Question

That was twenty-four hours ago. Since then nobody had come near him. The day before, all day

long. He had watched his parents flying about with his brothers and sister, perfecting them in the

art of flight, teaching them how to skim the waves and how to dive for fish. He had, in fact, seen

his older brother catch his first herring and devour it, standing on a rock, while his parents circled

around raising a proud cackle. And all the morning the whole family had walked about on the big

plateau midway down the opposite cliff taunting him with his cowardice.
