Spengleton

Tomph and Yofim are two boys who, in their youth, wandered separately upon a magical place called Greenlock Farm. Neither had a place to stay. So Mr. Greenlock provided them with food and shelter.

Ever since, they have been peas in a pod --- living in the same hay barn loft, singing the same celebration songs, and doing the same work.

But their ever-blossoming friendship is interrupted by strange, exotic forces acting on the farm. The boys are made to go separate ways as nature takes its course.
