Cai explained, looking very wistful. "No doubt she has many other students under her now. I was forced to leave to return to aid my father before my training was complete. Although I mastered many of the techniques, I have yet to learn to balance myself properly after a fight or when things become tense. I am vulnerable to any who would take command like my Mistress used to." She said again, staring into her tea and watching the steam rise. "She taught me so much, but not how to balance myself without her command."<br/><br/>She glanced up, soft eyes gazing at Min-hee. "When I saw you in the parlor I felt that I was intruding." She hung her head in shame, staring at her bare thighs. "I did not feel that I deserved to see you in such a state. I felt that I was being inexcusably rude. I was weak and I fled. I am so sorry that you felt I was repulsed, it was..." Her blush deepened. "It was quite the opposite. But I did not deserve it." She glanced up again, "I wish it had been you that came up from behind me." She said, voice so soft it was almost a whisper. "At first I thought perhaps it was, but that was just a dream of course." She glanced back into her tea and took a short little sip.<br/><br/>"I am sure that you saw and understood when I unleashed my whirlwind on the rocking stone, that my element is not metal precisely, but Gold. My father believes it is because of the great wealth of our family, but that is not the case. Although gold is precious, it is also the softest of metals. Easy to control, easy to shape, without a firm hand controlling Gold, it is just another rock to be fought over. With an artist in control, gold can be used to create something of true beauty. My mistress was once that artist for me, but now I am afraid I feel formlesss again, to my great shame." Cai sipped her tea again and let the silence of her confession hang in the air.<br/><br/>
