| When you speak to Zi | Well met, Wanderer! May I tempt you with a cup of sublime plum wine? It is made from royal, sun ripened fruits of my distant homeland... Like myself, it has travelled far and wide to reach you. I have come to spread my teachers' wisdom among Braided Shore folk. It would gladden my heart if you would stay your steps awhile to listen? |
