"Father had taught me that life is a puzzle. So I guess I apply his views to my work." She shook her head. "What kind of puzzles do you like?"

"Mysteries and riddles." he answered. "But, really any puzzle can be entertaining and enlightening. Sometimes, I may get a little too focused on finding solutions, though."

"I know that feeling Dragon sama." She forgot about the game. "I try my best to keep my patients alive... and unraveling what happened to make such wounds."

He was focused on her, no longer concerned with the board. "That could be very helpful when such wounds are encountered again. That is a very admirable quality."

"I sometimes wish people where more open so one could help explain better how to treat the wound if it starts bleeding again or when someone inflicts one in the same spot." She looked at the Kitsuki and nodded."You see to keep the balance of the elements many forget about the interconnection between mind, body and soul. Ningen are more than the 5 elements."

"We must use each of our senses to truly see." he responded.

"Hai... not many can see..." She started to explain. "The idea that one can lose the battle when they start to create that knot. A knot that later on can hinder the work of others. It takes the soul of the individual and close it. This gives the mind time to wander and wonder on what if... Slowly the body decay... Releasing the soul slowly by untying..." The Kaito placed her hand on her mouth realizing she was rambling. "I am sorry Dragon sama... " The priestess nervously giggled. "I am rambling... I apologize."

He shook his head again. "I find it all fascinating. Besides, I can talk much in the same way when I consider a mystery."

"Then I hope that one day you can do such ramblings to this one." The girl smiled. "I think I should be heading back to the inn."

"I hope for the opportunity." he returned the smile. "Thank you, for sharing your time with me."
