The mouth of the beast was somewhat open.\nI took my friend outta there with me and we stepped on something solid, but I couldn't determine what it was. We were in a dark place, but we could somehow see ourselves. I took a look back to the mine vorer, seeing him fade away like an ethereal creature. I was perplexed, holding my friend onmy shoulder with all my cubby strenght.\nWhere are we? - asked the racoon.\nI dunno, for sure - I replied.\nAre we dead?\nI bit my arm.\nI'm quite sure we are - I replied.\nWelcome - said a voice.\nAn old anthro dog approached, supposting himself with a hammer.\nDo we know each other? - I ask.\nYou don't know me, but I know you - said the old dog.\nBut who are you?\nThe dog scratched his long beard and gave me a glance.\nI'm Demiurgus - he replied. - I made the world you are used to live in.\nAre you God? - I asked.\nFar from it.\nHe turned away and a few light globes appeared around us.\nThese, my dear, are things called \"ideas\" - he explained. - They are perfect and beautiful. Each idea represents something that live or somehow are in Earth.\nThen, we are in the Ideal World? - I asked, noticing correspondences between that place and Plato's philosophy.\nYes.\nNow I know that catnip is bad for me.\nThe dog giggled and a flyin globe flew to my paws. I could spot a herb inside.\nOh, catnip? - I asked.\nThe idea of catnip. The ideas are perfect, incorruptible, always existed and will always exist - the dog explained again. - My creature, the Mine Vorer, is one of my creations. Everytime he gets something, he brings it to me, só I can avaliate it's value.\nValue for what?\nThe dog turned to me once again.\nThis world is being threatened.\nEh? - I tilted my head in disbelief.\nThe ideas are being stolen by someone who could get into the Ideal World. Who is? Well... it's also a babyfur, like you.\nWhy don't you go after him?\nI can't leave this place. The only creatures who can travel between these two worlds are the Mine Vorer and the thief.\nI was skeptical, the whole story seeming very suspect.\nBut I make everything you see in your wolrd - continued the old dog. - I don't do these things out of nothing; I need the ideas to make sensible matter. Without the ideas, your world will eventually end, as I will be no longer able to make new creatures, new values, new actions.\nOkay, okay, okay, I study Plato and such - I say. - How do you plan to give me in exchange?\nThe dog grinned.\n- I heard you like to paw off - he said.\n \n"}
