Biohuman

Jyu\'so entered the Crystallium Tower, waving at Zixin before he closed the door behind him. The smell of papers, books and incense made him run his nose. Lady Vix\'i moved to sit at the table as she waved her hands. A teapot filled with water and began to boil as teacups, plates and snacks floated over to the table.

"You didn\'t even come to see me when you were here. Now you come see me after you\'ve left for the Tomb? What do you want, brother?" Lady Vix\'i asked. Jyu\'so got up on the chair and sat down. He floated in mid air as he folded his arms.

"There isn\'t much to discuss with you about what I\'ve been up to, sister. You know how it is to run a village." Jyu\'so started.

"Yes, yes, yes. That\'s why I indulge in research while you dilly-dally like a child. I\'ve heard you\'ve been sticking your nose around Dat\'e. Why?"

"It seems my problem has entered your humble village, my dear sister." Jyu\'so truthfully told her. A cookie flew up to him as he grabbed it and took a bite of it. "The Merfolk are getting desperate. They want the Silver one now."

"Why do they want Keng, Jyu\'so? What\'s so special about him?"

"The God King told the Merfolk leader I\'ve been in discussions with, the Silver one will aid them in a troubling time. I\'ve been personally asked to guide the young one. I fear there isn\'t much time thus I came to you."

"What do you want?" Lady Vix\'i asked. The teapot hissed. Lady Vix\'i flicked a finger up and the pot lifted from it\'s spot on the fire xhestals and moved over to the table. It began to pour hot water as sacks of tea leaves dunked themselves into the water.

"Keng is currently training to learn how to control his Sight Sensory. It seems he has a rare effect that has occured." Jyu\'so told his sister.

"An effect? What is it? Illusions?"

"No. He can see colors of energy. It takes a toll on his head. He\'s unknowingly channeling it to his head thus causing the strange effect to happen. I haven\'t come across this one in all my years. I\'ve probably forgotten all about it." Jyu\'so sighed as the teacup and plate moved towards him. He grabbed it and took a sip of the scalding tea.

"Color sight sensory…" Lady Vix\'i whispered. She snapped her fingers and three books flew off of their place on the bookshelves and landed on the table. She pulled one out of the stack and began to flip through it. "Can you describe it in more detail?"

"He focuses and see\'s misty colors. At least that\'s the best he describes it, abstract-wise. \'The colors of the forest. I see it with my eyes closed. I can see the blue leaves, the blue water, green grass, and brown tree bark. I can even see the black energy that is you.\' That\'s how he described it to me."

Lady Vix\'i flipped through the book, quickly moving through half of the book before landing on the exact page.

"This one." She tapped. She lifted the book and hovered the page in front of her brother. "Aura color sight."

"\'The bearer can see the aura around him/her. First recorded back in 253G, Ce\'les was the first one to report seeing energy auras as colors.\'" Jyu\'so read aloud.

"Ce\'les was one of the first Fox Spirits in recorded history to have it. There are many after her, hundreds and hundreds of years later that have reported it."

"These are all names I don\'t remember."

"It\'s been ages but I do remember their names from an experiment that was done maybe 400 years ago?" Lady Vix\'i recalled. Jyu\'so closed the book and let it set itself on the table.

"Is there anyone who can help the Silver one understand what is happening?" Jyu\'so asked.

"Anyone who could help…?" Lady Vix\'i whispered. She thought for a while and then shook her head at her brother. "All who bear the Aura color effect usually live short lives."

"They all died? Maybe that\'s why I don\'t remember these names." Jyu\'so looked at the book.

"If Keng has the Aura color effect for Sight, we need to be careful." Lady Vix\'i motioned at the book to come to her and it did. She opened the book back up and flipped to the next page of Aura color sight. "It says here most are plagued by headaches, migraines, and in rarer cases, mania."

"They can go crazy using it?" Jyu\'so asked.

