Sharp eyes glanced about, taking in the people attending the festival, particularly the participants, though she made no move to become one herself. Instead she just watched, observing them and seeing what they would do. Such contests were rarely the sort of thing she liked to participate in. She wasn't fond of showing off her kung fu to crowds. She preferred more private duels, when she found an opponent worthy of sparring with. To her, the martial arts weren't a sport to be displayed for bragging rights. The perfection of martial arts was about fostering one's own strength, both inner strength and physical power. It was never about glory to her.<br/><br/>Still, she wasn't without any sense of joy. She enjoyed the spectacle, she enjoyed watching others compete. There was always the chance she'd find someone worthy of interest. Even if there wasn't, there was something about the atmosphere that was simply enjoyable. Not to mention the fact that festivals like this often meant there was a large stock of good wine and good food nearby.<br/><br/>Her attention was caught by Wu Cai and Shin Min-hee, glancing between the two. A small smile crept on to her lips, even as she heard a rumble in her stomach. She turned away without saying a thing, deciding form just a glance that those two would prove interesting. Regardless, she'd seen all she needed to see. For now, she decided it was time to find something to eat and some wine to wash it down with.<br/><br/>Coming to this village seemed a decision that would most certainly be rewarded.<br/>
