Jaquery Tattery was born at sea, and he grew up in a town far from the sea, and all he wanted to do was return to the sea.
Genre: Fantasy
Excerpt:
The Tatterys were tailors who started working in town with a
humble business of repairing and refreshing old clothes, and soon
expanded to fine tailoring of clothes and tapestries. Jack learned
the trade of sewing and tailoring from a young age, as his brother
and sister had been required to do before they set out on their
own. He knew he would one day mind the family business. Jack was
proud of his family’s trade and their shop, and he admired what his
parents had built, but so did he admire their courage incoming to a
new land to build a new life. He had never gone on any such
adventure, and feared he never would.
Still, he dreamed.

Episode Art Description: Digital drawing. Part of a sail whose braided border is being pierced by a needle. The sail sits on the lap of a person, at right of image, whose left hand grips a section of the braided border and whose right hand, equipped with a sailmaker’s sewing palm, directs the need through the braid of cloth. An image is stitched onto the sail and is partially visible, the body of a serpent entangled around a boat with one sail unfurled at bottom center and middle. At bottom right, the serpent’s head with mouth parted, looking at the ship.
