@wuhei : " .. you are husband material. " this was said after staring at jing yuan for a good ten minutes in pure silence.

the   look   of   surprise   on   his   features   was   gentle,   carried   mostly   by   a   set   of   raised   brows   once   the   shadow   guard   spoke   up.   he   had   been   fine   to   let   him   stare   at   him   in   silence,   as   his   taciturn   ways   were   not   something   the   general   took   long   to   grow   accustomed   to. 

still,   such   a   proclamation   was   certainly   unexpected.   he   had   heard   it   before,   however,   over   the   years.

❛    an   unforeseen   compliment,   but   an   appreciated   one   nevertheless,   ❜   he   mused,   lips   upturned   into   the   usual   smile,   though   a   touch   of   solemnity   came   with   it.   still,   he   sounded   every   bit   amused,   at   least.   ❛    i   cannot   help   but   wonder,   however,   what   earned   me   such   praise   ?   ❜

"Yes, I am." She replied with a nod. "I was able to finish my assignments sooner than expected, so I was actually able to get off early." The smile on Chenhua's face faltered a little, her ears lowering slightly as she let out a near shaky sigh.

Maybe he had been out of practice longer than he had thought in the first place, grunting from the pain of the way his back had collided into the wall. Well, nice confirmation that business on the Luofu was far more detrimental than March’s last letter had implicated... 

"I take it you're not the type to back down so easily."

With Cloud-Piercer brandished at his side, it seemed as though the lull waiting for the Wardance Ceremony in the wake of Hoolay's escape had led to a restless retainer and equally impatient retainer being waylaid for what they had been determined to do. On the deck of the Sky Splicer, the battlegrounds were freed for their use, the brisk wind of the Luofu's upper atmosphere cutting across the battlefield.

" we all make mistakes, and we all pay a price. "

He did not have a lot to say on the subject. He remembered now, he knew why and it still only made him wish to distance himself from the life that Dan Feng had lived. He glanced to the shadow though and gave him a small smile and a dip of his head. "This is just a fact of life…only our people, continue to be punished if they have done things to bring about such tragedies." he stated.

His had been almost unforgiveable in his hubris.

Dan Heng crossed his arms over his chest and looked out over the water. His eyes on the sparkling waves and he could still feel the ease to pull them to summon the wind. It was not quiet over powering once he had accepted this. Now it was learning to not over influence anything. In a way it was like learning how to walk all over again.

Only on a mystical level.

He folded his hands into the long robes and his tail swished under them coiling. "I know you did not come here to hear my wax and wan on my own inner thoughts." the imbibitor lunae said with a tip of his head. The small chains he had allowed Bailu to put on his horns early chimed with the motion, he would need to remember to take those off later.

"Is there anything I can help you with ?" he asked "I know the Astral Express will not be here for very long."
