The Fruit Basket
Before the curse. Before the crew. Before the voyage that would scatter everything — there was a morning in Port Calico, a Ratigen den beneath the Old Quarter dock wall, and a corn cob who had absolutely no idea what he was doing.This is the story of how Captain Cobsworth came to own a grand galleon he had no business owning, acquired a purple octopus he did not expect, and discovered a cooking pot that he decided, then and there, was a hat.Some stories begin with a choice. This one begins with a gesture, a throne, and fourteen generations of Ratigen lineage that nobody warned him was about to be recited in his honour.Tales of the Known Wet is dedicated to Pip. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
