The head and paws of a gray tabby cat, sitting in the topmost nest of a cat tree. He is looking over the edge at something in the middle distance. His forepaws are white and holding onto the edge of the nest. Think Kilroy but a cat.
A gray tabby kitten with an imperious, disapproving expression, reclining on a couch amidst pillows and blankets.
A dirt road of pale reddish sand, rapidly narrowing from the viewer's perspective as it descends into a flat, open area and vanishes in the distance. To either side, the green of grass, brush, and low-growing trees. The sky above is blue with puffy individual clouds.

A trail of raccoon tracks across rippled sand. The tracks are in patterns of four: a front foot, another front with the opposite hind landing on top of it, and then a hind foot. This is characteristic of a lope or galloping pattern.

A page with the following text: “Dinadan rode until finally he came to a land where the names Arthur and Camelot had no meaning at all and produced only puzzled looks, and there he rested from his travels. He didn’t know it, but by then he was the very last knight of the Round Table still alive. All the others were gone. And when at last his time came, too, he lay down on a hot dry hill in the shade of an ancient silvery-leafed olive tree, alone except for his horse, and a single tiny perching bird that almost seemed to glow from within, as if it had swallowed a star, though it could just as easily have been a trick of the light.”
