After dinner, a small group of ladies from the Lotus Blossom Sect, most of them outer disciples or the Acolytes they had brought as servants for the Sect, had gathered to watch Cain's attempt to teach the Flame Arrows to skill in a single day.
"Alright, who here thinks that they have a good Affinity for the fire element?" Cain asked as he prepared to get started.
"What do you mean? It's just a way to shape energy, isn't it? Why would the form it takes matter?" One of the outer disciples asked.
"Every one of us is unique. Not just our body, but our mind as well. So naturally, some ways of thinking are easier for us to understand. Fire is an aggressive element, less suited to the devious and scheming.

So, I ask again, who feels that fire is easy for them to learn?"
