                                                      The Transfer

    Adrenaline spikes travel through his limbs, dancing across his scales and down his limbs, as he takes his first step onto the pristine concrete platform. As the boundary-line grows nearer he breaks out into a cold-sweat, shaking hands, tingling body. Can't get rid of that [Dangersense] whine, which has been blaring since he got to the Waystation a few hours ago. Screaming warnings for something it doesn't even understand. Annoying. After about fifteen minutes of waiting an announcement finally interrupts his thoughts with a jolt.
    "Transference to Pallass from Atlanta will begin in five minutes, please ensure you are standing within the boundary line and have all luggage secured."
    A few other passengers pass around a nervous look, packing themselves tighter like really eager sardines, trying to ensure minimum risk of injury. Drezill checks religiously to ensure his tail isn't sticking out of the boundary, but he's well within it, still pushing further into the crowd just in case.
    "Transference to Pallass from Atlanta will begin in 30 seconds. Please keep all limbs within the boundary line and secure your luggage."
    Closer to the Transfer. More adrenaline, faster heartrate. Lub dub, lub dub. Somewhere his heart is pounding, but he no longer feels it, clutching his suitcase tighter, rubbing against his scales. [Dangersense] is screaming at him, and he's compelled to let it scream. Oh, god-
    
    
    The change is instantaneous. Gone is one Transfer platform, with transparent ad-ridden hologram walls and blue mage-lit lines, replaced with another, almost identical. Probably designed by some evil [Architect] in a stroke of corporate genius to confuse dimwitted passengers into spending more money. It feels like the entire platform heaves a collective sigh of relief as they arrive unscathed, and then he picks up his suitcase and walks out into the Waystation proper.
    Lines of people are strewn throughout the terminal, a series of biological walls, giving up one sardine can for another. The species seen are more varied, less Humans, more Drakes and Gnolls. All either Transferred in or Teleported over from all over the world, all stuck here, placed into queues, surrounded by blue and grey walls, lit by dim MLED light. A [Guard] takes out a handheld device and scans his Chip, holding it in place to get an accurate read, and Drezill stands still, waiting in nervous silence, until he hears the mystical mental beep and the guard nods, directing him to a shorter line, the one that says "Incoming Transference".
    It surprises him that the first thing he feels is alienation. He was always different, being a Drake, but this is different. The [Guard] sits in front of a metal box that has a small flashing green light, information about his entire life being beamed directly into her brain. Her eyes glint in the dim red light, scanning lines of information he can't see.
    "What's your name?"
    He can count the number of times he's said his full name on one hand. It builds a feeling of uncomfortability within him, accompanying already high levels of distress.
    "Drevill Silverwing Williams."
    "Where are you coming from, Mr. Williams?"
    "Atlanta, Georgia, The United States of America."
    A bead of sweat rolls down his forehead, refracting the light, the green blinking pinpoint reflected inside. He knows he's done nothing wrong, but somehow the woman manages to pull any stress he has to the forefront.
    "How long are you planning on staying in Pallass, Mr. Williams?"
    "I plan on living here, I have a work-visa."
    There's a pause, purposefully planned. They sit in silence for a few seconds, no ambient noise, just the sound of him shuffling in his seat, cringing against the cold metal, tail wavering.
    "Purpose of visit?"
    As if he didn't already answer her question.
    "Work. Living here. I repair pseudo-sapients."
    The questioning stops. Fingers twitch, typing something on that invisible interface, then a pause. Door slides open, blinding. No smile.
    "Welcome to Pallass, Mr. Williams."
    
    
    There is no city in his sight, in its place is something else, different than any city he's ever seen. Dotting the horizon are endless lines of buildings and megastructures, surrounding a stone square, like a precious gem surrounded by a jewelry box. The sky is so high here, but still the skyscrapers push upwards, ever reaching hands searching for limit, and finding none. The amount of lights is overwhelming, all sorts of colours spilling out over the landscape below, looking more like stars than the ones that hang in the sky above.
    For a moment his breath catches, head involuntarily moving closer to the window, straining to pick out all the details. Far down below is a different world. Similar, yet so different than his own, his own? So different than any other. Millions of people living and working here in a world that 200 years ago hadn't even industrialized.
    The magilev cab skitters past a massive glowing purple-scaled Drake that raises a can of Coca-Cola™ to her lips, before taking a dignified sip. She smiles and speaks, the words captured and deposited into his brain via the Chip. "Mmm, you just can't beat the taste of Coca-Cola™! It's as fine as any gemstone found in Salazsar!" Her voice caresses his mind, making his throat feel a bit parched.
    "The city sure is something, huh?"
    The Gnoll [Driver] speaks and motions a hand at the window, illuminated by passing purple light, startling Drevill into conversation.
    "Huh? Oh. I've never seen any city like this, even on Earth. Everything is so... packed together."
    The Gnoll grunts ambiguously. "Drakes sure love their cities, no offense. They say Pallass is the most urbanized city in the Worlds, but it's something else to see it."
    A pause in the air, contemplative.
    "Are you not from here?" Drevill queries.
    "Me? No way. I'm from Oteslia. Lived here about 10 years, but I'm planning on moving back some day. Problem is so much more work is here."
    The [Driver] doesn't say another word, just shakes his head, and they continue on in silence, broken up only by the sputtering engine and dying rasp of distant advertisements.
    
