The people built a temple to justice and said. "It is good, let us find men and women of the highest caliber to sit in judgment of the public."
Their quest led them throughout the land to people informed of the law.
Some abused their appointed position, lavishing themselves with ill-gotten riches and growing corpulent as they feasted on the power entrusted in them.
Yet others cowered at the sight of the abusers and said nothing.
The people were shamed and asked for help from a mighty force to rid the temple of its rot. And they siad, "We must be vigilant to keep the temple clean and choose carefully those who will judge us."
