2nd Katti: [Action]

[So Lyn's had a strange time adjusting to Luceti. On the good side, she found three of her friends almost immediately after arriving.

On the bad side, she's trapped, she's been told to expect unpleasantness from the Malnosso, and one of said friends has been kidnapped.

How does she intend to deal with the stress this brings on her? Training! She's out in a clearing away from general foot traffic, Mani Katti drawn, going through various battle stances. Interrupt? Challenge her? Or just watch? The choice is yours.]

Well, it was some time ago. I've moved on.

At any rate, I ended up under attack by some assassins who did know who I was, and a pair of knights loyal to my grandfather came to help me. When they learned of my identity, they insisted I return to my mother's home with them... I did, but only because I wanted to meet my grandfather.

You did meet him, didn't you? Since you ended up passing your control over to another ruler, which means you must have gotten to him.

Not bad. You're not bad at all.

Yes, in the end we managed to make our way back to him, and took down my uncle, who'd been poisoning him to take the title for himself. My grandfather and I spent a few years together after that, interrupted by the war I mentioned... and then when he died, I went back to the plains I grew up in.

Well I'm glad you think so.

Why am I not surprised your uncle was trying to poison him of all things? At least you gave him what was coming. . . Back to your old life, huh?

The name's Sokka, by the way. What would your name be, O fellow tribes person?

Yes, we brought him down... I gave the final blow myself. Yes. It's less flashy, but... it's what I'm used to.

It's Lyn. Very good to meet you, Sokka. So what tribe are you from?

Hey, if that's how you want to live your life, that's your choice. I find a simple life plan can be more tolerable than a complicated one with politics.

Nice meeting you, Lyn. I'm from the Southern Water Tribe.

Thankfully, my friends thought the same as you. I was worried they'd be upset I was leaving them, but... they were all very supportive.

Water tribe, hmmm? I gather that means people in your tribe can control water like Azula and her brother control fire?

It's good to respect your friends' choices. You're naturally better adapted at living as a plains person.

Sort of. Here's the thing; my sister's the only one who can waterbend in my tribe. The Northern Water Tribe has plenty of them though.

Ah, so it's like magic back on my world, only a few people can use it. So you're what? A warrior? A tactician?

Just about; I like to classify bending as a form of magic. I'm a bit of both, actually, but I'm a warrior through and through.

That's a good looking sword. Who taught you in it's use?

Made it myself. Master Piandao was the one who taught me.

It was my parents who taught me. My sword, though... [She looks down at the Mani Katti.] It's an heirloom weapon from my people.

Heirloom, huh? Looks pretty cool.
