It follows the journey of a Mighty Eagle who, admiring the agility of a Great Whale gliding within the vast ocean, foolishly desires to possess the fins, spout, and tail of the whale to swim in the deep.

In an attempt to achieve her desire, the Mighty Eagle implores the Great Whale to teach her to swim. To school the Mighty Eagle in a lesson in humility, he sends her off on an impossible mission to fetch a star from the sky, as payment. As a result, the Mighty Eagle almost loses her life. To avoid death herself, she in turn, with great cunning, appeals to the vanity of several other creatures to enlist them in saving her from her own plight. To do this, she sends each of them off on impossible quests.

In the end, though enlightened by their own struggles, they all are left to persist within the potential of their own creation.
