The Heart of the White Dragon

<p>Soon Master Long was back to insisting that everyone attend his early morning physical training sessions.  Emilian found it very strange that MeiLan always gave over to whatever Master Long wanted.  If Master Long said to get up before sunrise to practice, MeiLan got up before sunrise.  If Master Long said everyone must copy the Six Virtues, then MeiLan took out her ink and started copying, and gave everyone else the order to do so also.  For Emilian, it was like torture, because he didn't want to obey Long, but he couldn't disobey his mistress.  </p>
