"Besides, too high a price has been placed on harmony. We cannot afford to pay so much for admission. And indeed, if I am an honest man, I'm bound to hand it back as soon as possible.

Яowan was born in Bristol, but soon moved to London, then Swindon (a town with an escape velocity exceeding the speed of light) and eventually Birmingham. He currently resides in the beautiful wastelands of Tanygrisiau. He is a pretentious writer (often employing the third person to self aggrandise) and avid reader. Rejecting school at six he decided the only person competent enough to teach him was himself.
