They were talented enough to officially be viewed as one of the best technomages in the galaxy and then some, yet, they were only 15 years old. All they had to do was barely touch a computer, and it was like the thing was absolutely brand new and functioning in as near as absolute perfection as existence could become.

Fortunately for them, so do much kinder ones, usually in time to stop the unsavory ones from doing very unpleasant things to try to force a family to give up a kid like them. -- Anon Guest
