“The Marabethains have a saying for those who refuse to see the truth of a situation. 'You have eyes of red and blue', they say. Red for blood dripping. Blue for the water. It is said that these two things are all the [criminal] see. Usually they are attacked within one day. And yet, most still wish to take that chance. They prefer the false hope”
