The selkie woman is sewing as fast as she can, stealing snatches of time from tending to the fisherman, their child and their little cottage. Piecing together her new skin stitch by stitch. But it is taking far too long and she can feel herself fading away and drying out. Will she ever get to return to the ocean?
