"Ouch... Uncle, why did you stop??" asked the boy with a very disappointed face when Alaric finally stop talking.
"You have to tell me what we're doing. I feel like a fool, chanting my ABCs," Alaric said firmly. "I won't continue unless you tell me what's going on."
"Oh..." The boy then pulled Alaric to sit on a fallen tree branch and sat next to him. "Have you heard of Synesthesia?"
Alaric thought for a short while, then nodded, "It's a neurological disorder that makes a person's senses work simultaneously. For example, when a person hears a particular sound, the person may see a specific shape, picture, color, or even taste a certain taste."
