    A boy tells his teacher that the skies will fill with rain and drown them in wetness, taking away their cheer. The teacher tells the boy that all he sees is a grey shroud and asks if he bothered to ask the clouds. Though vexed, the boy withdraws while the teacher smiles proudly bowing three times to Redbeard, the Thunderer, in praise of him. The next day, the teacher tells the boy that sour thoughts don't fly where the Thunderer rides.
