I finally read Neil Gaiman's Dreamhunters, which is a favourite amongst fans seeking his autograph. It's a beautiful story, which to put simply, is about a white fox which fell in love with a monk keeping guard over a desolate mountainside temple. The fox did her best to save the monk's life at the expense of her own, but in the end, he chose to die to save her. Nothing was for naught cos lessons were learnt.

Strangely I can understand how the fox felt.