    
    His form is dwarfed by the buildings around him, vision denied even a horizon-line, every space covered up by more things. Massive statues sit, watching over sections of the city, stoic. A new one is being constructed, carefully built and placed. Meant to last thousands of years. His Chip wants to speak up, proffering information on the origins of, and identities of, each looming figure. He ignores it.
    High above are a few blinking dots, more magilev cars heading to destinations. Beneath his feet a rumble, slithering trains snaking beneath the city to all parts, fast and efficient. He feels out of place, too many Drakes, less Humans. Ironic, but that's just how it is. Drevill hopes he'll get used to it, at least they speak the same language.
    Winding streets lead away from the city center, hotels fading away, more sparingly placed now. Like a good Drake, Drezill follows the line. Tracing it through backstreets, around corners, past herds of pedestrians, until the apartment complex appears. And complex is the right word for it. Skills give rise to odd building codes, structures that are safer than they should be, safer than they appear to be. The building seems to lean outwards, lots of concrete, tiny balconies. He sees the top of a few Drake's heads poking above the balconies, lazing about, a few Gnolls enjoying the evening.
    The front door opens, and he enters, sneaking through the closing gap left by a departing Human. The lobby is tiny, probably to leave room for more apartments, just staffed by a pseudo-sapient, anyone with a Class and a Skill working somewhere better. He gets on an elevator and rides it up, 14th floor, room 8. It glides up stopping at the 14th floor, doors open with a ding, nobody outside. Drezill steps off furtively, glancing down the hallways, still clutching the suitcase, it rolls conspicuously.
    When he closes the door he breathes a sigh of relief. Finally that's over with. He plops the suitcase down and opens it, not a normal suitcase in actuality, but a cleverly disguised suitcase of holding. He heaves and pulls out a body, a Drake looking very much like himself, the spitting image, in fact. It looks real, and with a few Skills, it will become real. He takes a second to unpack everything else, before copying his relevant Chip data and inserting it into the pseudo-sapient. With any luck it will last a few months, and a few months is all he needs. After a moment, he leaves the room and rides the elevator down, passing by identical floors and identical rooms.
    Ding. Once again in the quiet lobby, soon replaced by bustling crowds, magilev cars, and rumbling trains. A few Drakes and Gnolls grab kebabs from a stall sitting on the side of the street, laughing and eating, timeless. Everywhere he looks are buildings and people. Drezill picks a direction, then calls a cab and gets on. The [Driver] doesn't even look up, just asks:
    "Where to?"
    The door slides shut, cab hovering in place, for a moment cut off from the outside world, as if separated by time and not just place.
    "To Liscor, please."

"[N]o earthly power can justly call me (who am your King) in question as a delinquent ... this day's proceeding cannot be warranted by God's laws; for, on the contrary, the authority of obedience unto Kings is clearly warranted, and strictly commanded in both the Old and New Testament ... for the law of this land, I am no less confident, that no learned lawyer will affirm that an impeachment can lie against the King, they all going in his name: and one of their maxims is, that the King can do no wrong ... the higher House is totally excluded; and for the House of Commons, it is too well known that the major part of them are detained or deterred from sitting ... the arms I took up were only to defend the fundamental laws of this kingdom against those who have supposed my power hath totally changed the ancient government."

That's the United States court system's source for giving the entire government "sovereignty", and defining it to mean above the law. A king's ranting before he was decapitated as a traitor by his people, in a monarchy, not a democracy.
Charge:

"[F]or accomplishment of such his designs, and for the protecting of himself and his adherents in his and their wicked practices, to the same ends hath traitorously and maliciously levied war against the present Parliament, and the people therein represented ... wicked designs, wars, and evil practices of him, the said Charles Stuart, have been, and are carried on for the advancement and upholding of a personal interest of will, power, and pretended prerogative to himself and his family, against the public interest, common right, liberty, justice, and peace of the people of this nation."

Indictment:

"[G]uilty of all the treasons, murders, rapines, burnings, spoils, desolations, damages and mischiefs to this nation, acted and committed in the said wars, or occasioned thereby." (An estimated 300,000 people, or 6% of the population, died during the war.)

