The living story
The story so far
The old guard. Remembers when duels were settled with honor and complains the young ones use ‘technique’ — while teaching technique.
Happening now
He has taken the Chinese Mantis as a student, and the Violin Mantis has composed something that sounds suspiciously like a training montage. The Orchid Mantis has requested a front-petal seat for the first sparring session, which everyone agrees is either mentorship or scouting.
What may come
Honor plus technique could make a champion — or prove the old guard right about everything. He is taking bets against himself, quietly.
