In the time that followed, Father Sampton's brain was constantly drifting uncontrollably toward thoughts about the island project of Chip Family. One moment he was thinking about the project's development, the next he was calculating how many shares he might be able to claim with his current capability.

A mound of yellow earth, a single tombstone — this marked the burial of the lifetime of a Great General who founded the nation.
Perhaps for others, it was merely the passing of a hero seen on the news. People would look at the life of this Anti-Japanese War hero and sigh about his story, lamenting, "What a pity."
But for Jane Sampson and Granny Sampson, what had passed was family.
What had been buried was half their heart, was a layer of flesh.
A single grave could tear through their souls like bone being scraped clean.
