Asako Hikaru, Conflicted Scholar

Descrição

Asako Hikaru has devoted his life to the pursuit of knowledge. As a boy, he eagerly consumed every book, scroll, treatise, and essay he could find; his parents said that he knew the sight and texture of paper better than the faces of his siblings. His insatiable desire to read and learn new things has not abated—not by the time of his gempuku, when he started work as an assistant archivist at the Kanjiro Library in Sheltered Plains City, or in the many years since. He has even passed up opportunities to advance to more senior positions, fearing they would saddle him with administrative duties that would take up time he could be using to study. Recently, however, among the multitude of scrolls in the Kanjiro Library, Hikaru discovered… something, a document that was out of place, that did not belong in the library’s public collection. He dutifully

reported it to his superiors, who saw to it that the errant work was transferred to a more secure and suitable location. However, although he has discussed it with no one else, Hikaru cannot forget what he read, or its implications. Nor can he ignore the periodic visits he now gets from an old and largely forgotten acquaintance from his youth, who now reports directly to the council.
