Greyling

No picture to add for this one. I searched everywhere on the web! :-(

A fisherman and his wife long for a child. One day, while at sea, the fisherman rescues a baby seal from a sandbar, wraps it in his clothing, and brings it home to care for it. The wife rushes to help and unwraps the cloth to find the seal pup is now a baby boy with grey eyes and hair.

They learn he is a legendary selchie, and decide to raise him, but ask that he never go in the sea. This works out until the fisherman is caught in a terrible storm and only one person can rescue him, but at what expense?
