The Gem Is Alive!

"Oh, hey, thanks for that," you hear a voice say as you get your sulk on.

"What?" you exclaim, perking your head up. You ears waggle around. It's going to take some time getting used to that.

"I said, Thanks!" the voice continues. "You'd think someone with such big ears would have better hearing. Anyways, you did me a solid, so I guess I could do one for you..."

You blink and get to your feet. "Uh..." This is all getting a bit much. You hike up your pants a bit. With your new shorter stature and lack of, uh, manhood, they're pretty baggy.

"I'm the Gem, silly." Can inanimate objects sigh? Maybe. This once certainly did. You look down to where you left the gem on the floor. It's starting to pulse slightly with light. It continues: "I can't undo the fundamental changes the witch made, so you're always going to be that height, have those ears and tail, and be technically female, but I can change pretty much anything else about you."

"Really? The witch said you were powerful so..."

"Don't believe the hype kid. It's a magic thing. Only the caster of a spell can undo it. I can't grant wishes, either, only change existing objects. Watch..."

The Gem pulses with light and part of the broken chandelier begins to stretch and grow, turning into a full length mirror. Another part grows into a lamp, filling the castle room with soft white light.

"Right then. Let's see what we have to work with. Take a look into the mirror and tell me what you see and what you'd like to change about it."

You take a good look at the new you for the first time, screw up your courage, and start to speak.
