“How dare you leave me? This won’t do.”
On his seventh birthday, Killian sneaks out of the banquet hall and stumbles upon a quail egg about to hatch. A quail in a raptor habitat? He takes the frail-looking creature in, planning to raise it just enough to set it free. But why can’t it fly? Are you even a bird? The quail, oblivious to its caretaker’s intentions, is smitten with the beautiful Killian and follows him around devotedly. After many years together, will Killian ever be able to let the quail go?
