Over time, Jackal becomes obsessed with the idea of reaching the moon. He spends his days trying to come up with ways to reach it, but nothing seems to work. As he becomes more and more desperate, he starts to howl at the moon each night, hoping that it will somehow hear him and grant him his wish.
