Some people disagree with that idea. The people I was working with before I came here... They are kind, and more trusting than most. But it is still not as normal to be...

Their names are Spook, Dockson, Hammond, Sazed, Breeze, Clubs, and - Kelsier. [fantasy names...] Spook is the youngest, even younger than me. He is kind... Probably the softest of us all. He gets frightened and nervous easily, so - Spook. Dockson is probably the smartest of us - he handles things like finances and other bureaucratic things. Hammond likes philosophy, and having discussions about questions he thinks up out of nowhere. He's very strong, too. Sazed is a record keeper - he specializes in religions or faith systems of the past. He's very patient, and very kind as well. Breeze is... charismatic, if a bit egotistical. He does not take much seriously. Clubs doesn't speak much and likes to seem gruff, but he cares much more than he lets on. Kelsier...
