The problem began back at the beginning, which is to say, it all started at the issue table. Nelson Bird was scheduled to receive the standard brain, as assigned to every bird in the system. What actually happened is still debated to this day, but the end activity resulted in Nelson being issued a human brain. Not only that, but an above average one, at that.
The odd part was the brain itself was no bigger than the brain he should have been issued, but Nelson’s cognitive abilities far surpassed that of most humans. Almost instantly, he was good at deductive reasoning, analyzing situations and almost knowing what was going to happen before it did.
Of course, the part
that was throwing Nelson a curve was, he understood he was a bird and shouldn’t
have such abilities. He had no idea why
he understood the things he did. This
caused him to not fit in with either group.
He was not a normal bird, and neither was he human. His inability to communicate with either
species caused him great frustration and loneliness.
