((this fable was inspired by the artwork of k schultz))

there was once a mountain lion that collected many odd objects. he was missing only one which was known as the moon flame, he saw it each year during a festival humans had in the forest. he knew that today was the festival, and that all the humans wear animal masks, but the one he seeked wore the fox mask. he called upon the badger, told him if he could find the one who wears the fox mask, take the moon flame, and bring it to him he would reward him. the badger heard of the moon flame and knew the one who possesed it was a master of illiusion. he searched around for the moon flame, but it was no where to be found. the badger was about to give up then he saw someone with a fox mask in the bushes peeking out him with a flame floating next to him. the badger jumped at the in the bush to find that nothing was there. then the badger heard laughing he looked at a branch where he heard the noise expecting to see a human, but was surprised to find an actual fox staring down at him. he then heard a noise behind him and turned to see what it was then turned to the branch to find that the fox and moon flame were both gone.
