The Melon Gem

It's a little bundle of green fur.

That's what I take to be the scenario, at first. Slowly, her head peeks up, and pink eyes gaze at me questioningly. Nubby black horns gleam a bit as she stands up in a wobbly way, and as my leg moves outward in sheer maternal instinct, she falls against my knee.

Tales From Elysian Fields: Neopian Appetites

You’re entering a world as real as you make it out to be; there are no limitations to the possible inputs and outputs.

Arthur: A Weapon's Tale: Part Four
By the ninth day, Arthur was weak and incredibly sore. His dreary eyes glanced quickly at the bruises and blisters that covered his feet. As Art staggered, he fell fast onto the cold ground. The fog in the forest surrounded his rigid body, and he fought to strain his head up. Art could see the flicker of some gold up ahead, and he slowly heaved his body forward, lacking the strength to stand back up.

The Fire Within: Part Nine
Only a few hours after Yardly emerged from the Magma Pool, Marbelle decided it was time to storm Moltara City.
