But Kwa Wei must never know how it happened, or she will be unhappy. It is a sad thing, but if I do not do it, there will be war with Duke Ling.\u201d Uncle Lu was not a bad man. Nevertheless, he planned to do this bad thing.<\/p>\n

Kwa Wei would have her sight; she would be able to marry her betrothed; no one would be offended, so there would be no war. What was the life of the Liu-mu, which after all was ugly, compared to all these good outcomes? Even so, Uncle Lu felt terrible. The following afternoon, Kwa Wei once more rode the Liu-mu in and out of Fairyland.<\/p>\n

\u201cI smell a flower unlike anything in my uncle\u2019s gardens!\u201d she said excitedly. \u201cWhat does it look like, oh most beautiful and strong Poh?\u201d \u201cIt looks like a persimmon tree, but its flowers are lacy hollow balls that glow in the middle.\u201d \u201cOh! And I smell something like a tulip tree, but it\u2019s different!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIts leaves are purple and red, but its flowers are emer- ald green.\u201d \u201cIs it true?\u201d said Kwa Wei. \u201cFairyland is a beautiful place, intended for a unicorn as beautiful as you.\u201d The Liu-mu felt guilty not to admit he was not a Poh- unicorn. To make amends for his lie, he said to the rider on his back: \u201cI would like to take you to visit the Vale of the Unicorns.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIs there such a vale?\u201d asked Kwa Wei enthusiastically. \u201cThe Vale of the Unicorns is terrifyingly beautiful, so much so that mortals go blind if they see it. As you are al- ready blind, it will be perfectly safe. Even without your sight, you will feel the beauty, and smell the beauty, and hear the beauty of the Vale of the Unicorns.\u201d Therefore the Liu-Mu took his rider toward two stone lanterns. The lanterns began to grow until they were as large as temples. Then Kwa Wei and the ugly unicorn were in the Vale of the Unicorns.<\/p>\n

The first unicorn they met was the fierce Hiai-chi. It was humming to itself\u2014a primitive chant in a deep voice. If birds were as big as dragons, they might sound like the humming Hiai-chi. \u201cWhat is making such a deep song?\u201d asked Kwa Wei, clinging tightly to the Liu-mu\u2019s curly mane. \u201cIt is my friend the Hiai-chi. You can say hello to it.\u201d \u201cHello, Hiai-chi.<\/p>\n

I have come to the Vale of the Unicorns riding the beautiful, strong Poh.\u201d The Hiai-chi was a unicorn twice the size of an ele- phant. Its horn sprouted between the eyes of its dragon head. It had a tail like a hundred brooms and a mane like a lion.<\/p>\n
