The two Thai dogs, White, a Ridgeback, and Black, an Australian Kelpie, travel to Norway to find Phra Lankssi (mistakenly got from 'glacier', the meltedless ice), a goddess of the Arctic Ocean as they understood.
The old fellows left the topical country for too long time，they can not remember how they came, where they have been, and even what exactly the mission was. Besides, they lost contact with RAMA IX for many years, with no commends updated at all. The king could have died or they were completely forgotten, Black always doubts. However, the only custom kept from the past is the mail, reports and letters arrive regularly to the home country address assigned by the king. The Royal Post Office, a white neoclassical bungalow design by French architects for a privately funded library in late 19th century, is located at the street corner next to the Grand Palace, against the east wall of Wat Phra Kaeo. It would be completely shade by the banyan tree in the afternoon, unless a W- shape reflection of the golden roof comes and lightens it up partially by the sunset. White preserves this image carefully in mind especially after he heard from Crow that it signifies something about him. "The General" is the name they put on the recipient on the envelop, it indeed represents the military rank of a real dog. RAMA IX conducted an appointment ceremony for his cosseted puppy in front of the human troops, the pet thus holds the authority and duty to supervises dog army and their operations.
White consider himself as a writer rather than a soldier. He miss the palace, the humid wind, birds and geckos, rice and the sweet. He writes about and for them, he prefers memories instead of the happenings, somehow he confuses the readers of Thai and Nordic. Logically, they may tell the stories of Thailand to the Nordic Kings and exchange Norwegian knowledge in the letters back to the General, but opposite cases flow around with many chances, whereas, no complain, criticism or angry notes return , thoroughly no news.
Well, they literally don't know the post office have been closed for decades, the place merged into the new development of the main tourist district of the Grand Palace area. Unsurprisingly, a 711 displaced the post office and possess the property and address. It is dubbed as 'the universal centre' of Thailand by the tourists, where everything and anything you need can buy.
