Siu Zi is a 10 year old Chinese girl in Guangzhou. Late one humid evening, Siu Zi's father meets with a discreet man known simply as Mr. Chen. In a quiet corner of a small teahouse near the back alleys of Guangzhou, Mr. Chen explains, in careful whispers, how he can help the family obtain the documents they needed to leave the country safely. Other patrons are in the teahouse, and a waiter stands nearby, but nobody can hear what Mr. Chen is saying. It's safe to talk here.
In the style of Franz Marc, create a horse startled from his rest. The horse is in a grassy field, fenced, with mountains in the background. The horse is a light tan with dark mane. The horse is sensitive to a coyote nearby, emerging from a stand of Ponderosa pines. The atmosphere is quiet and calm with some morning fog misting around.
