Flavour
Master Yi's mind drifted to the 1 Darkin weapon. Ever since its discovery, he'd been troubled by a terrible sense of foreboding. Some of his students had taken a keen interest-too keen-so he had the curved blades placed under guard, deep within the temple. With some effort, he pushed those thoughts from his mind and continued his meditation. Passing on the teachings of Wuju was all that mattered, and 3 Jun showed great promise.

Flavour
From the corner of his eye, Yi saw the flash of steel and heard the unmistakable thud of a lifeless body. Could it have been 3 her? How could he have failed his pupils so utterly? They were untrained and unprepared. But he was a master of Wuju, and neither shame nor shadow would win the day.

Original Master Yi: Base Skin

1 / 31-Aug-2022

Level 1

Master Yi's mind drifted to the 1 Darkin weapon. Ever since its discovery, he'd been troubled by a terrible sense of foreboding. Some of his students had taken a keen interest-too keen-so he had the curved blades placed under guard, deep within the temple. With some effort, he pushed those thoughts from his mind and continued his meditation. Passing on the teachings of Wuju was all that mattered, and 3 Jun showed great promise.

Level 2

From the corner of his eye, Yi saw the flash of steel and heard the unmistakable thud of a lifeless body. Could it have been 3 her? How could he have failed his pupils so utterly? They were untrained and unprepared. But he was a master of Wuju, and neither shame nor shadow would win the day.

Level 1

The Spirit of Legacy is a tragic entity, a swordsman lost in a perpetual search for a pupil worthy of his tutelage...

Level 2

...yet is it a warrior's potential that Master Yi seeks? Or is it a sturdy heart--one that could never betray his trust?
