Like many other too-small-to-fit species, these super-sized breeds appeared eons ago through artificial efforts

Now I'm imagining some ancient elf wizard drunk as hell making Fuckable Dire Squirrels TM to sell at the side of the road.

Probably getting too invested in the lore but now I'm curious to see the other breeds of animal that were created through selective breeding. A farmyard lineup with lore blurbs perhaps?

Probably not so much drunk as just horny xD

Definitely a lot of the mustelids , red pandas too. Some birds. I was thinking about trying something with a huge rat, curious to see how that would end up looking lol

Pet shops in Midria must be fucking wild to experience

While I haven't really sat down and given it serious thought, the nature and vibes that I get as I imagine the world would have me thinking there are no pet shops.

For the elite class, their bevy of servants and other hires would likely include a beastmaster responsible for procurement. For everyone else, self sufficiency with whatever can be found locally is the norm (or a friend that can do this). That is, taming and animal handling in general is a widely practiced and well understood skill, culturally. If you want something else, you'd likely see an entourage of non-native critters accompanying the traders that come and go. But they don't really settle down into a shop, it's more like a street bazaar sort of thing.

It's begging to create a story in this universe! Of course, with you (the originator of the idea) as the main consultant.
I sincerely hope that someone will one day establish such cooperation with you - either on your initiative or on their own!

For me, I really like the idea, it brings up my own ideas and developments, for example when recently a book featured wolf characters from Indian mythology - Bhava and Śarva - my reinterpretation would fit into your universe.
But English is not my native language and I would have a big problem at the translation stage:/

I love those cheeky beard hair grabs! (I'm stroking my beard as I say this...)

Thanks! A story would be fun yeah. I dabble a bit in AI writing but I've never really done any serious narrative with it before.

She can't be everywhere at once to impose judgment, not with all the lewding going on!

I am reminded of The Sword in the Stone...
