The Light Eater

Today is Al's first day of school. He packed his bag and prepared his lunch. Ever since his Dad died he has had to take care of himself and his Mother in mourning. Since that day Al has been burdened with a curse: something dark happens every time he tries to speak. Nonetheless, Al sets off to school all alone with his trusty crayon and pages of his favorite drawings. Hoping to somehow make friends.
