Chapter Type: Character Interaction
Our purses empty, our handcart full of rice wine, we thanked the Lily Women and headed back north. I was seeing less of a reason for this conflict than ever.
"So, it sure seems that most things you need to live are here." I said to Huang Lan.
"Ah. Things." He said from the other side of the cart. Each of us had a handle, and we pulled mericilessly, drunken Kumanchu prancing about us. "The older you are, the less things will matter to you."
"I don't think the dragons see things that way."
"Lung dragons do. You barbarians have offended your dragons. Of course, yours are meaner."
"Somehow, I think the issue is a bit more complicated than that."
"The young always do. Oh, here is an exception. But these circumstances, they are special. You know what religion teaches me? The Celestial Bureaucracy doesn't do exceptions. Or special. Things are right, or they are wrong."
