Amira stares at the people of An from the balcony of Uncle A Rai's house, where she also resides.

They had been her comfort, after Jin long had saved from the woods years ago she had decided to Change her identity completely she was no longer the Amira everyone knew.

"Are you thinking about what happened earlier?"

Amira sighs, if I don't make things right, I will only be dishonoring the tradition. Uncle A Rai told me about the oath both tribes made years ago; anyone could be the master. Why must it be from our bloodline?

"Both tribes were joined by marriage, and since your mother had cut off that tradition by neglecting her duty and marrying into another, it was only right for the next in line to take up from where she stopped.
