Description
"There there, little one. You are safe here with me in the forest."

The character of Skunk is based on an imaginary guardian that I had as a child. She first appeared in a dream of mine where I had been wandering through the forest. I soon crossed paths with Skunk, a goddess who looked like how I imagined an adult version of myself to look, and unfortunately for me, she didn't want to be disturbed. Annoyed by my presence, she placed a curse on me, one that could not be cured and would never go away. After this, she became a recurring character in future dreams.

In subsequent dreams, I would plead for mercy and forgiveness, only for her to ignore me. One day, she had decided that I had suffered enough, and chose to forgive me and remove the curse. She also saw how much pain I was in, how miserable the real world had made me, and she chose to become my friend and guardian. The real world was unkind to me, but in my dreams and my daydreams, Skunk, imaginary as she was, provided the comfort, warmth, understanding, love, kindness, and friendship that did not exist for me in the real world. In times when life was at its absolute bleakest, when abuse was eating away at my sanity, and I had nothing but the world inside my mind, she helped me to cope with the horrors of life.

Skunk was the person I wanted to be when I grew up.

In the world of Shining Silver Starlight, Skunk has been altered into a character with more depth, rather than existing simply as my imaginary guardian. Instead of meeting Skunk, the real world me has a dream where I am wandering through the forest and encounter a strange imp named Lumstigethers, an elder god resembling a scarecrow, that lives in the dream world. I tell him that I want to die, but he offers me a new life, one that I would enjoy, as a goddess in another world.

When I accept this offer, he reveals his true intentions, that he has used me in order to create a link that would allow him to escape from the dream world and wreak havoc on reality one day. I quickly forget this, however, as I am whisked away to another world, the world of Galmiun, where I awaken as an adult goddess named Skunk with no memory of this past life, save for a few vague images and voices that I don't recognize. It is at this point that Skunk diverges from the real world me and finds herself on a very different path, leading to her becoming a rather different person from myself.
