Cup 011: Iroh [Video]

[ginsengismyfave.livejournal.com]

[Iroh looks like he's in some store.  It's hard to tell, because it's somewhat dark.  Iroh looks rather winded and on high alert.]

Those creatures out there are dangerous.  I don't know if anyone else has dealt with them, but they don't go down without a fight.

[The camera angle shifts.  The shelves behind Iroh are filled with what looks like bricks and wheels of cheese.  A natural hiding place, it is.]

If anyone's out there, find somewhere to hide.  You shouldn't be out alone.

[Iroh crouches down to Dende's level and focuses on the flame in his hands.]

I'm not sure how such things work for you, but with Firebending, power comes from the breath. Breathe in, breathe out, and the fire moves with you.

[Iroh extends his hands, palms upward, and inhales slowly, then exhales.]

Let the warmth of the sun power you.

[Breathe in, breathe out. Embers pop to life in his open hand, then die out.]

[Dende closes his eye and takes in a deep breath. He tries to focus his ki into his hand trying to keep the warmth of the sun in mind and heeding Iroh's words to the best of his abilities, however, when he tries to manifest something in just sparks and becomes a weak ki-blast that quickly fizzes out]

Well, it seems that either I need more practice, or it's not something that possible in my world.

[he smiles with that awkward smile of his]

That might be the case. But I still encourage you to practice in whatever way you can and achieve your true potential.

[He puts a hand on Dende's shoulder.] Know, though, that such a thing will take a long time. There are things even I don't know. Those who give themselves the title of 'Master' are those who have the most to learn.
