The Crag Rats
by Knaggs

On a farm underneath a barn, rats rule the dark tunnels of an old unused drainage system. Earning their grains by feeding on the vanity of the horses above. They do this by running words to validate the horses' boasting, acting as external whispers. When external forces take away this safe source of income, expansion becomes imminent. One cunning ruler and her mate drag the rats through. From it something new emerges: The rats start to include other animals. The question is how to do that?
