Stolen Idols Book 1 Chapter II
In which a weary Englishman, newly rescued and burdened with a mysterious wooden Image, visits the exotic and labyrinthine warehouse of Wu Ling, a Chinese trader who possesses the twin counterpart of the relic, and they muse over the curious fate and spiritual significance of these stolen idols.
