庁 - Government Office
At the Government Office, officials sit under a heavy rainy cliff roof, as if bracing against a storm of petitions, while orderly lines form on the street outside. The character was standardized in the Meiji era for new ministries, so imagine the anxious bustle of citizens waiting in the drizzle for modern bureaucracy to take root.