The court (in 1649 in a monarchy) challenged the doctrine of sovereign immunity and proposed that the King of England was not a person, but an office whose every occupant was entrusted with a limited power to govern "by and according to the laws of the land and not otherwise".
Before being decapitated, he said:

"A subject and a sovereign are clean different things", and subjects "have no share in government".

His decapitated head was displayed for a day.
The judicial branch doesn't have the authority to make new laws. They do not have the authority to defy legislation. The separation of powers doctrine prohibits them from usurping the legislative branch's authority. They have a legally binding obligation under the constitution to have a legislative basis for their judicial decisions.
There is no relevant legal precedent for the way the United States defines the concept. No other nation in the world defines sovereignty to mean immunity from private redress from the nations own constituents, for acts outside the scope of public service - not even monarchies.
The judicial branch only has authority to interpret the legislation, and the legal axioms from common law. There have been numerous legislative attempts to provide equality under law. The inventors of democracy clearly were against the concept of sovereignty or anyone being above the law. English common law dismantled the much weaker version of it that once existed in English monarchy, long before the founding of the United States.
Here are some sources, many of which are legislative authorities (which the judicial branch does not have the legal authority to deny):
Herodotus:

"Democracy has the fairest name; nothing like monarchy ... power is held accountable."

Aristotle:

"It is more proper that law should govern than any one of the citizens... if it is advantageous to place the supreme power in some particular persons, they should be appointed to be only guardians, and the servants of the laws".

Cicero referred to statesmen, himself included, stating:

"We are all servants of the laws"

And in Rome you could generally sue statesmen.
The Magna Carta (which is considered a legislative authority in the USA) clauses 39 & 40 guarantee citizens the right to not be proceeded against by the government without due process, in Clause 39.
Clause 40 states:

To no one will we sell, deny, or delay right or justice.

The definition of Rule of Law is that no one is above the law, or, more rigorously:

"the subordination of arbitrary [government] power to the strict and well defined rules of law" (emphasis added on subordination).

The 11th Amendment explicitly says it does not give the government sovereign immunity from its own constituents).
See also John Locke, A.V. Dicey, the Code of Hammurabi,
The 14th Amendment:

These sources say explicitly that the law should be above ANY individual's, or actor's (on behalf of an entity), "sovereign" rights, INCLUDING A KING'S.

All were subject to this unchangeable [natural moral] law whether they were rulers or the ruled. In the Middle Ages, the king was a creature of law, which he swore to safeguard. It was held that “the law makes the king” (lex facit regem). He was not the creator of law; his power was not above the law, and consequently he could not arbitrarily change it. Indeed, Robert Nisbet writes that, “No legal understanding was more widespread in the medieval period than that which declared the ruler to be under the law.” (1)
In fact, subjects had the right to resist and were freed from their oaths of fealty when the law was violated by the ruler. They might even resort to force since “to oppose force to the king’s use of force was, according to the common legal creed of the Middle Ages, not only permissible but even in certain circumstances obligatory.” (2)
This bottom-up legislative process of “discovering law” that was sovereign over both ruler and ruled gave protection to the people, who knew they could constantly invoke it and hold authority accountable. This equality under the law is the basis of the rule of law and limited government that gave the West its great advantage over other civilizations.

Credence Sol explains that Magna Carta is more honoured in the United States than in the United Kingdom as it is considered by American people as democracy’s birth certificate, especially clause 39 under which the government has to abide by the law.

https://www.history.com/news/magna-carta-influence-us-constitution-bill-of-rights

America’s Founding Fathers abhorred the very idea of ever again being ruled by a king ... Magna Carta required the King to renounce certain rights, respect certain legal procedures and accept that his will could be bound by the law. It explicitly protected certain rights of the King's subjects, whether free or fettered — most notably the writ of habeas corpus, allowing appeal against unlawful imprisonment.”
The two most-cited clauses of Magna Carta for defenders of liberty and the rule of law are 39 and 40:

1. No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed with force against him, or send others to do so, except by the lawful judgement of his equals or by the law of the land.
   
2. To no one will we sell, to no one deny or delay right or justice.
   

In 1215, a band of rebellious medieval barons forced King John of England to agree to a laundry list of concessions later called the Great Charter, or in Latin, Magna Carta.
The Founding Fathers credited the 39th clause as the origin of the idea that no government can unjustly deprive any individual of “life, liberty or property” and that no legal action can be taken against any person without the “lawful judgement of his equals,” what would later become the right to a trial by a jury of one’s peers.
The last phrase of clause 39, “by the law of the land,” set the standard for what is now known as due process of law.
Writing in The Federalist Papers, James Madison explicitly referenced the 40th clause of Magna Carta when he wrote, “Justice is the end of government. It is the end of civil society. It ever has been and ever will be pursued until it be obtained, or until liberty be lost in the pursuit.”

