Yusya and the Elf

What is a necromancer-for-the-fail who only has a mangy cat and a sister with the firm belief that the cat will win the Royal Exhibition supposed to do? So confident that the deposit is already paid—and the cat… the cat is almost ready. All that’s needed is a little thing: to grow fur and to hide it from one overly curious elf who is passionately trying to protect the animal from human arbitrariness. Yusya will manage. Yusya is strong. She’ll save the kitty from the elf, and the elf from his over-careful mother—and as for what will come out of all that afterward, only the gods know.
