There in the rush of timeless water,

we find a young man of the bear tribe,

people of the green palm,

followers of the hidden water bear.

He watches the world through eyes like river stones, his face, as if carved by the many gods during a flash of lightning,

blood more soil than water.

We find him now in the last days, before he set down the path of many

names, when he was known only as Timo, a young soul whose great wish was to fill the air with sound as the rosy ink of dawn spilled across the sky. Woohoo!

Pimo, are you completely mad?

I don't know, Rune? Perhaps!

But if this is madness, let me be mad!

You should feel this current!

You want the business to come?

You'll let him come.

Perhaps I'll get him to smile for once.

If you can't put him from their traps like this, Timo. Oh, stop bleeding like a goat and come help me. What good's a friend if you won't jump into the waters with you? What good is a friend if you won't jump into the waters with you? Oh, good, your ears are working. What that your courage did too? I will not stand for these insults. This room! I nearly have it open. Just hand me the... Go! Go! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! That is cold! Oh! And it goes amazing. Come on! Get in, friend! Look at soon! I would not be tempted to death by anyone who isn't a fine woman with a pair worth drowning.

Okay, calm yourself.

I just got to open this idiot latch here.

Pimo, you're driving the fish, man.

Oh, ha, ha ha ha.
