   Utaka bustled off towards the stove. "Lin-san is like family to us, and any friends of hers are likewise. You all must be soaked and freezing. I will make tea, and then once you are warmed up, I make dinner..." As she messed about, an elderly man entered the room. "And what have you been up to, little one?"
   Lin smiled. "Getting up to mischief as usual, Tae-so-san."

   "I am pleased to make the acquaintance of one so wise, Grandfather Tae-so-san." Yabu bowed low again, this time to the elderly man. "Many pardons for asking, Tae-so-san, but are you not the Tae-so-san, the Gentle Lion of the Benorosuke Rebellion?"
   Yabu had referred to a famous non-violent peasant uprising led by an outcast monk, who had been kicked out of the Immaculate Lamasery for questioning the Jade Emperor's authority.

   Tae-so smiled at Yabu. "That was a long time ago. Not many people know or care about that any longer." He sat down, sighing with his age. "I have not heard anyone mention that in quite some time."
   
   While Tae-so spoke, Lin slipped into the back room. She looked at the tablets she had stacked on the makeshift shrine five... or was it six? years ago. She was grateful to Utaka and Tae-so for taking her in, and she loved them like she had her parents, but she didn't want to listen to Tae-so tell the story of the rebellion again. Non-violence was all well and good, but some things could only be settled with blood. She picked up a small slat of wood and a piece of charcoal, and wrote Jiy Shinju on it. She'd find out where he belonged later. That wasn't the important part. She was the only one left to remember him.
