{He is dressed like a proper Lan disciple. The robes are more comfortable - more familiar to him - and, of course, he can't ever dispense of his headband. The plucking of strings can be heard, but since the camera is focused on his face, the guqin isn't in view.}

I've tried several times to commune with spirits, but there doesn't seem to be any nearby.

{The idea occurred to him when he heard others talking about voids being places spirits travel through.}

I didn't know if that might be comforting to anyone. We're not among the dead.

Do you get holidays? Or are you like. 24/7, 365 days a year?

[lansizhui]

We are on call when we are needed. Of course if we are sick or over tired and our presence isn't absolutely necessary, we can rest instead.

[stealsyourheart]

Huh. Sounds pretty hectic. Guess at least you'd get to travel huh?

[lansizhui]

A lot! I've seen many places. I like to travel even if my feet get tired.

[stealsyourheart]

D'you not like. Ride horses or something or do you walk everywhere?

[lansizhui]

We can, but they require extra care. I'm not even sure if the Gusu Lan Sect has enough horses for everyone, though we do have a stable.

[stealsyourheart]

Huh... what happens if you need to get somewhere in a hurry?

[lansizhui]

We are usually spread out into teams. If one team isn't enough, we call for help from the others.

[stealsyourheart]

That makes sense. [ He agrees ]

So you're like soldiers, posted around the place?
