Often, they end with the character being transformed back to their original form. For example, through finding a magic antidote or by the kindness of another magical being.

Many inanimate transformation stories end with a sense of wonder and a new equilibrium. Say a rusty old key turns into a magic key that unlocks a hidden door to a wonderful land.

Often, they start with the introduction of the character in their original state. For example, in 'Watership Down', we first meet the rabbits in their warren.

Their animal forms influence how they face these challenges, like how rabbits might use their speed and burrowing skills.

In Native American cultures, the transformation into an eagle might represent the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment, which is a highly valued concept in their culture. These stories pass on cultural values from one generation to another.
