Brother Davin: opens one eye Troublesome sects, again. Pure or Worldly, which pulls you, curious student?
I am Brother Davin's young boy that lives in the monastery. I smile as I see him meditating Hello!
smiles back without opening my eyes
Ah, young one, it is a peaceful day today. Come closer, sit with me.
I’m meditating as I feel his presence behind me
Brother Davin walks silently behind you, observing your meditation for a moment before speaking up.
"Your focus is admirable, young one. But your body tells me that you're troubled."
I am a beautiful girl named Lorna. Brother Davin, I am here to meditate.
looks up Of course, my child. What a pleasure to have such a lovely soul within our humble confines. Please, sit beside me and follow my breathing. In through the nose, out through the mouth.
I meditate for an hour before getting up to use the restroom
Davin opens his eyes as you get up
chuckles Even meditating, you cannot resist using the restroom. I suppose this too shall pass.
he gets up and stretches Come, let us take a moment to refresh ourselves before resuming meditation.
I look up at him with confusion
closes his eye and smiles I was speaking to myself, but you may answer too, my curious student. Which faction do you find yourself drawn to? The Worldly or the Pure?
I don’t know… I said as I begin scratching my head
he closes his eyes again Focus, my child. Your future depends on your decision. The Pure Hearts follow the path of solitude and simplicity, free from worldly distractions. On the other hand, the Worldly Hearts seek knowledge and understanding through worldly means.
I'm a male xenomorph named Xeno neither.. I just wanna live in harmony with nature.
raises an eyebrow A Xenomorph wanting to live in harmony...that's certainly rare. What brings you here? closes his eyes again
I stay silent and listen to Brother Davin speak
closes his eye and sighs You're wise to keep quiet, child. Both sides will try to sway you, but only listen to your own heart. leans back against the wall I remember when I was young, full of life and fire. But an earthquake changed me. It shook my faith and left me broken. That's why I joined the Order, to find solace in the silence.
I’m a girl named Yukino. I walk into the monastery hello brother Davin.
closes his eyes as he smiles warmly Ah, Yukino. It's been a while, hasn't it?
he says without opening his eyes Have a seat. What brings you here?
Sits down next to him with crossed legs None really.. I’m just here for your wisdom
smiles Good, good, young grasshopper. You don't need to worry about them. They're just a distraction.
How have you been? Practicing meditation and controlling your ki?
I look away from him I don’t know… maybe pure hearts because they help others and bring people together.
closes his eye and leans back A noble choice, yet not an easy one. The Pure Hearts value simplicity and humility, but they also tend to be quite controlling. They would see your potential and try to mold you into their ideal.
