this is about meeting between a storyteller and a mysterious vintage clothes salesmen, a feline looking gentleman who, when pleased or contented, would make a dark rumbling sound in the back of his throat. this gentleman had a trully remarkable item of clothing for sale. a black velvet waistcoat into which was embroidered, in gold thread as fine as a baby's eyelash, every story ever imagined.
in his foolish haste to secure such an item the storyteller signed the dreaded document. the one with the minor detail regarding the real price. he rushed home eager to have a look at the fine detail in the garment.
in fact the salesman was a cat. a salacious creature by the name of morgiano who was the familiar of an old, blind, deaf, mute witch who spent her silent nights threading the garment with the tales she had overheard over the centuries: flying low over the taverns, listening in on the stories being told to children at bedtime... she had heard a lot over the centuries and remembered everything perfectly. but that was all in the past. now she just had her memories. morgiano. and the waistcoat. perhaps the only thing keeping her alive.
morgiano was always broke and money flew from his pockets like the birds in trees when they saw him coming. he had taken to selling off the old witch's personal effects. he had sold everything he could. the house was empty except for a rocking chair next to the fire and the crone's bed onto which he indignantly curled up every night. and the waistcoat. his idea was to replace it with something he was watching on ebay. it looked about the same. he was certain to get it for the reserve price. the loathsome drab wouldn't notice the difference.
now he had the cash and had swindled the storyteller into siging a contract for a 99.9999999% share of any profits that resulted from the telling of any story featured on the waistcoat. including movie rights and merchandising. 'clever morgiano' he thought to himself as he licked the side of his hand, rubbing it behind his ear as he pulls an iphone out of his green velvet jacket to check his facebook.
