As they flee a famine, the protagonist knows drought, war, plague, and food shortages are sure to strike the north in the future, so he takes the initiative to plan an escape south. They need travel permits and ordination certificates. Monks with ordination certificates are officially registered and exempt from personal taxes, though their property is not tax-exempt.
