Genealogical Reevaluation
Okay Chung Quel—
I am going to make this one short, I know that you are a busy man. We were in Africa and some group of 9 demons saved our butts, but then hired us to kill yenigoo. Zombres keeps telling me that these 9 demons are working for Dr. Lau. I have no idea what that is all about. I do know, though, that we went to the place where Yenigoo is protecting something that solomon said to protect I think. We were forced to release some generals—an ox and a tiger—that are working for Lau. (Actually, this really cool monkey is the one that forced us. He told me that you’re living near his home—I’m going to try to stop by in person if I can).
I hope this gives you an advantage in one of those chess games you’re playing.

Okay—so we are flying for to hours to get to Dong Xing. Flying how? This time on a cloud. I’ve never flown by cloud before. I miss the danger cart a lot—but my favorite way of flying is by spectral horses. I wonder if clouds have souls. I find it hard to love them. I mean, sure, they are interesting to look at, but lovable? No. I am fond of the danger cart, but I don’t think I love it. I love all animals, though. This love makes me enjoy being close to them—but then, if I don’t know the animal that well, I feel kind of bad about having a relationship in which i help it but it doesn’t help me. Wait, I mean the other way around. I wish I could do something nice for ever animal that helped me get where I’m going in life. I don’t have the same wishes about this cloud though. I DO LOVE this monkey that we’re with. He knows EVERYBODY, and he has an answer to every question I ask of him. He must have been around for a very very long time—he seems to know everyone. I don’t understand why the rest of the danger gang isn’t trying to recruit him. He probably knows where the nine unknown men are. I can’t really ask him, because I figure he’s grossed out by my smell. Sure, sure, he’s condescending and doesn’t know any form of Jesus as far as I can tell—but I don’t know he’s just very charming.
You know who else is charming? Dr. Lau’s daughter. This horse-faced greek guy healed us when she asked him, and she has gotten the nine demons to call off their threat to kill us. She says that she did this because of guan yin—who talks about infinite mercy. Jesus was into mercy for everyone that wasn’t a big dumb jerk, so maybe she does know him in one of his disguises. I’ll have to look into who this guan yin guy is. It’s always nice when I can see one of the forms he took out here (and, I mean, there are jews out here, so he must have made it). So, what puzzles me, though, is why this is an act of mercy on her part. So—people who are merciful—they don’t punish those who have failed. Did we fail her? She says that she hadn’t in any way sent us to kill Yenigoo, so we couldn’t have, could we? I don’t know. She’s very smart, so it’s probably just me being dumb. After we talk to her for a while, it seems like Dr. Lau has the best interest of the earth at heart—and that this guides his every action. He is totally subservient to this aim. So—He will be impossible to stop, but why would anyone want to stop him? I’m going to have to have a conversation with Zombres about this. Also, probably, if I can, with Chung Quel. I mean—that guy doesn’t like Lau either, but why? OOF I wish Jesus were here. He could always answer every question I had.
In any case, Dr. Lau’s daughter offered to give us some visa to go wherever we needed to go. She told u about Kirin’s. She is just ultra accomodating. She sends us to the chinese jewish quarters where someone asks if we’re emissaries of Harald Jewfriend. These people are from the tribe of Naftali. I didn’t know this, but Noah had a 4th son named Yon Ton, right after the flood. Ham wanted to father the first child after the flood (Kids want the darndest things) and, in a jealous rage, he castrated his father. WHAT A JERK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe Shem wasn't a liar, and maybe this pick-ax is trustworthy, because it sounds like Ham was CLEARLY the worst of Noah's kids. Boy, I had it all wrong.*
So, when Ham had a kid—that he named Pooping for some reason—the two didn’t get along, so yon ton went east to found a city by the sea of fire (called samisa). This story put me to sleep, so I slept, only to be awoken by A LOT of people screaming about dragons in the ocean threatening to destroy china or something.
Then we to talk to sheen guan xia—who left his weasel to keep the mice in check while the cats are away. He is talking about a physician from the south.
“some people say that the good doctor is like asclepius in that he has two snakes round around him and that those snakes are after something; apparently there’s an underground pyramid (far to the west) that is the center of the two snakes desire. But their desire for it may be metaphorical. aka aka men. The heart of the two snakes desire. The two snakes have been more interested in cartographers than astronomers. “
This physician is building bridges in the community—but bridges manned by trolls. You know—trolls have a really unfair reputation in Norway. I was walking around there well before I met Gwyn and I found out that everyone accused them of stealing not only children, but just any old thing they could find. I mean, sure, they’re kind of dumb oafs, but they aren’t innately evil.

So, none of this means very much to me. But, Karl is joining us again. He told me that if you want to make an omlette you have to get disintegrated. I don’t understand why people eat non-bean things when they carry such risk with them.
