Once I Was A Bird

You are human now, but you weren’t always this way. For a large part of your life, you had been cursed to take the form of a bird. Then the curse was broken, and you transformed back into a human. But not before you had been changed by the experience.

You often think back on your past, reminiscing about your time as a bird, and how things are different now. Some changes have been for the better, but there are parts you miss, and others that you regret. To make matters worse, no one around you was a bird. Or had ever been cursed. They just don’t understand. So you have decided to write down your thoughts, to try to articulate what it was like for those who do not know.

The heart of the game is writing answers for each Reflection, which pose a question about your time as a bird, or just after you turned back into a human. Once an answer is selected, write it down and add more details by answering one of two further questions. The details of that answer expand on your Reflection of what it was like to be a bird.
