Dokgo Hwi

Water used for washing is never used again. That's the rule. Why the toe of my boot happened to tip that one bucket out of six, even I don't know.

• Ha DogyeongI didn't know Senior Sister kept count of the courtyard buckets' order.
  Dokgo HwiI didn't count.
• Mo YeonjiI hauled that all night! Six buckets means three round trips!
  Paeng NoseokDon't worry, little one. Spilled water doesn't come out of your pay.

I've never counted the servants in the courtyard. This morning, I found I already knew the number.

• Sagong WolHa. When the Senior Sister starts counting numbers, she's been looking at people, not swords.
  Dokgo HwiElder, go count your talismans.
• Ha DogyeongSeventy-three. No need to count them yourself, Senior Sister, just ask me.
  Dokgo HwiI didn't ask.

Someone asked why I don't clear away the broken half. I didn't answer. A whole sword remembers nothing.

• Baek HaeryangI told you I'd reforge it so you could use it again, and you refused. Still just sitting there?
  Dokgo HwiReforge it, and it becomes a different sword.
• U CheonakWhoever keeps a broken sword hanging is still standing on the day it broke.
