"What about you?" She placed a stone trying to cover one she had left alone. "What do you like?"

"Games." he grinned, placing another stone and beginning to surround one of her groups. "I prefer puzzles, actually. I like learning new things and new ways to look at things."

"Ah... I see." She placed a stone trying to protect her territory. "I haven't met many here yet I have a feeling that with the many people around you'll find a better partner to play than this one."

"Go can be a very challenging game and that does provide entetainment." Another stone. "But, the conversations the players have during the game are generally the greater pleasure. I've enjoyed this one."

"I am glad that this one is good company." She smiled placing down a stone. "You know... I think I do enjoy puzzles as well... specially trying to unknot a what can be seen as an imposible knot."

"Unravelling the truth." he nodded. "It is difficult for me to resist that kind of thing."

Another stone brought him closer to overtaking one of her groups.

"Not truly unraveling the truth more, untangling the heart." The girl tried her best to protect the group of stones. "People have knots that cover wounds that are unseen that need healing and I like to heal those wounds. The idea is to start losing a strand."

"And, then?" he asked with interest, his next move momentarily forgotten.

"Slowly analyze the damage the loosing of the strand made. Because sometimes that strand was just the only one that was keeping the knot tight. When loosen the wound may start to bleed. People may think use fire to burn the and quiet down the bleeding but that doesn't solve the problem that is embedded in the wound." She looked at the Dragon and shook her head. "I am rambling, aren't I sama?"

"Not at all. That was quite imformative." he smiled, finally placing another stone. "I've never thought about it that way."
