The story
Snatcher is a polite, thoughtful Goop until he sees something he can't resist, then he just snatches it. Swimming with Backwardia, he spots something golden between the rocks and pulls until it comes loose, and the water turns into a swirling golden whirlpool.
He lands on a sheet of ice in Greenland with one hand covered in gold, and a mother reindeer warns him that a wandering spirit called a qivittoq will come looking for him at the full moon.
