Amelia Narration:
Caleb:
This new Caleb was a replacement child. The couple already lost their first Caleb, A cheerful little Four.
Loss of a child was very rare.
The community was extraordinary safe, each citizen watchful and protective of all children.
But somehow the first little Caleb had wandered away unnoticed, and had fallen into the river.
The entire community had performed the Ceremony of loss together, murmuring the name Caleb throughout the entire day, less and less frequently, softer in volume as the somber day went on. Until the Four seemed to fade away gradually from everyone's consciousness.
Now, at this special naming of the Ceremony. The new child sleeping in the Mother's arms. It was as if the first Caleb were returning.
