Some things in life were a given. It was a given that the sols were the
bridge between the dwellers and the gods. It was a given that some of
them would become gods, after they died—while the rest of us would only
become ash. It was a given that they would always be more important, and
that the dwellers would remain their slaves until there were no dwellers left,
and the sols had taken over everything.
It was also a given that I’d never be picked to go to Blesswood
Academy, because I never got picked for anything. I was still going to go to
the selection ceremony, though. To support Emmy. She would get picked.
She was smart like that, and lucky like that, and people loved the hell out of
her. They didn’t love the hell out of me; they ran the hell away from me. It
wasn’t like I was a bad person or anything, I just … had a lot of accidents. I
didn’t mean accidents like I ate glue and then peed myself on a regular
basis. I just tripped more than usual, and accidently set things on fire more
than what would be considered ‘normal’. I got kicked out of the village
school only one moon-cycle before graduation for accidently making one of
the teachers bald. How do you accidently make someone bald? That’s a
good question. All you really need is a bucket of warm tar to accidently toss
onto the back of their head. How do you get a bucket of warm tar? You
don’t go looking for it or anything—or at least I didn’t. It was just sitting on
the road outside the school and I thought I should carry it inside to ask what
it was.
None of us had any experience with tar. All of our roads were dirt, but
the leader of our village was always trying to make us famous, and he had
all these random engineering books to give him ideas. Books that he
probably stole from somewhere. As if the gods gave a shit about whether
our roads were gravel or dirt. We had no sols in our village, and we were so
far out from the centre ring—the centre of our society. So the gods wouldn’t
even notice if we painted our roads purple and started walking around
naked.
Anyway, back to the tar.
Apparently, when your hair gets covered in tar, the only way to get rid
of it is to shave your entire head, and that’s how I made my teacher bald.
The whole ‘making a teacher bald’ incident was pretty much the reason that
nobody was expecting me to go to the selection ceremony.
