《The Tale of Gael》Mother's Mistake - Teaser 1

Concentrated Gael sat at one of the desks in the University greenhouse. His hair, which had grown to shoulder length, had to be bound behind his head like a ponytail so it wouldn't touch the desk. A professor had assigned him to a project where he would capture the growth of a plant, by making daily drawings of its progression under different circumstances. He now was a true university researcher of the agricultural department, and he has never been this bored in his entire life.

He left the desk and his work behind to clear his head. He could feel the eyes of his collegues judging him for leaving his research untended, but he didn't mind.

‘Don't you love this time of year?, Nils said, ‘Everything is growing and there is more work than that there is time to do it’.

'When I was young it seemed I could work forever'.

‘Those days are over. Working at a desk isn't that bad. The question is if we choose this ourselves or if we got pressured into it by the young folk’, Nils said. Gael smiled, and after a pause started:

‘I was wondering, do you have had any new cases?’, Gael asked

‘You want to go out there again?’

‘I would like to.’

‘Hm’, Nils answered and kept silent.

‘Have you got anything?’, Gael asked. Nils was lost in thought for a moment:
