Rite of Passage

In a way, Fahd was like most children. He played games and raced with his friends, he had chores, and he didn't always obey his elders. But in a way, he was not like most children. See, Fahd grew up in the desert, within a tribe of night wanderers who shun the day, fearing both the burning sun and the demons and demon hunters alike that are said to prowl beneath its glare.
A few days before Star Fall, a holy day in which the children are to be recognized as adults, Fahd and his friends sneak out in the day to race one last time. But this is one race that nobody can win.
