Their songs had died down with the rising sun, but nowadays they picked up again with a fervor that sounded not unlike despair to my teenage ears.

There were adventures to be had, and it just wouldnt fit to have anyone wake up and tell us to do something and spoil our excitement. He was just a bit shorter than me, but his frame was already starting to contrive into something wider and heavier than mine. I, two years his senior, wouldnt allow him to beat me in a sprint.
