My name is Tsukiko and I am a fox.
More specifically I am a three-tailed kyubii. Often kyubii have nine tails, but in this day and age that sort of thing is rare, a genetic mutation that promises power and magic beyond what our priests and priestesses can use. For a fox to be born with anything but one tail is a good sign of fortune and strength to a family, and the possibility of becoming a nine tailed kyubii. But the only way of achieving that right is to train our magic.
Which is why I am studying under my father as a priestess. It is his hope that I will one day have the power it takes to become a nine-tailed kyubii and bring great honor to our family. ... It is not so easy a task, especially with no sons to my fatter's name, and I wish my sisters could understand that.
Speaking of my sisters... I have three elder sisters and I'm the baby. They hold a grudge because I had the shod luck of being born with the kyubii genes. I'm the only one my father has trained as a priestess, leaving them to be trained how to be the perfect wife. In a way I can't say I'm envious...
Though I do wish I could search for my own mate... It's something I've always dreamed about, but my father refuses to let me think of such things. For the longest time I had been able to shove such thoughts aside. Until recently... At the edge of the forest out back of the temple I've caught the scent of a wolf. And male at that. It's almost as if he's calling to me... But that's impossible, isn't it? Not that it matters, such ideas are no longer open to me...
