"Three days later."
Ellie has been hungry and alone trapped in the locker for 11 days now. She assumed someone would have come for her but no one ever did at first she tried shouting out for help but no one was outside. So she took out her snacks and water bottle and rationed them over the last few days. Sadly they weren't enough but they are enough to keep her alive. The only thing that made her cheer up is the little egg and the light that appears to get stronger with every day even escaping the box she cradles. Maybe this little one can help her when it wakes up? She has no clue what is inside the egg but it's got to be special if the light is any indicator let alone the fact the egg is capable of glowing on its own the fact the light is capable of breaking out the box is very impressive as the box is made to survive even a few tons of pressure and it is airtight. Ellie gently opened up the box and stared at it. Hope lit up in her eyes she was sure this little one could save her if no one ever came.
---At the same time within the egg---
My eyes open up and I see the waning emerald glow. Taking stock of my current progress I can see my body is slowly becoming solid bit by bit and the general shape of my body is becoming more detailed and clear. Looking down I spot a blurry ill-defined dick. Yep male. Still on the fence about whether the M before my race means mutant or male though may have nothing to do with my gender. I mean Alex said the Blumest race has blue mist right? However, most of my mist has slowly become greener over these two weeks or so. It started as a faint blue but within the first couple of days it became faintly green at first I just assumed it was the glow of my light but one time I had forgotten to clean up all my extra mist that I created and saw that it was green in nature. Then I noticed that I was getting greener. My body is sleek and scale-less a bit like a dragonling with no scales or a fat gecko with wings. I'm somewhat cute. Definitely none threatening. I don't know my general size as I have no reference point but I'ma assume I'm quite small Alex already said that the creature I'll be in, in this lifetime will be about the size of my leafbirds from before. Welp Alex status, please.

Oh yeah, two of my skills leveled up a couple of days back didn't they... I guess I was too engrossed in training. Well, Alex let's see if anything has changed? Start with the mist art skills btw I don't think I've checked them since they leveled either.

Honestly don't know what I was expecting there... but it wasn't nothing? Huh, vague as shit my dudes.
Wait? Did my body's exp stop rising? Hmm, guess I got to leave to gain more? Well, I am close. Just a small amount more. A day at most till the thick mist is all gone and I am entirely solidified. Soon it'll be your time eggshell I'ma murder you real soon... Well, I guess I need to get my days training started still don't wanna come out weak now do I? I will probably not get as much training time tomorrow as I'll need my health if I run into any predators can't waste it all away on making mist. My regeneration is up and I got a bit extra mana maybe I should try training a bit of light now. Can't make a huge change in one day of work with my other stuff anyways. Quickly I took out 38 separate clouds and begin to move them about and make myself a little play like usual before I begin using my light to brighten up the show. With a flash the world glows in a bright emerald light that I had grown so used to it was the color of my home for so many months... How long was I a tree? Was it like years? I'm not a 100% as most of that went by too fast I guess. Well... Oh shit... Mana...
Struggling to stay awake I look at my now empty mana and can't help but smile... I just used all my mana and didn't pass out? Little victories. GOD DAMMIT, this is so tiring. No wonder I passed out immediately before. Well... it's fading quick. Guess it's a part of regeneration. Looking over at Alex I check my stats.
"Hp: 14/48 Mp: 3.49/10.69"
Wait... my health shot up a lot from my mist just now... Also, mana increased a bit more than usual. I guess weakest would be the first option? Also, regeneration has really sped up with 1 level wow. Guess I'll have a lot of training today.

Woken by the light Ellie blinks a little confused then sees the glowing egg slowly going out. A couple of minutes later it flashes again staying lit for a short few seconds then a couple of minutes later lights up again. Her eyes slowly went from cloudy and groggy to wide open as she smiles with her dry cracking lips and gently rubs the egg hope being the only thing she could see. Soon she will be out of here. Sitting patiently alone in that dark space as the light flashes she stares the whole day at the little egg the light gently touching her skin as the dry cracked skin slowly falls off her lips. She doesn't notice that she is healing slightly as she is simply enthralled by the egg. Eventually, the light stops, and Ellie catches her breath, and unlike she expected the egg doesn't crack but slowly begins to shrink and morph.

Expecting to be able to break out by morning I didn't expect that after my day of training my little green eggshell would begin to shrink in on itself slowly wrapping around me whilst my consciousness slowly slips away.
