Excerpt:
Nisha knew what was in the basket though she could no longer see it and could barely hear it. The \\u201callfeistus\\u201d they were called once. Strange creatures who were thought to have died out until someone rediscovered them. Uncle Nestor said they might still die out. And that\\u2019s why people like him were trying to capture them. Not just to study them. But also to try and preserve them.

Perhaps even try to teach them.

\\u201cBe mindful, niece. The gift is not the creature. The gift is his future friendship\\u2026a thing, I admit, neither you nor I can predict.\\u201d

Episode Art Description: Digitally colored ink drawing.\\xa0 At left, a girl with a bow in her hair, seen from waist up and her right profile. Her right arm is bent, hand perched on the edge of a basket that sits at center. A small scaly tail curves over the edge inches from the girl\\u2019s hand. A scaly arm reaches up from a bundle of blankets. The hand is reaching toward the girl\\u2019s left hand, which is stretched over the basket, holding a cricket.\\xa0 A watermark of the word \\u201cStoryfeather\\u201d lies over the image.
