That would take some careful thinking on God's part, I think, for personalities.
One of them walks and the other, whose legs failed to develop, sits on a cart. They're attached at the left front of their heads. Quite intelligent. The one who walks dates; the other brings a book and completely turns off what's happening around her. According to the report, they happen to be believers like you and me, Folwren. One's irresponsible and the other responsible. One messy, the other orderly. One and artist, the other not. Fascinating. They would have been "freaks" in a circus a century ago.
