  1. Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "You are being foolish young one if you want to train as to train and people will fight with you so you can be better."
  2. [15:20] Manji Ekiken says, "Wouldn't swinging that big sword a hundred times count as good training?.."
  3. [15:20] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "We of the faith do not mind training until our hands hurt and bleed but we remember those we are training with and warriors of respect."
  4. [15:20] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Well of my faith "
  5. [15:20] Manji Ekiken asks, "doesn't it hurt to make your hands bleed? Why would you do it so much?"
  6. [15:22] Hejira says, "Haha pain is temporrary quiting last forever"
  7. [15:24] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Because there will be a time when you will be called to fight."
  8.  
  9. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  10.  
  11. [15:26] Manji Ekiken asks, "And making your hands bleed will help you fight?"
  12. [15:27] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "It is pushing your body throught the pain in order to improve. Shenlong calls us to preserve throught alll things. To kept moving forward no matter how hard things become."
  13. [15:27] Manji Ekiken says, "Who is shenlong? "
  14. [15:29] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "He is the divine spirit the blessed my race."
  15. [15:29] Manji Ekiken asks, "How did he bless you? Did he give you that hair colour?"
  16. [15:32] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Hmm no he blessed me to be able to do this. "
  17.  
  18. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  19.  
  20. [15:38] Zhenlin reached out and called to the sky and the storm answered in him a bolt of lightning that fell down from it. He didn't move as he had come to understand and be at peace with the change that came from this as his horns grew out of the mass of white hair that rest on his head. His tail pushing itself out into existence slamming against the ground as he sat.
  21.  
  22. "When one of Shenlong reached out to him we call down the energy into our bodies. This energy changes use it makes us stronger and faster but it also grants as the changes you see before you. Depending on who the dragon was the blessed the line the features change."
  23. (Yawen-An Zhenlin)
  24. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  25.  
  26. [15:44] Manji was somewhat shocked to see that lightning had suddenly struck the man, he shut his eyes the second it did. He thought the man to be dead for he didn't think anyone could survive that, slowly though he opened his eyes to see that the man was still in fact alive and had begun to talk. Manji was greatly confused as to how he was still alive and able to speak, he tightened the chains around his wrist as he stared at the man, noticing that he did in fact have horns, he could also definitely felt like the man seemed stronger then before. He listened to the man intently as he spoke, though slightly distracted by the horns.
  27.  
  28. "So there are more? It's not only that shenlong person and they make you grow horns and make you strong? "
  29. (Manji Ekiken)
  30. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  31.  
  32. [15:51] Zhenlin looked at the young man before tapping a seat on the ground next to him.
  33.  
  34. "Take a seat young one if you are willing to listen there are five Divine dragons in total. Each worked on a part of the world that we walk around today, there have been said to bless races. I know of two more on this island there is a race in dawn that was blessed by Ryujin but I think they he fell from the path he set out for them.
  35.  
  36. There is us in Haungzhou that follow the teaching of shenlong they will have horns similar to mine and a tail. We look to follow the core principles of what shenlong impressed on us. Loyalty, Duty and perseverance.
  37.  
  38. And there are those that were blessed by Quetzalcoatlin Gehenna."
  39. (Yawen-An Zhenlin)
  40. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  41.  
  42. [15:55] Manji plopped himself down onto the ground rather quickly, sitting cross legged as his chain on his legs rattled against the ground. He listened to the man intently as he spoke. He hadn't even heard of a dragon before but it definitely seemed powerful if it was able to make the older man in front of him like this. He nodded his head occasionally as the man spoke so if the man checked he would see that Manji was in fact listening to every word spoken by him.
  43.  
  44. "What happen to Ryujin? Is he still in dawn or is he like somewhere else now making others powerful? Why did Shenlong choose this place? Is there something special about this place? What is a dragon?" Manji seemed to barrage the older man with questions that popped into his head, this all sounded very interesting, at least to him.
  45.  
  46. (Manji Ekiken)
  47. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  48.  
  49. [16:02] Hejira says, "Hahaha i've already forgot the advice you gave me and i dont really keep to myself alot "
  50. [16:06] * You have been awarded 2 Roleplay Points! *
  51. [16:06] Hejira get a little excited after hearing the annoyance in Tlorains voice and hopes to see somebody get their ass kicked.
  52.  
  53. (Hejira)
  54. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  55.  
  56. [16:06] Yasiue Tsuki exclaims, "Hello!"
  57. [16:09] He looked at the man before turning his attention to the square as he held out his hand allowing the lightning as he turned the energy into an image.
  58.  
  59. "There are still people of the linage in Dawn but the divine spirit does not reside there no. As for shenlong in the beginning there was none of us but we knew where the spirit rest. So we took a pilgrimage in times long past our ancestors took that pilgrimage to find him. They survived many hard ships to present themselves to the dragon. He saw there wiliness to try and reach him and so they were blessed. I do not think there was something special about the place but the people that were willing to try and reach him."