Sovereign immunity isn't just a bad policy. It is a keystone underlying hundreds of years of perpetuated crime and atrocities. It fundamentally changed the structure of society, from a democracy with Rule of Law, into an ipso facto (by definition) tyranny.
The judicial branch of government did not have the authority to usurp the legislative branch's power to invent a new law which fundamentally altered the structure of society.
There was no legislative basis for sovereign immunity when it was concocted, or erroneously referred to as an axiom from common law, again, erroneously, by the United States Judiciary.
Sovereign immunity is not a tenet of common law, and it never was, either after the Manga Carta was written, or prior, in 1219.

"[N]o earthly power can justly call me (who am your King) in question as a delinquent ... this day's proceeding cannot be warranted by God's laws; for, on the contrary, the authority of obedience unto Kings is clearly warranted, and strictly commanded in both the Old and New Testament ... for the law of this land, I am no less confident, that no learned lawyer will affirm that an impeachment can lie against the King, they all going in his name: and one of their maxims is, that the King can do no wrong ... the higher House is totally excluded; and for the House of Commons, it is too well known that the major part of them are detained or deterred from sitting ... the arms I took up were only to defend the fundamental laws of this kingdom against those who have supposed my power hath totally changed the ancient government."

That's the United States court system's source for giving the entire government "sovereignty", and defining it to mean above the law. A king's ranting before he was decapitated as a traitor by his people, in a monarchy, not a democracy.
Charge:

"[F]or accomplishment of such his designs, and for the protecting of himself and his adherents in his and their wicked practices, to the same ends hath traitorously and maliciously levied war against the present Parliament, and the people therein represented ... wicked designs, wars, and evil practices of him, the said Charles Stuart, have been, and are carried on for the advancement and upholding of a personal interest of will, power, and pretended prerogative to himself and his family, against the public interest, common right, liberty, justice, and peace of the people of this nation."

Indictment:

"[G]uilty of all the treasons, murders, rapines, burnings, spoils, desolations, damages and mischiefs to this nation, acted and committed in the said wars, or occasioned thereby." (An estimated 300,000 people, or 6% of the population, died during the war.)

The court (in 1649 in a monarchy) challenged the doctrine of sovereign immunity and proposed that the King of England was not a person, but an office whose every occupant was entrusted with a limited power to govern "by and according to the laws of the land and not otherwise".
Before being decapitated, he said:

"A subject and a sovereign are clean different things", and subjects "have no share in government".

His decapitated head was displayed for a day.
The judicial branch doesn't have the authority to make new laws. They do not have the authority to defy legislation. The separation of powers doctrine prohibits them from usurping the legislative branch's authority. They have a legally binding obligation under the constitution to have a legislative basis for their judicial decisions.
There is no relevant legal precedent for the way the United States defines the concept. No other nation in the world defines sovereignty to mean immunity from private redress from the nations own constituents, for acts outside the scope of public service - not even monarchies.
The judicial branch only has authority to interpret the legislation, and the legal axioms from common law. There have been numerous legislative attempts to provide equality under law. The inventors of democracy clearly were against the concept of sovereignty or anyone being above the law. English common law dismantled the much weaker version of it that once existed in English monarchy, long before the founding of the United States.
Here are some sources, many of which are legislative authorities (which the judicial branch does not have the legal authority to deny):
Herodotus:

"Democracy has the fairest name; nothing like monarchy ... power is held accountable."

Aristotle:

"It is more proper that law should govern than any one of the citizens... if it is advantageous to place the supreme power in some particular persons, they should be appointed to be only guardians, and the servants of the laws".

Cicero referred to statesmen, himself included, stating:

"We are all servants of the laws"

And in Rome you could generally sue statesmen.
The Magna Carta (which is considered a legislative authority in the USA) clauses 39 & 40 guarantee citizens the right to not be proceeded against by the government without due process, in Clause 39.
Clause 40 states:

To no one will we sell, deny, or delay right or justice.

The definition of Rule of Law is that no one is above the law, or, more rigorously:

"the subordination of arbitrary [government] power to the strict and well defined rules of law" (emphasis added on subordination).

