ExpandA stag was walking through the night, through the Carnival of Ragosa. Around him was a throng of animals, their eyes gleaming strange and human beneath the masks: boars and eagles, swans and frogs. There was laughter and embracing: tonight of all the nights in the world, nothing was forbidden. )
