Iām looking for the original passage, where Chains talks about thieves prosper, the rich remember, and how the secret peace breaches this. Can you tell me where it is in the book, because I couldnāt find it... Thanks
hello! it's actually in red seas under red skies:
āBut the second mandate,ā said Chains, lowering his voice and glancing around into the fog to make doubly sure that they were not overheard, āis thisāthe rich remember.ā
āRemember what?ā
āThat theyāre not invincible. That locks can be picked and treasures can be stolen. Nara, Mistress of Ubiquitous Maladies, may Her hand be stayed, sends disease among men so that men will never forget that they are not gods. Weāre sort of like that, for the rich and powerful. Weāre the stone in their shoe, the thorn in their side, a little bit of reciprocity this side of divine judgment. Thatās our second mandate, and itās as important as the first.ā
