## Description
Aster is a talented mage who lives deep in the forest. Awkward and anti-social, he prefers poring over his potions to speaking with other people, and he's at his happiest when he can conduct his strange magical experiments in peace.

Unfortunately for Aster, however, life isn't that simple. Whilst working on a particularly potent potion, something peculiar happens. A black cat falls from Aster's chimney, filling his home with soot.

In a moment of weakness, Aster decides to take the stray cat in. He's always been more fond of animals than people, and having a catpanion hanging around the house might help brighten up his everyday life.

That's what Aster thinks, at least...

Until he discovers the cute cat which fell down his chimney isn't an ordinary cat at all. He is, instead, a young man called Blaise, who has been cursed to assume the form of a cat during the daytime.

Now, Aster has to try and help Blaise break this curious curse. If he doesn't, Blaise will be stuck as a cat for all eternity, and Aster's pride as a mage will be on the line. It's just one simple curse, after all. How hard could it be to dispel it, really?

...The answer, as it turns out, is very.

This could just prove to be a cat-astrophe!
