You are standing by a tree
There are 3 paths.
One appears to go to a jungle,
one appears to go to a cave,
one appears to go to a beach,
you could try and climb the tree,
there is a nearby shop you could go in,
or you could do something else.
So what's its going to be?

Journey Into The Sands
You have just put on your virtual reality headset in order to play the new hit game, Journey Into The Sands. It is supposed to have a vast array of characters to choose from and very detailed graphics. When you first look around, you notice that you seem to be standing in a ruined temple. The options detailing what characters you can choose from are floating just in front of you.
There are highly customizable human characters, but you decided it would be boring to play as you always are. The sheer variety is astounding, but you end up choosing the Sphinx character because it seems like the most practical for this type of adventure. As interesting as it would be to select randomly, you don’t think much good could come of it, so you reach forward and select the Sphinx. It should come in both male and female form, so you won’t have a problem.
Your body begins to transform instantly, starting at your feet. They form into paws and fur sprouts out of your skin like wild grass, moving up your legs quickly. While it doesn’t hurt when your bones reshape themselves, it is still an odd feeling when that forces you onto all fours. Your hands have become paws too, sharp claws protruding out of them, making it difficult to grab onto anything. Wings force their way out of your back and then rest by your side while a long tail grows out from your lower back. Every part of you is covered in fur except for your face, although your scalp is still covered in regular human hair, it seems longer than normal. Despite all the other changes, the most odd sensation is around your chest. The only way to describe it is that it feels heavier than it usually does, and you can feel it more clearly than your new limbs.
With the current state of your body, it is immensely difficult to look down at yourself, but a short walk through the temple leads you to a small pool filled with water clear enough for you to view yourself. You are shocked to see that despite the fact that you are a male in real life, the body you are now in has a far more feminine appearance. While it is covered in cloth resembling ancient Greek garments, your chest protrudes further than possible unless you now have breasts. You look at your face next and notice that your nose has become more slender, your cheekbones higher, and your lips more full. Even your skin seems different, more smooth and flawless than you ever thought possible. Hair falls down past your shoulders in beautiful curls that match the color your hair has always been and while you could appreciate this on anyone else, it is not how you are supposed to look.
You gasp aloud from shock only to realize that even your voice has changed. It sounds higher pitched than normal, an even somewhat musical. The fact that every aspect of you has changed is not something that you had prepared yourself for. Sure, you had experimented with female bodies in other virtual reality games before, but it had never been so realistic.
In a fit of panic, you reach up to pull off your VR headset, but it doesn’t budge at all. You look around and see that all traces of buttons similar to the options menu you saw before are gone, so there is nothing to get you out of here. Nothing could have ever prepared you for this situation, making you feel incredibly trapped and vulnerable here. You look back into the water, taking in the fact that this is what you will look like until you get out of this game.

Get moving
It takes you an hour of searching the hall where you had spawned to come to terms with the fact that you will be stuck here for awhile. Now that you think of it, this experience has also been far more realistic than any other virtual reality game that you have played in the past. Never before have you been able to really feel the texture of the stone ground beneath your feet or the way a soft breeze blows through your hair. In other circumstances, this experience would be truly marvelous.
Deciding that there might be answers outside of this area, you venture out of the crumbling temple and see high dunes of sand surrounding you. True to its name, the game has placed you in the middle of a desert with no clear end. You think that it would be the best to climb one of the dunes to see if you can spot any nearby landmarks that you can travel towards.
You attempt to test out your wings by flying over the dunes before you realize that you have no idea of how to use them. A few efforts get them to flutter a bit, but you are nowhere near strong enough to lift yourself up yet. Hopefully, you will be able to get better at flying with some practice.
The first welcome discovery you make since your arrival here is that your paws make climbing the scorching sand easier and more bearable than it would have been with regular feet. Once you reach the top of the dune, you are taken aback by just how far the sand stretches. Fortunately, the vague outline of a city can be seen on the horizon. You might even be able to make it there before the sun sets if you move quickly.
