The letter you've been anxiously awaiting now sits in your claws.
You peel back the wax seal with your beak and open it:

*At the Academy, you will learn knowledge beyond your years and refine your hunter skills to deadly accuracy, among other things, on your journey to becoming an upstanding member of the owl society.*
*Only the best will succeed in the Academy.*
*Only the best will succeed in life.*
[[You will do great things. ->Stage 2: First Quarter]]

You have been selected to attend the most prestigious Academy and you still can't believe it! Your mama gave a hoot of joy when she heard the news.
You are the pride of your forest.

You were selected to attend the most prestigious Academy... How could you have lost this opportunity???
Back then, your mama gave a hoot of joy when she heard the news. She hasn't spoken to you since you came back.
You were the pride of your forest.

You keep working.
More than anyone else, until you become top of your class. You get awarded the top award and a full ride scholarship to O.W.L University.
You just have to keep your grades up for the rest of your time at the Academy.
You got this.
[[Just. Keep. Working. Hard ->Stage 4: Third Quarter]]
[if passage.visits > 1]
You're exhausted.
You feel like a failure.
You've been kicked out of the Academy and lost your scholarship to O.W.L. University.
No matter how hard you worked, it wasn't enough.

Work piles up, teachers expect more, and there's not enough time in the night. You can never seem to catch up and your mental health begins to take a toll.
Your grades drop significantly.
You start to loose hope.
[[Give up. ->Stage 1: New Moon]]
[if passage.visits > 1]
You spend many sleepless days worrying about the future. You won't be able to get a job, not even as a mouse-hunter out in the fields.
You look back at the rejection letter that destroyed your world.
