The Coin-Sith

Synopsis

This volume, Dog Tails, is a collection of tales from around the world where our canine friends take centre stage. Apart from the obvious love that we have for dogs (we have two rescued greyhounds in our family), I think that there are a number of compelling reasons for putting this small collection together.
Dogs are widely recognized and loved animals across different cultures and societies. Including them in folk tales makes these stories relatable to people from various backgrounds.

Among the villagers who lived near the edge of the forest was a young girl named Elsie. She had heard tales of the Coin-Sith since she was a child, but she had never encountered the creature herself. Curious and adventurous by nature, Elsie longed to catch a glimpse of the elusive faerie dog and uncover the secrets of the enchanted forest.

One moonlit night, as the mist hung low and the stars twinkled overhead, Elsie ventured into the forest alone, her heart pounding with excitement. She wandered deeper and deeper into the woods, following the faint sound of a haunting melody that seemed to float on the night air.

As she wandered deeper into the forest, Elsie stumbled upon a clearing bathed in moonlight, and there, standing before her, was the Coin-Sith. The creature was even more magnificent than she had imagined, its fur shimmering in the moonlight and its eyes filled with an otherworldly wisdom...
