The Fox Skin

Lelya bowed to the ground, promised to make the ceremony right and respectful, and left the border of the Kingdoms. The girl knew that she would no longer see the sparks between the worlds and that the sparks would not notice Lelya's absence. They will continue to flourish and be. And such thoughts made the girl heavy-hearted.

"People are not some bizarre creatures!" the fox sniffed the edge of Lelya's dress with a sharp nose. "They live like everyone else in this world. They sleep, they eat, like all of us. They like packs and friendly company," the fox said as his black, tight moustache touched the girl's hands. "While the elders are whispering, call her, call the girl and make sure there is nothing bad about people."
