CMU Chapter 40
Chapter Forty: Crying Man edit
In Montôltok, Infoduhû, the Crying Man, meets Solineus Mikjehemlut, seeking donu-honêsh for the Smiling Men to flood the Boborun city of Enepal. Infoduhû, a former Boborun slave, confirms his donu-honêsh fields hidden among sugarcane, revealing a new field could yield a harvest in four months. Solineus offers a Mulshahar writ for 175,000 smedên, which Infoduhû accepts, suspecting a Compunêu Trade Consortium test but driven by greed. He plans to betray Solineus, dispatching Mokên to sic Captain Soderun tû Galortêu on him, believing Galortêu’s pursuit will eliminate the foreigners. Infoduhû, Jôjô, and Mokên toast to their scheme, each secretly plotting to betray the others, aiming to fund new fields and escape with the writ’s wealth. Infoduhû, unaware Poleen Juvukis orchestrated Solineus’s mission, plans to maintain his donu trade with the Consortium, setting the stage for her to exploit his secrets, secure Nicôdî tû Dêidontâ’s Written Jewels, and advance her vengeance against Nedrich nâ Hilêômbrâ and Berjer Fendênus, aligned with her father’s yostul ambitions.
