Prologue

When children are born, they have a metal bracelet on your wrist. This bracelet is not to be removed or covered by any civilians. On it, sketched into the surface, is a rhythm. On average, a name will be about one to three measures. This rhythm is how you are recognized.
At the top left corner of papers in class, there is a measure to write your rhythm.
However, when you turn ten, you receive your first pitch. Everyone has all of their pitches by eighteen. By this time, you have a full melody to be recognized by.
One day, you find it all. Your lyrics. They are only presented to you when you are considered ready.