"Sounds like it. What are his symptoms, again"

"Headaches. I thought it was because he\'s been unknowingly channeling to his head, but what if he\'s actually trying to use the Sight?"

"I don\'t think so, brother." Lady Vix\'i shook her head. "Keng doesn\'t know about Energy manipulation from what Zixin and Navi have told me. He knows the next step but not the base. Like he\'s already wired to fight. Maybe this has to do with Keng and Lee Seng\'s existence?"

"Can you be sure of that? I don\'t know the Golden one well but from what Keng has brought up about him, he - in all retrospect - is a smart warrior."

"Exactly." Lady Vix\'i nodded. "But even that doesn\'t make sense if I think about it."

"How?"

"Y\'see," Lady Vix\'i closed the book. "Lee Seng didn\'t have powers for years after the humans get their powers. His was Eshra\'s. He had no energy yet he\'s like a prodgicial warrior from what I\'ve seen. How does a human kid like that know how to use his powers?

"Yes, he could have learned all of this through the so-called Numbers, but could he actually pull it off well?"

"What\'re you getting at, sister?" Jyu\'so asked.

"What I\'m saying, brother, is that Lee Seng\'s existence, itself, is strange. Keng was planted in him and learned all about Lee Seng in no time through memories like Zixin and Navi had. Something happened either before or during the oact that caused something to happen to these two, splitting them apart. Both wield Fox and Biohuman yet both are completely different."

"Has Keng told you anything else?" Jyu\'so asked. His sister shook her head.

"He shared enough but didn\'t share everything. I\'m not sure if Keng would have the answers." Lady Vix\'i replied. Jyu\'so sighed and nodded.

"We digress. My intention wasn\'t to talk about this but this does bring up good questions I should figure out with the Silver one…" Jyu\'so but his lips as he looked at the table in contemplation. He grabbed his tea and slipped at it some more.

"Oh, that wasn\'t why you came? What\'s the reason for talking to me then?"

"I need some blindfolds for the children." Jyu\'so looked up.

"The children? Isn\'t it just Keng?"

"Ah, no. Keng has a Savior subordinate who happened to come before us. She apparently takes care of the Tomb."

"Ah, Lily Wang." Lady Vix\'i nodded. "Why do you need blindfolds for them? Sight training usually doesn\'t involve blindfolds."

"They\'re both struggling to put the energy in their eye regions. Having a blindfold might help them focus their energy to a specific area. I need two blindfolds enchanted so they feel something across their eyes." Jyu\'so motioned in between his eyes. "Do you have anything like that?"

"It\'s a simple enchantment. Why didn\'t you just ask one of the enchanters for that?" Lady Vix\'i asked.

"Well, you\'re the smartest person I know and I thought you\'d like more context to help me with the children\'s problem." Jyu\'so answered as he gave her a shrug.

"Fine. I can make do with that." Lady Vix\'i stood up. "As for the conversation about Keng and Lee Seng, their existence is a peculiar one at that. I don\'t know why Keng stays here but make sure to return him quickly after whatever you\'re doing to him. You and I both have seen what happens when the Spirit and the Vessel stay away from each other."

Jyu\'so nodded and followed his sister towards the stairs, leaving the teacup and plate on the table. They both saw incompatible Spirits and Vessels before. The demons that they created. The amount of Spirits and Vessels they had to kill in order to not allow negative neety create a disastrous monster.

"Are you gonna tell me why he\'s here or can you not?" Lady Vix\'i asked.

"I can\'t." Jyu\'so told her. Lady Vix\'i nodded.

"Let\'s deal with your training problem for your students. I hope you train them well, brother. I don\'t need tricksters running around like you did back when we were young."

"None of my pupils even lived up to the amount of chaos I caused when I was their age." Jyu\'so chuckled. Lady Vix\'i stepped up onto the top floor of the Crystallium Tower with her brother behind her. "Keng and Lily are too good of kids to cause too much trouble. I can feel it."
