Thanh Hung, Vietnam is full of color and joy, and after weeks of walking through Laos, I feel closer to Fenzi than ever, But I am worried. I do not know much Vietnamese, and the word is that Vietnam is very harsh to disciples of Shijie. They kill them using that specific person's element. I have no wish to be stoned to death, thank you very much. But there is another disciple of Shijie in Vietnam. Posters read:
Citizens of Vietnam:
There has been a report of a disciple of Shijie. Kim-ly Nguyen has reported that her daughter, Lien Nguyen is a disciple of water. Lien Nguyen is rumored to be traveling to Fenzi. If found, she must be drowned.
By the order of His Imperial Majesty,
Emperor Bao Dai
Though the posters horrified me, I also felt secure in the knowledge that there was someone else like me in Vietnam. But I was terrified for Lien Nguyen. Had she seen the posters yet? Did she know about her death warrant? It was not safe for me in Vietnam. I had to get to Fenzi as fast as possible, before I was killed.