The 11th Amendment explicitly says it does not give the government sovereign immunity from its own constituents).
See also John Locke, A.V. Dicey, the Code of Hammurabi,
The 14th Amendment:

"No state shall deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws",

The 5th Amendment:

"No person shall ... be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law",

USC Title 42 Section 1985 (Conspiracy to interfere with civil rights), the inscription over the back entrance of the SCOTUS ("Equal Justice Under Law"),

Since America’s Founding Fathers abhorred the very idea of ever again being ruled by a king, the U.S. Supreme Court, in its decision in the 1907 case of Kawananakoa v. Polybank, suggests different reasoning for America adopting sovereign immunity: “A sovereign is exempt from suit, not because of any formal conception or obsolete theory, but on the logical and practical ground that there can be no legal right as against the authority that makes the law on which the right depends.” Magna Carta required the King to renounce certain rights, respect certain legal procedures and accept that his will could be bound by the law. It explicitly protected certain rights of the King's subjects, whether free or fettered — most notably the writ of habeas corpus, allowing appeal against unlawful imprisonment.”
The two most-cited clauses of Magna Carta for defenders of liberty and the rule of law are 39 and 40:

Hmm, this was last week but thought I'd share it here, because fuck cars.
This is an email I sent to The Chopped Leaf head office (karening), following the scenario described. Just another day in the hellish carpocalypse.
--------------------------------
To The Chopped Leaf
I am assuming this is related to the Sardis location, because it occurred closest to this one, but could have been the other Chilliwack location.
​
A man driving a suv with a Chopped Leaf vinyl wrap was driving north on Dieppe St, approaching Caen Ave. I was walking on the sidewalk on the west side with my cousin, and were heading toward the intersection with the intention of crossing in the crosswalk to the east side.
​
The intersection is a 3 way stop, however it was apparent the man driving had no intention of stopping, as he wasn't even slowing down for the stop sign. He wasn't going to do a "rolling stop", he was simply going to blow right through it.
​
Based on his speed and ignorance of his legal obligation to stop at a stop sign, I calculated that he would be well clear of the intersection before I got anywhere near the center line of the road. I began to cross, and as I stepped off the curb into the crosswalk at the west side of the road, the man driving northbound past the stop sign, in the lane on the east side of the road, decided to slam on his brakes, coming to a stop fully in the crosswalk and past the stop sign.
​
As he was now stopped I altered my route to go around him as he was now blocking the crosswalk. If he had continued to run through the intersection as he originally intended, he would have been gone before I got anywhere near the lane he was in. His reckless driving however wasn't enough to satisfy him, as he now decided to yell at us out his window, which if had hit us would have been a disgusting display of victim blaming, but since we weren't injured because we weren't anywhere near his stupid car, was just rude harassment.
​
It was fairly dark out, though the intersection is lit. The man was apparently mad at us for "wearing dark clothing". Though the sweater I was wearing has reflective elements, and my cousin was wearing a shirt that is white plaid... It is irrelevant for a number of reasons, 1. There is no legal dress code to be a pedestrian. 2. The intersection was lit. We were nowhere near his car, and not even on the same side of the road. 3. He has to stop at stop signs, regardless of whether there are pedestrians on the other side of the road or not...
​
After we finished crossing he again shouted at us for our clothing,...
​
This is pretty disgusting behavior, his entitlement and harassment, as well as his reckless driving that will potentially lead to him hurting someone some day. And he's doing this in a vehicle plastered with your companies name. I imagine he must be the manager of the local store as he was in the company vehicle.

