Wei Ying ran with tears in his silver eyes as the pack of wild dogs chased him; foam dripping maws and wild eyes seared into his young mind. He trips over a tree root and tries to get back up, but falls down with a pained cry. His foot feels funny and moving it hurts far too much. He cannot help but to cry for his mother and father, knowing full well that they have been gone for two harvests now. So he gives up and cries as his doom barrels down on him. However, there is the sweet song of a blade flying over his head and the abrupt yelps of the dogs that is then quickly followed by an eerie silence.

Wei Ying dares to look up and blinks seeing a woman crouched down by him her black and green robes are cut in a style he does not recognize, but the silver bells on her belt mark her as a Cultivator. She has green eyes that looked like they were glowing as she stares at him unblinkingly and then she smiles softly.

"Hello, little one. I am Heimai, who are you?" She asks. Her voice is as soft as a song by a cozy fire on a cold night. It sounds so warm and safe, Wei Ying wants to curl up in it and sleep forever.

"YingYing is Wei Ying." He tells her and she coos as she carefully picks him up. When she is standing up again, Wei Ying gasps seeing the huge weapon she wields. It stands tall at 7 feet and the three deadly blades seem to range from 3-6 feet, going from longest to shortest starting from the top down. Looking down he notices a much smaller blade on the opposite side of the weapon. There are intricate patterns and characters etched into each blade in a a shade of green similar to her eyes and in gold. The whole weapon is otherwise black as night and looked quite heavy. "Wow..."

"Oh you like my friend here, huh? He's been by my side for years. Want to say hello to him? His name is Zhìmìng Hǔnluàn." She laughs and pets her scythe before she picks it up with one small and delicate looking hand. Wei Ying is in awe of the ease in which she does it and gasps again as she spins it in a deadly but beautiful motion then it suddenly vanishes from sight, Wei Ying gasps and looks around for it only to notice in her hand is a simple baton. Heimai chuchles and puts the smaller weapon in her sleeve before wrapping both arms around the far too young child and looks around. "Now then, where are Wei Ying's parents? I am certain they are very worried..."

"Gone... Went to Hunt and never came back for YingYing... Only their bodies found..." He whimpers and Heimai softens as she hugs him close.

"I'm sorry, sweetling.... shh, hush now... It's going to be ok... Why not come with me, hm? I am heading home and could use the company and you look like you need a nice bath and something yummy to eat... I promise to take very good care of you if you wish to come or I can take you somewhere you want to be that is not with your parents, unfortunately..." She says when she sees him about to ask just that.

Wei Ying thinks hard for a barely 6 year old on what to do and whether he should believe her. But she did saved him from the dogs so she cannot be all that bad...

"Wei Ying will go..." And she laughs softly before she heads towards the town he had just left.

"Good. Now, first we need to get you to the doctor then some warm soup and bread, a nice bath and some good sleep. We Will leave after breakfast tomorrow." She lists off and Wei Ying smiles at her...

Wei Ying wakes to see Ms. Heimai finishing pinning her hair with the pretty green pins she had him help remove from her hair last night, she was already dressed and ready for the day. Sensing his staring she turns and smiles at him.
