PROLOGUE: NEW BAOGINNINGS
Stepping into the cozy office, you spot a well-dressed baobear sitting behind a desk. They smile at you, gesturing for you to come in!
"Nice to meet you! You must be the newest visitor to New Bao City, right? Bao the baobear, at your service! My job here is to help you get settled in! We have a lot of ground to cover, so let's not waste anymore time!

[1] ★ Explore!
"Before you can wander around the city, we'll need to get your registration sheet and recipe card sorted!" So saying, Bao begins to shuffle around a bunch of papers... it doesn't look like they know what they're doing, exactly. "Hm." Bao says, after another round of shuffling. "I seem to have lost the forms!"
They don't seem to be too concerned about this, however. "Say, could you do me a favor? If you could have a quick look around outside, I may have left them there!"

Task:

[2] ★ Create your personal tracker
"Did you find it?" Bao waddles over on all fours, peering over your shoulder. "There, that's the one! Good job! I knew I could count on you!" Bao quickly swipes the forms from your paws and heads over back to their office, looking back occasionally to make sure you're following!
Once you've both returned to your seats, Bao slides over a handful of documents towards you. "Now, if you could fill out these forms for me..."

[3] ★ Create a recipe card for your baobear
There is an inordinate amount of forms to fill, you soon find out! Once finished, Bao quickly checks over your papers to make sure everything is in order...
"Everything looks good to me!" Bao says, nodding in approval. "There's just one last thing!" Rummaging through their drawer, Bao pulls out a shiny camera and points it at you. "We'll need to take a photo for your Recipe Card! Say bao!"

[5] ★ Side story: Counting Sheep
Both you and Bao have worked so hard today! You deserve a break, don't you? Perhaps we should take a quick nap, then we'll get back to business! Bao drags you to a side room, where a bunch of fluffy pillows have been laid down on the floor.
Except... a soft bleating informs you that these are not, in fact, pillows, but the ever so infamous Babaos! They gather around the both of you, forming the most comfortable bed you've ever slept on!
As you both reminisce about your day, you find yourself dozing off to sleep...
