As much as he loves his guitar (for sentimental as well as practical purposes), Orpheus does occasionally try his hand at other instruments. Today he's made a sort of nest for himself in a corner of the bar. His guitar is sitting on the table, along with a penny whistle, a mandolin, a dulcimer, and a scattered mess of handwritten sheet music and ( Read more... )

The door opens, and by all appearances, a late-teenage boy walks in, apparently lost in thought (or just in bopping along with whatever's on his headphones).
