They soon approached a clearing which seemed like an excellent place for a meeting, except that a group of a half dozen people was already there, around a single long hut with a grass-thatched roof. An old man naked to the waist sat on the ground, leaning over a large book. His curved back was deeply tanned, implying that this was a common position for him. Two children around the age of nine stood six feet apart from each other, as if playing, but frozen in place. Three women who could easily have been daughter, mother and grandmother wandered aimlessly around the clearing, speaking to themselves.

In the year 577, the Mad are people exiled from civilization, due to their unusual, and sometimes dangerous, behavior. They spend a lot of time in trances or asleep, though there are periods of lucidity, and they occasionally speak in riddles.

They believe, for example, that the sun rises each morning only because. Everything's a god to him. But do mind him, because everything he says is pertinent. See?

Corbyn is a 19 year old man with straw colored hair (indeed his thick locks greatly resemble a thatched roof upon his brow). He is quite thin and has rather spindly limbs that are nevertheless quite agile. Despite his youth, he wears the short robes of a scholar over his breeches and introduces himself as a tutor for hire. He prefers scarlet cloth for his robes and more pedestrian materials for his trousers. relaying a tale about languages of all things, though at least it was a story about a hapless traveler insulting the mothers of a tribe of herdsman because he got the words wrong.

“There's not much to say. We come here, or we're brought here, when we can't live with normal people anymore. Once we're here, we never leave, except every few years one of us goes to another enclave. People give us food and other things we need, and we give them answers or riddles in exchange. This enclave has been here for a long time, back to Gornorleren's day at least. We – oh, sorry.” She ended abruptly, slipping into a trance. Her legs relaxed, falling awkwardly to one side, and she reflexively closed her eyes against the sun. To all appearances, she was asleep.

There were none he could easily find, so he used his cloak. Then he waited and observed the enclave while he turned over the concept of the “second path” in his mind. He could be exceedingly patient when circumstances called for it, something his father never really understood. Tyrg had accused his youngest son of being intelligent but unable to focus on important things, even if the boy could spend a solid week reading a set of treatises on the natural world. What mattered was the prospect of learning something new. If he already understood a concept, Corbynplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigCorbyn Wren

The abilities and experiences of the Mad, this was something new and he would happily wait. These Mad were quite interesting but it seemed like the price they paid for their gifts was a high one, essentially being banished to small enclaves on the fringe of civilization. But it also offered them the opportunity to live free.

Description
In the year 577, the Mad are people exiled from civilization, due to their unusual, and sometimes dangerous, behavior. They spend a lot of time in trances or asleep, though there are periods of lucidity, and they occasionally speak in riddles. These riddles are considered by many to be prophesy, and some seek out the Mad in order to learn of their own futures or pasts.. It sounded like the lovely young girl could see into the present, which probably meant having visions of other places in the world. He guessed the other residents had waking dreams leading them into the past or the present. It was an interesting prospect, but while Corbynplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigCorbyn Wren

It already hit close enough to home. Being honest with himself, he knew there were times when his mind operated on an unseen level, at least for brief periods, like when just the right words for talking an overly inquisitive guardsman down popped into his head unbidden, or when he just knew what the tumblers inside a lock looked like despite them being hidden under a metal latch. He wondered if being one of the Mad felt like that, but on a much grander scale.
