"Trust me Lana, you may not fear death, but I shall change that in due time. Only through the fear of death does one embrace life and gain enlightenment. A wise Earth man once said, "to know others is a skill, but to know yourself is enlightenment." You shall learn things about yourself you did not know in my little "trial by fire," and come to embrace the privilege of life that the Gods have bestowed upon you.
We shall first start be inducting you into the ranks of our monks, and from there your training shall begin. And do bear in mind that strength come not only from the body, but the spirit as well. To reiterate, an open mind will do wonders for your training."
Pulling Lana to her feet, he hoped his message conveyed that this training would indeed teach her the art of proficient hand-to-hand combat, but that she would also have to expand her spiritual horizons and come to embrace that which she has, rather that which she could come to possess, but deep inside he feared that she would be one fueled by the prospect of power rather then gaining a deeper sense of things. Releasing her hand, he began to walk toward the city within the Master Volcano Atoll hoping to induct Lana as soon as possible and begin her training.
((Do you wanna close it here?))
