"Bang!"
The club swung, sending the golf ball flying. On the green ahead, a boy held a flag, marking its position.
Alfred bent down to set a ball in place for Kallen, checking the angle and making a few token adjustments.

"Yes, young master."
"Bang!"
Kallen sent the ball flying again. Once it landed, the boy quickly ran over to mark its position.

"But don't family faith systems summon their Primordial Ancestors
