Wait a minute, "douzi" is the Chinese term for beans! Why on Gaia would the Wutainese be growing beans instead of rice??? And why would they have named a town after the darn things? This I've got to hear.

(I found a small typo, BTW. You may want to add a "to" in front of dilly-dally.)

Last question: do your old notes give this series a happy or sad ending? Inquiring minds would dearly love to know.
