History

Elder Ngabo called the Arbiter Twins, Kela and Dar Chensal to Jigme Village to adjudicate a case of nine baskets of apples that had been stolen. She welcomed the twins and brought them before the accused man, Lotse Taring. During the trial, as Lotse and the villagers talked, Kela and Dar fell into their meditative trance, and they were whisked away to the place where justice dwelled. Ngabo waited with the rest of the villagers until Dar lit his lamp of guilt, ending the trial and proclaiming that Lotse Taring was guilty of stealing the apples. The villagers shouted in joyful support of the verdict.

Later that night, the village was celebrating the successful trial and judgment of Lotse Taring's theft of apples. Fittingly, they were served thick apple soup to mark the occasion. As the elder, Ngabo had her bowl of soup first. She commented that the soup was delicious, then suddenly choked and died. The village went into an uproar, accusing Lotse of murdering the elder with poison, but he loudly proclaimed his innocence.

After another, much longer trial by the Arbiter Twins, it was determined that Lotse Taring was innocent of the murder of Elder Ngabo. Either someone else had poisoned the soup, or Elder Ngabo died of some other cause than poisoning, but the truth of this matter was not revealed.
