Seo Wol

The Grand Immortal was leaning against a corridor pillar. Not meditating, just standing there a long while.

• WicheonSenior Sister. That's not the kind of thing you go around repeating.
  Seo WolRepeating? I just said what I saw.
• BeomoDown the mountain, a story like that fetches two spirit stones. Just joking, mind.

I lined up three mouths that were gossiping in front of the quarters. I hate nothing more than talk behind someone's back.

• WicheonWhat if I'd been one of the three.
  Seo WolIf it'd been you, I'd have made it four.
• Hongro JininI won't stop you. Come see me if you get hurt.

If there's a patch in the dawn herb garden where the dew's been brushed away, the Grand Immortal has already passed through. Everyone knows it, and nobody talks about it.

• Hongro JininThree spirit herb roots were missing. Tell me about that one.
  Seo WolMaster, I ate those.
• HyeonjinjaThere is no provision in sect law for entering the herb garden after the Hour of the Ox.
