Metsys

Adrian Ludens

I ate too much ice cream at the Mexican restaurant. The baby fussed. My wife made a snide remark about the mariachi band.

We were punished.

When we returned home from A Través de la Manada, we discovered that our two oldest kids – one boy and one girl – were gone. Taken.

The Metsys knows best.

I got a new vehicle, a Big Black Truck. It’s as shiny as polished obsidian, with a beastly engine under the hood.

But the two oldest children are gone. The Metsys gives and the Metsys takes away. A harsh lesson, but to whom would I dare complain?

We must remain amiable, moderate and polite. Go along to get along. Those qualities are rewarded.

I can’t remember the names of the older children.
