213 - I am Ping

Plotline: Main

Type: Social

"I name you... hm... Ping." Kong Bai said. "We don't have time to create a family name for you, so sorry."

"You act as if the soldiers arrive soon." I said.

"The soldiers arrived this morning, and are enjoying a meal before telling us what their business here is."

"Oh, I'd best get into the orchard, then." I said.

"You should get beyond that, and run." Monk Kong said. "They have a tracking hound with them."

"I can run faster in my native form." I grumbled. But Fleet of Foot wasn't keyed to a given form, just to my running speed. I made my way to the wooded valley, below, and began setting up traps.

In retrospect, I'm certain the monks would have preferred that I run further.