  60. (Yawen-An Zhenlin)
  61. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  62.  
  63. [16:13] Manji continued to nod his head as he listened to the man, he still didn't entirely understand anything about what a dragon actually was besides that it was some spirit that was very strong and gave people power with horns and tails. Manji had wanted to touch the mans tail but thought that he shouldn't in case the man got mad. He stared curiously as the man toyed with the lightning power, not exactly sure what he was doing with it. He counted on his fingers for a moment and realized that the man had only mentioned three of these five dragons.
  64.  
  65. "What about the other two? Do they reside somewhere like shenlong and that other one that has a hard name to say. Or are they doing something else?"
  66.  
  67. (Manji Ekiken)
  68. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  69. [16:14] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "I do not know "
  70. [16:14] Manji Ekiken asks, "Can Shenlong make me strong?"
  71. [16:15] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "I am sure faith in them can yes"
  72. [16:16] Manji Ekiken asks, "how do i give them faith?"
  73. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  74.  
  75. [16:17] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Pray, action of worship and the like, to keep the faith in hard time."
  76. [16:17] Manji Ekiken asks, "What should i pray for?"
  77. [16:18] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Let us start from the beginning shall we of understand who the dragons are then we moved to meditation."
  78. [16:18] Manji Ekiken says, "alright."
  79. [16:21] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Sit young one and we can talk about shenlong "
  80. [16:21] Manji was still sitting on the ground, cross legged as he hadn't gotten up from before.
  81. (Manji Ekiken)
  82. ---------------------------------------------------------------
  83.  
  84. [16:23] Manji Ekiken says, "I am sitting sir."
  85. [16:23] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "I'm my lifetime of studing the teaching and knowledge of Shenlong I have come to pull three core values of those that follow him."
  86. [16:24] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "We value Loyality, Duty and perseverance,Preseverance being the greatest of these."
  87. [16:25] Manji looked down at his legs and arms where the various marks from the beatings he used to get still were, he assumed that he had persevered a lot but he might need to do more so he asked about the other two things.
  88.  
  89. "How do I show loyalty and duty? Should I also swing a sword or staff a hundred times or till my hands bleed?"
  90.  
  91. (Manji Ekiken)
  92. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  93.  
  94. [16:28] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "One at a time young one one at a time. Focus on the Loyalty"
  95. [16:29] Manji Ekiken asks, "how do i show loyalty?"
  96. [16:30] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Focus on what it means to be loyal to a cause or loyal to a place. I would say I am loyal to Haungzhou to the ideal and cause it repsents never have I acted against it even then it would make my life eaiser."
  97. [16:30] Manji Ekiken asks, "Hrm, so i need to find something i will remain loyal to?"
  98. [16:30] Manji Ekiken asks, "can it be anything?"
  99. [16:33] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "If you plan of follow Shenlong I would focus on something about Haungzhou but yes you are called to be loyal. You can be loyal to the faith also if is something that calls to you."
  100. [16:34] Manji held up his wrists, showing the iron chains wrapped around them, his wrists were probably red due to irritation of the chains rubbing against his skin though he didn't seem to care to much about it or mention that.
  101.  
  102. "Can I be loyal to these? I always wear them and never lose them. I want to keep them forever."
  103.  
  104. (Manji Ekiken)
  105. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  106.  
  107. [16:36] Zhenlin looked at the chains for a second before turning his attention back to the square he had an idea of what they were used for but said nothing after all chains like that were used on him at one point.
  108.  
  109. "I am sorry young one but no, those will not suffice. Think on what is important to who you are and what you are then you might be able to find and ideal or a place to be loyal to."
  110. (Yawen-An Zhenlin)
  111. [16:39] Manji let out a soft sigh as he said that his chains couldn't be used, he had grown used to him and felt apart of him at this point and still refused to get rid of them. He played with the chains wrapped around of his foot idly as he sat there, trying to think of something to stay loyal to.
  112.  
  113. "What if I stay loyal to like uh the path of the warrior? Would that count?"
  114.  
  115. (Manji Ekiken)
  116. [16:48] He let the lightning gather in his hand bouncing back between his fingers as he talked.
  117.  
  118. "It is a good path but do you understand what that might require nothing can stop you from being on this path, not friends , not family, not love nor compassion. I spend twenty years in a city that hated everything about this place four of those years were spent in a dungeon, they hated its people its ideals it values everything. The head doctor wanted to wipe my race from this earth even thought saying about one sentence would have gotten me my freedom.
  119.  
