The Cast
Each character drawn from a real person. Each carries a prop
or two that gives them a story to begin from.
No. 02 · The Friend
Liam 14
Sporty · Cat person · Slept-in hair
Aain's best friend. Easygoing on the field and at home. Can name every cat on his block, and holds at least one of them most of the day.

No. 03 · The Disciplined One
Mia 14
A+ student · Lifts before the gym fills
The kind of kid who keeps a running list of books to finish and books to start. Up before sunrise, in the gym before it fills, then back home with the morning's reading already done.

Tai 10
Kite flyer · Quiet kid
Tai has been flying the same kite since he was six. Long hair, longer kite string. He talks less than the others and watches more — including the wind, which he claims he can read.

No. 05 · The Toddler Star
Azaii 3
Curls · Wonder · Lead of the first short
The youngest. A halo of curls, a sweater with one big banana-leaf print, and the kind of curiosity that makes him chase butterflies into the meadow without asking.
"Star of the first Edhuruge animated short — see the story below."
