"We've been searching for you for a long time." The white-haired young man, Dang Han, bowed to the little boy playing in the mud by the roadside.
"So you think this continent is worth saving," said the boy, still playing in the mud without turning around.
"As the head of the family, I have both the responsibility and the ability," Dang Han continued.
"You've seen me before, so you haven't really been searching for me that long, have you?" The boy placed a square lump of mud he'd just shaped by the roadside as he spoke.
"That's true. But..." Dang Han began to explain.
"Then begone!" the boy said impatiently, waving him away.
Dang Han's face lit up. He knelt on one knee and placed his clenched right fist over his left chest.
"May Your Majesty be in good health."
