it Lux, feed it and pet it. That way, I’d serve the light forever.

Snydervine, confirmed Beta-Account

I guess not even a fierce crusader can stand up to the pure power of cuteness.

-Morgana, confirmed Beta-Account-

@Howardlight: Don’t worry, I’d never drag puppies into a fight. Unless the fight is to first giggle, if that’s the case, they rule supreme. And to answer the question where to find such cuteness, don’t think that the “animals” out there are merely that. Some of you might have the power to understand languages, either with magic or innate abilities, try to talk to them.

In my case, I was asked to visit a wolf-city, so to speak, upon helping them and talking to them. There, I met the puppies.

Try talking to your foes, you might be surprised what they have to say.

Oh, and Rachant, if you want brutal, I recently investigated how Centaur-bodies work. Want me to share that? It's really quite fascinating.

Jeanyra, confirmed Beta-Account

What do you mean, talking? Do you have some sort of magic that allows you to understand animals? If so, where did you learn it, would you be willing to share, maybe trade, the information? I’d love to be able to speak with animals. Is that how you managed to tame your Raven?

Please share, I’d love to play with the local wildlife, but most of the time, its too busy trying to take a bite out of my face.

Heracles, Official Pantheon Moderator

What a refreshing change, from all the bloodshed, violence and battle. Pure, lighthearted cuteness, I’ll have to share this one in the office. Far too many players focus on the traditional gaming aspects, rampaging through the world we opened up for you, without regard for its inhabitants. It’s great to see someone interact with them on such an emotional level.

Remember, the beings of Mundus are more than walking EXP-bags. Approach it more like an old-style Pen&Paper Roleplay game, instead of a modern video-game.

Palda Hengar, confirmed Beta-Account

Gods, I want to take her home, feed her and pet her. That’s just too adorable.

Rachant, confirmed Beta-Account

I hope you are talking about one of the puppies, Palda. Even if Morgana is cute in this video, I have to admit that.

And regarding the Centaur-bodies, I think I’ll pass. I shudder at the thought what you consider “investigating” what makes their bodies work. I didn’t like highschool-biology and have no desire to get introduced to the nitty-gritty details.

Terramb, confirmed Beta-Account

Be right back, gotta buy a wolf-plush toy. Who wants one as well?

Ruvas, confirmed Beta-Account

Why are there two-hundred down-votes? Which monster has down-voted the video? How dare you? Do you have no soul?! Those are PUPPIES you are down-voting. Sure, Morgana is a little more controversial, but PUPPIES!

Palda Hengar, confirmed Beta-Account

Terramb, I want one. I might make one of Morgana in my own time, to recreate this adorable scene.

Kiand, confirmed Beta-Account

Just before logging off, I was hunting wolves in Road to Purgatory. Now, I feel like an absolute monster.
