Su, born in prison, has always wanted to see the "crow" from what her mother told her. On the day she was to be secretly executed, Gill, an artificial intelligence with a database of everything outside the prison, was thrown into prison for a test run. Su develops a special feeling for Gill, not caring whether her words are programmed or self-conscious, and not trying to tell if she has human emotions. Unable to distinguish her own human feelings... in this small cell, the lonely Su got her first doll--she met a "person" who could comfort her soul.
