Yesterday I went into the kitchen to make some coffee, and there was a magical talking leopard waiting for me.
"I need your help!" it said, "You are the Chosen One! You alone can find the Lost Amulet of Zzygrymbar! An epic quest full of danger and excitement awaits!"
“This amulet…is it gold, about the size of my hand, with a glowing blue gem in the center?”
“Uh…yes, actually.”
“It’s over there behind the toaster."
"Oh. So it is. Wow, you're good at this. However can I repay you?"
For a leopard, he made pretty good coffee.
