Moonstone Maneuvers

My two hands

Can grasp the magic

In the stars.

My two hands

can manipulate the cause;

reflect and give pause.

So don’t ask

of me what task I

can complete.

Every feat

does not need to meet its end

with weapons. Time reckons;

—Nowhere Boy

Moonstone Maneuvers (Concluded)

Debts will be

collected. Use of

force will just

lead us to

over correction. There’s no

reason to adapt.

I’ve prepared

my plan of attack.

Many have

tried. He tried

to untangle the facts. Let’s

get Bo Jangles back.

—Nowhere Boy

Oblivion’s Grit

I can fly

because I chose not

to listen

to those who

said I shouldn’t. So I glide;

Doing what they all feared.

—Nowhere Boy

Oath of the Nowhere Clan

We never get credit

Don't you ever forget it

It'll go to your head if you let it

We never get credit

Don't you ever forget it

But If we do, take it to influence

If you don't you'll regret it.

—Nowhere Boy