  120. I never helped them to plan an attack against this place, I never told them about how this place was ran and how those that defended it fought. No matter how much it would have made my life better no matter who threatened me I never told them any thing. I will admit it was with the teachings of Master Hall I was able to last as long as I did. But I never turned against Haungzhou even then it seemed they had forgotten I was imprisoned.
  121.  
  122. Can you say you will be able to follow the path of a warrior like this? There are many other division in the Haungzhou army maybe one of them calls to you?"
  123. (Yawen-An Zhenlin)
  124. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  125.  
  126. [16:51] Ren Shi asks, "Do you have a hint of your weaknesses?"
  127. [16:52] Manji sat there silently as he thought about it, his only memory of his family now was them giving him to strange man for a pouch, he never knew what was inside of the pouch. Only that when he thought about it, his chest began to burn and he felt like punching something. So he had no family to hold him back and he hadn't even made any friends yet due to travelling with the men who beat him regularly. He didn't love anyone and didn't understand what he felt compassionate about. He twisted the iron chains on his legs tighter and tighter till they squeezed his ankles tightly as he tried to think more deeply on it, he could handle being beaten, cut and probably water boarded so he knew he could possibly be fine if he was captured. He thought that it might be smart to ask about these other divisions.
  128.  
  129. "What are the other divisions? Do they have different paths?"
  130.  
  131. (Manji Ekiken)
  132. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  133.  
  134. [17:02] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "The Shogun handles the armed forces and there is a mediical division."
  135. [17:03] Manji Ekiken says, "I don't think i'd be a good medic."
  136. [17:03] Manji Ekiken asks, "Is there anything else?"
  137. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  138.  
  139. [17:07] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "You can be loyal to Hunagzhou itself and not workk for a part of the amry if you think there is no stong fix but I would suggest the armed forces it is where most go when they are young."
  140. [17:08] Manji Ekiken asks, "I don't really know how to fight yet,will they teach me that?"
  141. [17:14] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "They will assist in helping you to find sparring partners and I am always here to help if it is needed"
  142. [17:14] Manji Ekiken says, "How do you that thing that was in your hands? I haven't seen that before."
  143. [17:19] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "I have had a lot of practice over the years to control the blessing I was given. A great many years."
  144. [17:20] Manji Ekiken asks, "Does it hurt or anything to use? Did shenlong give it to you?"
  145. [17:21] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Presonal no he did not but he did give it to my family line from a long time ago. It doesnt hurt though "
  146. [17:22] Manji Ekiken asks, "So he gave it to your dads dad? Or your dads dads dads dads dads dad?"
  147. [17:22] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Further back I would happen to guess "
  148. [17:22] Manji Ekiken says, "That is a lot of dads to go through."
  149. [17:24] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "That it is so I keep the faith alive as much as I can."
  150. [17:24] Manji Ekiken asks, "what happens if you lose your faith?"
  151. [17:27] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "I do not know."
  152. [17:28] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "If you are well taught and true in the faith I do not think you will lose it "
  153. [17:31] Manji Ekiken asks, "Alright, so i need to find a path for myself and stick to it for shenlong to notice me?"
  154. [17:34] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Three tenats young one Loyality is the first, it is followed by Duty, and preservance. They all are ideals that are held when looking to shenlong of the divine five but we do not neglect the faith as a whole."
  155. [17:34] Manji Ekiken asks, "so first i find a path to become loyal to, then i follow my duty in that path then i persevere anything that comes my way?"
  156. [17:39] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Yes will still keeping up with matter of the divine five faith as a whole. Just because we follow the path of one does not mean we do not seek to keep the balance in the faith. All are equal in importance young one."
  157. [17:44] Manji Ekiken says, "is there any prayers i should say to shenlong? "
  158. [17:46] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Hmm meditation the first activity try to empty the mind."
  159. [17:47] Manji Ekiken asks, "like of everything?"
  160. [17:47] Manji Ekiken asks, "won't that kill you?"
  161. [17:48] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "We sit crossed legs and breath focus on nothing but the breathing. Bring piece to the mind."
  162. [17:48] Manji Ekiken says, "That sounds hard."
  163. [17:51] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Faith doesnt tend to be easy"
  164. [17:52] Manji Ekiken asks, "Do i have to meditate every day?"
  165. [17:53] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "I would sugget it we will start with this."
  166. [17:53] Manji Ekiken asks, "How long does meditating take?"
  167. [17:56] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "It is said that shenlong rest on the storm that never ends, so we meditation outside."
  168. [17:57] Manji Ekiken asks, "So every day i should meditate for an hour?"
  169. [17:59] Hisashi closes his book a moment.
  170. (Hisashi Sone)
  171. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  172.  
  173. [17:59] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "Yes for two years"
  174. [18:00] Manji Ekiken says, "Alright, well i shall do that for one hour for the next two years then."
  175. [18:03] Yawen-An Zhenlin says, "It will benefit you young one"
