Description
It's just another ordinary day in Mythrealm, and while Present Night Guard and Selena are in Roguetown, it seems that nothing can go wrong. That is, until Queen Sphinxette shows up looking for trouble (and articles for her collection). Unfortunately for her and her Anu entourage, she is stomped into the ground by the duo, so hard that a battle doesn't even commence. At the behest of her minions, she beats a hasty retreat, while the victorious duo neglect to celebrate, so insignificant was the battle...

Meanwhile, Queen Sphinxette soon finds herself lost in Gloomwood Forest. Not an uncommon predicament, but it seems that her day simply can't get any worse. That is, until a mysterious hooded merchant happens across her. She is surprised that the merchant doesn't know who she is (the queen of Sphinxy Sands and arch-enemy of Present Night Guard (and Selena)). The merchant isn't bothered however, and offers her a potion to cure her greatest problem. In Sphinxette's case, such a problem just so happens to be getting beaten by the duo every time, and despite protests from her minions, drinks the potion without hesitation. The first sign of trouble is her abrupt transformation into Dobinxette, a feat only possible through certain magic. The issue quickly escalates however, as she begins uncontrollably inhaling everything around her, including her unfortunate entourage, Captain of the Guard Anu among them. Naturally, this takes her right back to Roguetown, and the duo, with predictable results. With the carnage over, she promptly collapses on the spot and loses consciousness...

Present Night Guard wakes up in some strange, squishy bush-like blob, and after considerable effort, manages to free himself, allowing him to explore his surroundings. Before long, he comes across another such blob, with a pair of wriggling black hooves sticking out of it. Pulling on the hooves, he is knocked back into the ground by something small, round and fluffy. Regaining his composure, he finds himself face to face with Shepa, who explains that she was visiting Mythrealm to see what all the fuss was about, before finding herself being inhaled by Dobinxette. This sparks a sudden realisation in Present Night Guard, who quickly reconsiders his every action. Shepa guesses that everyone else must be around somewhere, and the two of them go looking.

Surely enough, they soon find Selena in a similar predicament, and Present Night Guard begins to wonder just how many bushy blobs there are for people to get stuck in. However, this blob is somewhat different, as it forms into two Goolenos, prompting a battle.

This first battle acts as a tutorial for the duo, explaining how they can attack and defend by either jumping or hammering their targets. The two enemies in this area demonstrate this. Goolenos attack by trying to ram their targets, requiring them to jump over them to avoid the charge. Alternatively, they can jump on the Gooleno to counter the attack instead. Elite Goolenos have durable helmets that protect them from attacks from above, such as the duos' jump attacks. As such, their charge must be countered with a hammer counter instead of a jump.

Whilst exploring the area, the duo learn their first special attack, Rally Ball, which involves them kicking a rally ball back and forth between them, eventually culminating in one last powerful kick to deal additional damage. This attack can only hit ground-based targets, but is not affected by spikes.

Eventually the duo manage to escape the Receiving Area, allowing them to navigate between the various areas inside of Dobinxette. One such area is a small shop area, where several Roguetown residents and a number of Anu have formed a shaky 'alliance' to scavenge what they can, selling it to the duo for a small fee. One of the Anuu mentions what appeared to be a major nerve nearby, and the duo investigate. Selena comes up with the 'inventive' idea to smack it with a hammer, sending a massive shock throughout Dobinxette's nervous system, and waking her up rather abruptly...