Chapter 88: Noughts And Crosses
Everything told me that I'd misheard. Badly.
Sword saint or not, she was clearly a commoner, and so spoke a language barely two steps evolved from cave paintings.
After all, there was simply no perceivable scenario in which she would admit, with a smile no less, to having committed tax evasion and burglary against the Royal Treasury! That was patently absurd. To commit even the lowest offence against the royal family was a high crime—and burglary could never be described as low.
Yes, of course.
This had been an exceptionally tiring few days. Clearly, the amount of words my delicate ears had been subjected to by criminals, nobility and criminal nobility had damaged my hearing faculties. And then there was the smell. It was awful. Cows and peasants everywhere.
I needed to rest. Desperately. The very first high-quality lodgings I came across, I would stay in. No more being fussy because I didn't like the colour of the roof tiles. As long as the room was fully furnished, came with ample amenities, a large bathtub and 24 hour room service, I was willing to stay even in Aquina.
For the sake of my health, I needed to be flexible with my standards—at least for one night. Tomorrow would adhere to a different standard, but for now, I could force myself to contend with the smell of this farmyard duchy.
Indeed, I was already used to it.
Even the worst of livestock barely surpassed the stench of what I'd suffered in the royal capital. That'd been appalling. Spilled food, vomit and the perfume of nobility. Though no blade struck me, I hadn't come out of that debacle unscathed. I was likely suffering from a host of ailments.
The biggest, of course, being the brain rot that was causing me to interpret entire sentences incorrectly.
And so, I offered a beautiful smile—all the while I gripped Starlight Grace in my hand.
“My apologies,” I said to the Snow Dancer. “You will have to repeat that. Slowly. I believe I grossly misheard you when you claimed to fail in your payment of taxes to the Royal Treasury, and that you also burgle from it.”
The elven woman took a few minute steps away, the sword twirling imposingly in her hand … just before she turned, kneeled and began drawing noughts and crosses into the snow with the tip.
I watched as she played a match against herself.
She lost. Somehow.
“Nope, that's what I said,” she replied with a carefree shrug.
And thus—my smile creaked.
“Could you perhaps reword it, at least, but with slightly less treason?”
“I'm not sure I can, since it wasn't treason. It was grand larceny. I checked.”
“The definition is highly flexible. And by that, I mean determined solely by me. What did you steal?”
Ophelia blinked at me in puzzlement.
I rolled my eyes.
“From the Royal Treasury.”
“Oh. That. I can't remember. It wasn't important. Probably a painting or something.”
“A painting? You stole a painting?”
I was appalled.
The Royal Treasury only held items of immense value. Treasures which preceded generations of our family. Any portrait held there would be worth more than all the gold crowns lying beneath it.
Ophelia thought for a moment.
“Old guy. Fluffy white beard. Wore a tea towel on his head.”
Suddenly, I felt my breath catch in my throat.
“Describe the tea towel,” I said at once.
Ophelia hummed at her next game of noughts and crosses.
“Blue and white. Checkered. With a squiggly flower in the middle.”
My hand covered my mouth as I immediately recalled the oil painting in my mind.
The Man With The Tea Towel. A highly distinct work of modern impressionism, interpreting my great-great-grandfather, King Reginald the Bald at his prime.
It came all too easily to me.
After all … I was the one who painted it!
“That's what you stole?!”
“I think so. But hey, in my treasonous defence, it was the only thing I took. Honestly, I just wanted to peek around. I wasn't planning on grabbing anything. Maybe.”
My hand shook against my mouth.
I … I couldn't believe it … The Snow Dancer had stolen the first ever painting I'd deemed worthy enough to show my mother and father?! A cherished and storied part of my own personal history?!
I was absolutely horrified.
Why, I'd ordered it destroyed!
Who interceded?! That painting wasn't even worthy enough to be used as a carpet! That it was sent to the Royal Treasury is a humiliation! Who betrayed me?! Was it the servants?! The guards?! Heads would roll for this!
“Of all the riches laden in the Royal Treasury, you stole that?!”
“Yeah. Why? Was it expensive?”
“It … well, in a manner of speaking, yes! But why not a storied tiara?! An ancient tome of forbidden spells?! Why did you have to steal a work of sheer inadequacy which demonstrated only a naive ignorance of colours?!”
Ophelia shrugged.
“I liked the tea towel. It was cute.”
I almost vomited on the spot.
Painting that tea towel ensured I'd entered the world of fine art at its lowest rung! And now I knew that somewhere in the world, my crimes against modern impressionism were visible to all!
“What … What happened to it … ?” I asked, my voice dry as sand. “Did you … Did you sell it … is it now halfway across the continent … in a gallery to be mocked and scorned at … ?”
“That's very unlikely. After all, chopping wood for kindling is sort of a pain and I like the scent of oil canvases. You know, when they're on fire.”
I gasped.
“You burned the painting?!”
“Yeah.” She paused. “My bad.”
My entire body relaxed.
Despite the unrelenting chill in this frozen chamber, I felt nothing but searing relief burning inside me. Had I decided to drop down and roll against the snow, I was certain that billowing steam would engulf us all.
“You … You have committed a terrible and permanent … it was permanent, yes … ?”
“Really permanent. The charred ash isn't even there anymore.”
“Then, you've committed a permanent and irreversible crime against this kingdom! Why, without that ghastly painting, filled with anatomy errors and depth mistakes, the kingdom will be a happier, but culturally worse off place!”
For a moment, overwhelming gratitude filled my heart.
… And then I remembered she'd broken into the Royal Treasury, evaded taxes and assisted in the planned secession of Aquina!
“Snow Dancer,” I said, wiping off the lines of relief from my face. “I believe it's time you paid the Royal Treasury another visit.”
“Oh? But I've already looked inside. Has it changed much in the past few years?”
“Considerably. But you can assist in returning it to its former state.”
Indeed … it was time to calculate the vast financial repayment plan that the Snow Dancer would momentarily be signing in order to enter a life of crippling destitution and inescapable poverty.
“You will repay every crown that is owed,” I said, kneeling down beside her to join the new noughts and crosses game she'd marked in the snow. “You're in arrears. An unfortunate, but easily repairable set of circumstances.”
“Now that does sound serious. Also, are you noughts or crosses?”
“Crosses,” I said, as I promptly took the first turn. I poked a cross directly in the centre with my sword. “And fortunately for you, I have experience in dictating unreasonable financial repayment plans. I care not whether you are a sword saint evading taxes or a servant spilling wine. Your debt will be repaid. In full. And on time. The matter of you aiding the Duke will be handled separately.”
The Snow Dancer frowned as she battled out her next series of defensive noughts against my aggressive crosses. A draw.
She ruffled the snow and instantly drew a new game for us.
“Ouch. That's a lot to look forward to.”
