These beasts won't feed themselves.

A puzzleless exhibition. Ten to fifteen minutes.

How it begins

Under heaven they say there’s great wonders numbered either seven or eight. None can seem to agree. Maybe a certain orchard with silver fruit counts, or maybe not. But however the mathematics fall, there’s no doubt that one wonder ranks high in the list, and that would be the queen's menagerie. No beast that’s ever been captured lacks a station in her royal cells.

It may be hard to catch a beast; it’s harder to keep one. Not that the queen does the keeping. She’s got herself a zookeeper for that. Little scabrous fellow named—well, his name’s not important. What matters is that he can open the locks.
