Life's Dream — Bernard Doove

On post Gene Wars Earth, many anthropomorphic species share the ravaged world with humans. Amongst the species created to help rebuild their world were the foxtaurs - vulpine based centauroids bred to be the caretakers of the unspoiled lands remaining. They were an imperfect species though and evolved traditions and social practices to cope, many differing widely from human ones. Then one day a lonely and hurting man strays into foxtaur territory and crosses paths with an equally lonely foxtaur vixen. Their world would never be the same.