“It is. But you may begin with your atonement to the Royal Treasury. I require a concise list of all your properties and assets.”
“I have a cottage, a pond and two ducks.”
I tapped my foot, waiting for her to continue.
“Yes? And?”
“That's it.”
“How could that be it? You're a sword saint, yet you live like a peasant in squalor?”
Ophelia looked genuinely offended. But not offended enough for me not to notice her cheating by scrubbing one of my crosses away. I clearly and deliberately remarked it with my sword.
“That cottage, pond and two ducks is all I need. It's homely and comfortable. Despite what everyone else says, I'm extremely content with what I have. So what if it's not big enough to raise a family in? It's big enough for friends. And I have lots of friends. In fact, I have too many. I have to keep my door locked all day, otherwise friends will just keep wandering inside.”
The elven woman suddenly began poking her noughts harder into the snow.
I peeled away ever so slightly.
“Y-Yes … well, be that as it may, you have more than your meagre … cottage to offer the Royal Treasury. You've failed to include the sizable asset in your hand.”
Ophelia lifted the tip of her sword away from the latest nought she drew.
“Oh, this thing?”
“Yes, that thing. I imagine an elven sword with a sapphire pommel will prove a suitable start to your long journey of reparations.”
“You think so? Well, in that case, sure! It's all yours.”
The Snow Dancer smiled—without moving, offering or presenting the sword in her hand for my collection.
“By that,” she continued, eyes brimming with enthusiasm, “I mean that you're going to have to take it from me, although I don't think that's very likely. I saw you dodge all those traps. You're fast. Really, really fast. And fast equals potential. And I love potential. But there's no way you could come close to beating someone like me in an actual fight. And the thought of murdering you is such a waste. I've waited literal years for someone interesting to pop up. So here's the deal! We make it exciting. You open that vault and I'll stop you like I'm … probably supposed to? Then, once you horribly and painfully lose, I'll recommend some teachers so you can have an epic training arc in the mountains! I'll throw in a few ominous appearances and string you along with a few high level goons. Once you're strong enough to beat me, we can have an actual showdown with my sword and A-rank title on the line. It'll be amazing!”
A long moment of silence passed.
Eventually, I offered a smile as pure as the snow around us—which given that it was now the tomb for dozens of frozen guards, wasn't pure in the slightest.
And that's fine.
Because someone who was now openly mocking me for the way I handled Aquina's slow, rusty traps deserved no less.
“Ohohoh … a truly colourful suggestion. However, I'd like to propose an alternative.”
“Oh? What's that?”
Casually pointing Starlight Grace across my lap, I aimed it directly at Ophelia's undefended side.
“[Spring Breeze].”
For a single moment, I saw a pair of blue eyes looking down at the gathering wind at the tip of my sword.
Pwooooomph.
That sight was replaced by an explosion of snow.
I coughed, my entire vision filled by a blanket of white as the very chamber groaned around me. A thick plume of snowfall instantly covered me, and yet even in that white haze, I could see the giant hole in the snowy ground where an elven sword saint now lay buried.
Towards the empty space where my opponent had just been kneeling, I raised my hand to my lips and cackled.
“Ohohohohohohohohhohoho! You fool! Did you believe me as prone to flights of fancy as you? While idly playing lockpicker and games in the snow, I was waiting for an opportunity to take you unawares!”
Naive!
Naturally, I was under no allusions as to the grave threat this, frankly, bizarre elven woman posed to the kingdom!
She was most certainly no wandering wisp here to assist me in breaking open Aquina's vault for fun! She had her own ploys and schemes, and acted under the orders of the very Duke whose castle I was now taxing!
Indeed, I was merely waiting, prowling, my intentions meticulously hidden like a panther in the shadows—and when I spied my chance, I seized it without hesitation!
Because what I failed to mention to the Snow Dancer was that she would have to commit to her financial repayment plan while in prison!
Ohohohohohohohoho!
“Ooooh ...”
To the side, I heard applause as Coppelia congratulated me from behind what was now a rather impressive snow castle.
“Such an underhanded attack!” she said, smiling broadly from above a parapet. “You waited until her eyes were sparkling! She never saw it coming!”
I smiled, accepting the compliment in full.
Why, it could be nothing else! I had just achieved a stunning victory over an A-rank sword saint in a single strike!
Was it chivalrous? No. Did I care? More no.
Because history was written by the victors, and as far as anyone outside this chamber was concerned, I'd defeated the Snow Dancer in honourable combat!
“Ohohohoho! Behold! Being A-rank clearly doesn't extend to superior intellect! Because even if she's greater at swordplay, I'm greater at machinations!”
Coppelia smiled lazily at me, her arms leaning atop the walls of her castle.
“The pen is mightier than the sword, huh?~”
“No, Coppelia. The sword is mightier than the sword which isn't facing the right direction … ohohohohoho!”
My obstacle removed, I pointed at the vault.
“The way now is clear! I've no doubt that the Snow Dancer was present for the sole purpose of hindering our passage, whatever her playfulness might suggest.”
“Probably,” replied my future handmaiden, who for some reason still wasn't moving from her castle. “I mean, if she did want to stop us, that'd be a problem. A-rank sword saints are something special.”
I quietly laughed, trying my best not to inhale the snow.
“Why, A-rank is merely a title. And as princess, I outrank them all. Should any foe present themselves to me, I'll dispatch them as readily as I would a jester at court!”
Coppelia nodded.
All the while, she started piling on another layer on her snow wall.
“The thing is, A-rank sword saints aren't just really tough. They're silly tough. I bet they could even take a [Ball Of Doom] to the face and still survive.”
“To the face?”
I was horrified.
I could punt fruit slimes over 100 metres! Why, even if someone survived being struck in the face, then no healer could repair the damage to their hair. It'd be permanently frizzled!
Nobody would want to live after that!
“Mmh. They're nuts that way.” Coppelia peeked over her wall. “Did you hit her in the face, by any chance?”
“No.”
“Well, then.”
I pursed my lips.
After which, I turned around to view the hole being covered by the falling snow.
Nothing could be seen.
I waited a few moments more, then happily began chalking defeating a sword saint on my grand list of achievements—all the way until an echoing voice dampened my sense of satisfaction.
“See the truth amidst the falling snow, burning steps beneath the stars.”
I swept Starlight Grace towards where the Snow Dancer had been blown away.
And then—
“Snow Helix Form, 5th Stance … [Butterfly Horizon].”
I heard the voice from behind me instead.
Glancing past my shoulder, I witnessed the beautiful smile of an elven sword saint as she blinked into existence, her expression filled with simple, childish, murderous joy. And then I saw the elven sword gleaming as it absorbed the falling snow.
The sword which was now sweeping towards my neck.

