Tum! Ta Tum Tum! Every year the bear-tribe of Teddy Kingdom assembles to dance around the fire in celebration of life. The drums beat out a steady rhythm and the paws of bears stomp on the ground, raising dust into the air. All members of the tribe bring forth the best of their possessions as an offering, and one bear in particular, has been looking forward to this night for months. Dakota Bair makes beautiful pots, and he has a very special pot to give this year. He used a glaze passed down to him by generations of pot makers that is only used in reverence of the gods, because it is the best glaze known in Teddy Kingdom. He made the pot as perfect as possible, then added a small flaw, to show that perfection belongs to the gods alone. This year, Dakota Bair will be the youngest bear to offer a gift of such importance!
