"Collect books, even if you don't plan on reading them right away. Nothing is more important than an unread library."

--John Waters

In Deeper Waters by F. T. Lukens

Ch. 15

[very-grownup]

The Prefect spoke in a loud voice, "Nonsense! As the ancients said, 'You have not been sharp enough, and your men have been too slow' I passed my Imperial Examinations, and rose to my present position after many difficulties. Today an officer has arrived from the Prime Minister at the Eastern Capital with a dispatch which states that all the bandits must be arrested within ten days, and sent to the Eastern Capital. Should I fail to execute this order I shall be dismissed from office, and banished to Shamen Island. Although you are an Inspector yet apparently you are of no use, and will bring a great calamity to me. I shall, however, first send you to a very distant military post, so far away that even the wild geese cannot fly there." He then summonsed a man, and told him to brand on the Inspector's face the three characters: "Banished to … Prefecture" leaving a blank space for the destination to be branded in afterwards. This done the Prefect said, "He Tao! If you do not arrest those bandits I will never forgive you."

If you stood up on the wall, you had an unbroken view over the sea to the east, the dark shadows of islands dotted here and here in the moonlit water. The little fires lit to lure the fish flickered dreamily in the hazy night mist.
