"That is wonderful. This one fears we might need to soon enough. The temple has already begun preparing things for transport. If the ghost seizes the city, it will have no respect for what we have here. We cannot risk waiting."

She nodded, “As it is written: ‘Hesitation is the seed of defeat.’l

"It was been long since members of this temple have followed the martial aspects of the Path, and this one would appreciate it if you could take our most secret scrolls to Nikesake for protection."

"If the enemy forces take the city you mean?" She asked. "I would need permission from my lord to leave... which he may not grant given the current situation."

Kioka · **Joined:** Mon Apr 06, 2020 10:21 pm **Posts:** 86

She nods.

"Yes, if the city is captured, but I fear to wait that long. Some duties must surpass others. It is the way of the world."

Ren nodded in return, "Then I will take them as soon as you require."

Kioka bows deeply.

"It is the Paths you walk that will help bring about a greater day in this Empire, through your actions and those around you that you inspire."

She smiles at Ren.

"You do not need to rush out of the city, and this one trusts your judgement of when it will be necessary to leave to keep them safe."

"You are too kind Lady Kioka." She said with a bow.

"I merely do what my spirit guides me to do... I hope it is of benefit to some."

"You know this importance of the Path, and your belief is that we all walk the Path together, is it not? Then this one is not too kind, what is said must be true. This one entrusts these scrolls to you so that more may learn their secrets."

"I will do all in my power to see as many walk the path that leads them to our collective destination." She said with a bow.

She gives you the scrolls she intends you to take, but you can tell it is hard for her to part with them.

Ren always tended to be a fairly attentive woman and paused for a moment to look Kioka in the eyes.

It looks like they might be misting up some.

"To live in such times," is all she says.

Akodo Ren · **Joined:** Thu Apr 02, 2020 5:10 am **Posts:** 380

"You live in such times... And for that we all can feel comforted." She said with a smile as she put her hand on the older monk's shoulder.

Kioka · **Joined:** Mon Apr 06, 2020 10:21 pm **Posts:** 86

She flashes a warm, sad smile.

"Thank you. May the Tao guide you."

Akodo Ren · **Joined:** Thu Apr 02, 2020 5:10 am **Posts:** 380

"And you as well." She said with a bow as she safely packed away the scrolls and made for the /exit.
