We emerged from a box on a long, wooden table in a dimly-lit room. We turned to see a long line of boxes to our right and left. We saw Lazarai's tail disappear into a box, 9 boxes to our left.
Lula and I swirled over-as we passed over the boxes along the way, we noticed they each led to different Pocket Worlds of indoor and outdoor areas. I raised my eyebrow at the box containing a Pocket World of a highway where many beds on wheels traveled around, each carrying sleeping ferrets.
I gasped as I passed over the box containing a junkyard full of enflamed gothic ferret dolls that reminded me of Valladonna's dolls. One fell from the sky, hit the ground, and turned to ashes.
ABOUT THIS COMPILATION
The Ferret Universe: Box of the Synthesized Ones (Official Compilation - Entries 1-96) is a compilation of short-story entries that take place when the ferret-only Universe of Ferretopia is in "Box Status." When Ferretopia is in Box Status, all worlds are accessed through boxes. And the fate of Ferretopia depends on what Zaden, Lula, and Lazarai decide to do with four Synthesized Ferrets: Cole, Nelly, Aris, and Micaiyah.
DISCLAIMER: Each entry takes place after the preceding one, but all entries can be read as stand-alone pieces in any order. Whether you are in the mood to read something short and sweet, or explore a longer series of intriguing sequential events, this compilation gives you the best of both worlds.
Additionally, as with all series by M.B. Dalson, a happy ending for all characters is already set, positive components of characters' core traits will not change, and relationship statuses and positive components of characters' relationship dynamics will not change throughout the collections.
These entries are therefore meant to be a series of events that capture special moments, lighthearted moments, heavy moments, themes, or character dynamics, rather than tell a single narrative.
