Kino's Journey - The Beautiful World 2

“So basically, none of these people wants to be president, huh, Kino?” “Yeah, nobody wants to do it...” “This ‘vote’ is just a way of forcing the job on someone else, then.” “It sure is.” “So, when should we run?” Kino and Hermes travel to a country where the government took the concept of “majority rule” to such an extreme that hardly anyone was able to live there. The next country has figured out how to live peacefully with their neighbors: by taking out their aggressions on a third party. While the residents of each land tend to be welcoming, Kino’s rule to stay in one place for only three days allows them to avoid becoming dangerously mired in local conflicts, but sometimes leaving comes at a price.
