 Little short fantasy story of half-breed Oona the mapmaker and her white employer (more like captor or kidnapper). Not surprisingly, Oona is emotionally abused by the employer and incapable of escaping without causing harm to her family. Ultimately she calls upon the spirits for help, and since it's only a 30 minute read you'll have to see for yourself what ensued. Very cool, descriptive language in the writing, and even the 18 footnotes are pretty interesting.