Recently an alt_troll with yet another temp account claimed that Zen historical records, aka "koans", which are really and truly just historical records of conversations, weren't meant to be "understood".
Now I know what you are thinking... how could conversations, literally people trying to understand each other... not be meant to be understood?
To understand the confusion of these kinds of people all it takes is one short history lesson:

1. (550 CE, China) Zen Masters and Zen students start writing down public conversations that go to the heart of the transmission of Zen Master Buddha. This is what the sutras likely were based on, but the historical aspect of these records was almost immediately abandoned by Buddhism 700 BCE, India) because history is inconvenient to faith and doctrine and because early Buddhism had no access to written language.
   
   • See also, Bodhidharma Anthology.
2. (1700 CE, Japan) A cult leader named Hakuin tells everyone that koans are actually codes meant to "crash your neural operating system", and that he, Hakuin, can tell if the error code generated by this "crash" is legitimate evidence of enlightenment. Hakuin records these "error code answers" in a book which of course (like the Mormon golden tablets) had to be kept secret from everyone outside of the Hakuin club. This secret is kept for about 150 years, at which point the secret book is leaked and Hakuin's failing cult loses all credibility.

3. (Now CE, Internet) Unaffiliated "spiritualists" who can't write at a high school level and never read up on Hakuin's religion take the leap of faith and declare koans to be... you guessed it... codes. These people create various internet identities to "share" the "good news" with everyone that they have, just like Hajkuin, deciphered the "code" of... historical records.

^Yo͞ok Welcome! ^{Meet me} My comment: The really fascinating part of this to students of anthropology is that these "decoders" are actually basing their view of Chinese historical records on two different kinds of bigotry: religious bigotry, were a cult started by Buddhist cult leader Hakuin claims to have the authoritative religious interpretation of Chinese historical records, and racial bigotry, where a Japanese cult claims to be more authoritative on questions of Chinese history than, well, the Chinese records themselves.
This is a particular attractive combination since Buddhism in the West is an illiterate free-for-all, and politically the Chinese are making one bad decision after another whereas the Japanese have a mostly spotless record in international and domestic policy. Bigots always pick on minorities.
Anytime somebody tells you there is a special "code" to history, just buy them a bible and send them on their way. Don't worry... they won't be able to read it.
