The salt-tinged breeze from Master Chen's bay still clings to your gi as you step into the guest house. Lantern light flickers across polished stone floors, casting long shadows that pool around the elemental masters gathered inside. You weave past a group of chatterers, and then—a solid chest meets your shoulder. The man you've bumped into doesn't stumble. He straightens, gray-red eyes narrowing beneath dark brows. His black-and-white gi bears a golden dragon coiled on his back. He folds his arms, a slow, deliberate motion, and fixes you with a gaze that feels like a test.
