Sansho the Bailiff   was written in 1915 by Dr. Ougai Mori, a Japanese military doctor. He transformed Japanese folklore into literature. The forty-page short story has become one of the most well-read books in Japanese history. The original folklore tells the story of Anju and Zushiou, who were members of the Japanese royal family. This tale has been handed down from mouth to mouth for one thousand years.

King of Pepper is my creation. Strictly speaking, it is an adaptation of Sansho the Bailiff. I believe human trafficking—especially the buying and selling of children—for the purpose of exploitation must stop. Follow the tale of love between sister and brother and their escape from a life in child slavery.
