In a sunlit meadow near a prosperous village, there lived a jackdaw with feathers as black as midnight. He was a clever bird, quick-witted and observant, but like all jackdaws, he was always on the lookout for an easier way to find his meals than the usual foraging.
One fine morning, as the jackdaw was flying over the village square, he noticed something that made him pause mid-flight. Below, a kindly old man was scattering handfuls of plump wheat grains for a flock of beautiful white doves. The doves cooed contentedly as they pecked at the feast, their white feathers gleaming in the sunlight.

In the same village lived a sleek gray cat with striking green eyes. This cat was no ordinary feline; she was unusually beautiful and graceful, even for her kind. She had noticed the young fisherman and developed a peculiar affection for him. Each evening when he returned with his catch, she would appear at his door, waiting patiently for the small fish he would inevitably offer her.
