Loon had to admit that her own coat bored her. So, Raven took Loon's needle and her precious stone lamp. Raven used his magic. He dipped the needle in lamp soot. "Sit still," he told Loon. Loon sat, while Raven painted her with magic strokes. Wherever the needle touched her feathered coat, the soot left amazing pattens. "I'm beautiful!" cried Loon, once the painting was done. She turned in a circle, loving her new coat.
