RE: Puzzler's Space - Lesson 1: Spring's Spirit Departs
Puzzle 1: The shoes were delicately crafted from a transparent quartz that illuminates colour akin to a restrained and deliberate rainbow, a marvel to observe for hours or even days.

Puzzle 2: The Assembly fell victim to corruption as all things do with time, they were consumed with what they were tasked to regulate. Though it was not to obtain material possessions but to indiscriminately bloat their membership without adhering to the meritocracy and criteria that got the elders elected in the first place. The sum total prior to the strife was 144. When the conflict was resolved the 8th survivor pondered if the higher spirits were enacting a cruel joke and mockery of their responsibilities by enabling this mess.

Puzzle 3: When every source of the written word is consumed by the soil, then shall the immobile become the mobile and beast and man alike will be fettered by icy-cold dread of their well deserving fate. Then the beings of the earth will be punished by the heavens in turn for being complicit in static and petty infliction of cruelty upon the formerly mobile prior to their wrathful uprising.

After-school reading:

I would have observed the Accordance of Fifteenth Heaven, I would argue as if I were Liu Kui that I am a mortal being and do not have the luxuries of longevity brought upon by my passive and rooted nature. I would politely demand compensation in the form of a single fruit of the mangrove tree. Because in the grand scheme of things, the value of that fruit could not measure up to the value of the scroll. I would die long before the vengeance of the earthly beings happens. I would feel justified in my entitlement being capitulated to, because trading something significant for something of lesser significance that will soothe the agony of existence in the short term would be rewarding to all parties involved, the beings of the earth are present everywhere and they will observe and mock my suffering til the days that I die and I certainly have a lot of days to live through before meeting my timely end.
