The Magistrate

Maturation is natural.Dashi greatest desire was always to help the people. Now he has the power. But it's worse that difficult - it's politics. "Don't add to their lives, remove obstacles. Teach people how to feel relief. Don't belabour that it's good for them. That's just giving them the temptation to give themselves airs. Or for you to pat yourself on the back for being beneficent."Thus begins the sly teaching of the mistress. If only Dashi can understand the entangled layers of what she really intends. As if that weren't enough - a secret is unearthed. And another - buried in the minds of the people.With the master absent, he's going to need to do more than trust himself - just to survive. And more than just survive to come closer to answering the question: Who are you?
