[ Adam takes a moment to think about it. There's really no story to it. ] They're my friends. I met them at school. When I met my best friend, Gansey, he said he wanted to find the dead Welsh king Glendower and get a favor from him. I didn't really believe in it at the time, but he's one of those people. Always has followers.

The guy who can take things out of dreams, Ronan, well... I was sort of forced to be friends with him. Since he was friends with Gansey. None of us knew about it until he told us that he brought his pet raven out of his dreams. [ This is all sounding weirder than it was at the time, but. It's still not gonna beat Luke's story. ] And... none of us knew that our other friend was a ghost, even though he kind of kept telling us. It all sort of happened that way.
