THE BOOK OF THE WHORES THEIR LIVES AND TEACHINGS
CHAPTER 11 After giving the plates to the people for one year, Shu decides making the plates public was a bad idea. The messages written on the plates by the public were mostly vulgar insults, and crass jokes. Shu buries the plates, so they can be preserved for future generations. [One Year After Chapter 10] 1. And now I Shu write more things. For I did giveth the plates unto the people, even as my mother desired. Nevertheless, this was an exceedingly bad idea, for the people did find it needs be to use the plates to insult others, and maketh hurtful jokes. 2. Wherefore, it must needs be that I hide the plates, even shall I bury them so as they can be preserved from the wickedness of the people. And I shall also deposit the ancient magic Asian rock that shall be used for the translation of Reformed Asian. Even the rock that Laban did attempt to use to findeth the lost trial plates, but the rock did fail him. Nevertheless, if thou doth believe, behold, the magic rock shall work! 3. And it came to pass that I did gather the plates at night, and did carry them, even with a handcart, to the top of Mount Balsac, and did bury them there. 4. And I desire exceedingly for the plates to come forth to future generations so as they may learn the important lessons written upon them. And I do know not how they shall come forth, for they are buried in the ground, and unless thou art a worm, thou shall not read them. Wherefore, who shall knoweth to dig in this spot for plates? 5. And it came to pass that I beheld a boulder nearby where I deposited the plates and translator rock, and I wrote words upon it, even a clue for the future person who shall seek for truth upon this mountain. 6. And the words I did write were: If thou seeketh wisdom and truth, yea, thou shouldest to dig twenty paces behind thee. And thou shouldest use the rock to translate the plates. 7. And I did engrave these words upon the boulder as a clue for the person who doth seek out wisdom and truth. 8. And now that I do deposit these plates, and the ancient magic Asian translator rock, and do write the clue upon the boulder, yea, it is that my work hath completed. And I do now retire, and shall livest out the few remaining years of my life knowing the plates are safe. Thus I finish all that I desire to say unto thee. Wherefore, goodbye. |
