Just horsing around, playing with my monkey.

IRL kept me much busier during this game than I would have liked, especially towards the end. I'm happy to answer questions, however.

Awaiting her turn to present a gift, Jingyi immediately knelt and bowed low alongside everyone else.

This looked like it would be fun. Jingyi spent many hours tending to her equipment in the wilderness. Her methods were, perhaps not the same as the others, but she had her way of keeping her blades sharp. She debated for a moment on how she wanted to undertake the obstacle course. She was trained as...

Jingyi had very little understanding of art. That had become painfully clear. She hoped, perhaps, trying to help at the shrine might inspire some hidden talent she was unaware of. It did not. - - - [EA8] - Art for the Temple, Balm For the Soul, Sculpture, Water 3/Aesthetics 0, TN 2 | TN: 2 | Success...

Meditation was not something Jingyi was familiar with. She understood what it was and had even attempted it in the past. But, she had never found any benefit from it. Calming herself was simple enough, but gained no extra sense of self or what might be. - - - [LM8] - Test of Piety, Step 1, Water 3/T...

"That does sound nice." she nodded. "The stars can be particularly captivating."

Her cheeks reddened and she looked away.

"I really don't understand poetry..." she sighed. "Animals are so much easier ."

"There were two." she explained. "The first I thought was one of those letter games I've heard of. The second could be too, I suppose, but it seemed odd." She handed the letters over.

"Oh yes, I was hoping to find those." she grinned. 'Is there anything else? I received some letters suggesting I come out here."

"I agree entirely." she nodded. "What do you know about this forest, Kakita-sama? Are there any points of interest within it or legends about it?"

"Hai. I still feel a bit lost in it all." she admitted. "But, it's exciting, thinking about what may come next. How do you feel about it all, Kakita-sama?"

"A child of the wind
Racing for new horizons
What path lies beyond?"

Jingyi was proud of her ancestors. She had always been particularly interested in the histories of those who had been a part of the travels beyond the Empire. But, the stories she knew were more like fragments and anecdotes than epic tales. - - - [LM7] - Test of the Ancestor, Step 1, Water 3/Culture...

"Perhaps he's just a good listener." she suggested. "I have the poem you requested, by the way."

"Exactly." She grinned and climbed into the saddle. "May I join you on your ride?"

"You should see the Utaku mounts." she laughed. "Hayakawa-kun doesn't match their size. But, size isn't as important as other traits."

She patted the horses neck

The Unicorn whistled and another horse soon approached from a nearby clearing.

"I would say the same about Hayakawa. He's always ready for a new adventure."
.

"It is, Kakita-sama." she smiled and dipped her head. Looking over the horse, she asked, "And, who is this?"
