How It Begins
You are a "test rabbit" for CogCo Industries, Incorporated.

You're wearing white fluffy bunny ears, a white fluffy bunny tail, and an open bunny-eared backpack containing a CogCo Omniuseful Adventuring Key. You begin at the entrance to the Toybox where several items await you, including a velvet rope barring your way north.
