This chapter's epigraph comes from a famous poem by the famous English poet William Butler Yeats. In this poem, the poet states that he wishes he were dead so that he could be buried with the rest of the English poets. In other words, he wishes to be buried in the graveyard of poets who have been killed by the English. The poem is about a man who is about to be killed by his own countrymen, but he decides to go to the graveyard anyway because he is afraid of what will happen to him if he is killed. He goes to the cemetery and finds the dead body of a young man who has been shot in the back. The young man is a member of the tianling family, which is one of the most powerful families in China. It is rumored that the young man's father, the prince of the princely family, was killed in battle by the prince's own soldiers. The prince is also rumored to have died in the battle, but the poem does not reveal this fact.
