Characters: (this chapter) erm, a lot of characters, but the only one who's making his inaugural appearance is Zhao Shi
Wordcount: 3200
Summary: In a world where divination is used to predict the future and govern nations, State Diviner Touya Akira and private investigator Waya Yoshitaka embark on a search for the heretic Sai, the ghostly diviner who may be the most powerful of them all.
This chapter: In which Zhao Shi is put-upon by Le Ping (and possibly vice-versa), Touya is seasick, everyone more or less angsts a lot, and progress is made geographically, if not necessarily plot-wise.
Earlier chapters.
( I wanted to ask him a thousand things about Shindou but couldn't. Not-talking about Shindou had become such a habit by now, I felt like I'd done it all my life. It was hard to believe that it'd only been two years. )
