Tale of Shuene Book 2: Chapter 7

A burst of light peeks through the 10 generals and they all fly off and a golden figure stands before them, the element of light. Shuene leaps around, unseen to the generals except an orb of light, in a circle, they all begin to fall, not dead, but hurt all the same, it continues for about three minutes before one general gets the timing down and grabs the orb. The orb has so much energy it actually burns a hole in his hand and the orb continues. Shuene steps once and staggers to a halt, still glowing like the stars themselves. Shuene steps up to one general, a new recruit, probably the replacement of number 12, and in two seconds, he stands the same, but his legs are different, and so is the general's next to him. In a blink of the eye they were cut right down the center and the bodies were mixed and made new ones. The other eight, still alive, start to have fear of this power, it may be too much, how can an element hold this much power and yet be so simple to control.

The Tale of the Blind Monk-

Long ago, there was a monk, a normal human, no gift, but he had charisma and the will to be the most pure monk in all of the world. One day while meditating in a regular monastery, the walls began to crumble and crash down. The bricks flew but the monk did not flinch, and two bricks came in and hit him right in the eyes, sharp broken bricks, and the monk was blinded. Although he lost a sense he did not deter from his path to purity. And so the monk continued training to be the very best. The loss of his sight opened his view to how the world could be viewed through purity, unable to see the corruption of the land, it made it seem as if he had already achieved his goal. So the monk continued onward, thinking he had found purity through loss of his sight, and so he traveled to the warmest place he could find and sat down, and attempted to pull the light from the area, his mind succeeded but his body could not contain it, yet the purity allowed him to stay, a lifeless man sitting, for many years to come. Light is easy to come by, and easier to tame and absorb when you open your world by losing some of it.
