Kaeri is eager to leave home and wishes he was rich. When he steps out his door one day to collect firewood, he meets a Raven with a tempting offer: to make all Kaeri's dreams come true. Kaeri leaves home without looking back and follows the Raven through forests, fields, thoroughfares, and the Northern Mountains.
