She walked in quite excited no doubt. She was bursting at he seems and doing her ever loving best to keep propriety when entering the Blood territory training facility. Full of people, onlookers, by this point it was possible everyone would know this boy and he was free to come and go and no one questioned the Prince's presence. So who was Dime to so boldly approach without invitation? A woman with a job to do and a promise to fulfill, that's who.
She had the biggest whitest smile she could accomplish. "Your highness... I absolutely must have a word if you have a moment."

Drake sighed long and hard as he lowered the weights back onto the bar and sat up.
"Still with this 'your highness' shit... fuck."
Hed run a hand through his hair and take a slow breath.
"What is it?"

Acknowledging her presence he might have noticed she cut her hair short and as usual she dressed it in gold ornate beads. At least this was Dime's new usual. Her hair black and a straight was hovering over shoulder length and with bangs. A very clean and professional look as she started her journey of her own resource and certainly felt his easier to care for.
"Yes, as long as we remain in the eye of the public it is only formal and expected." She regrettably had to displease him on this matter. "A thought occured to me no doubt. About the strength you sought." She took a deep breath.
"This might depend on the King's permission, but I would like to take you to the most concentrated place of power within this Territory. Your Father draws on the land and it flows for him like it is his own blood. Your blood might also have this access, it is possibly even your birth right by blood. It might heal your wounds, give you a connection or even just speak to you, the blood and souls of your Father's onslaught lay dormant as the life of the land and quelled under his control... I am not sure exactly what but the possibilities could be absolutely anything. For the power you seek might as well start from the roots... Your roots."
She was proud to have thought about it. She played the words in her head the whole way here since she woke this morning. It made perfect sense to her... Honestly she really needed a win right about now.

Drake checked out this new look. He wondered what inspired this change. But she seemed eager to discuss other matters, he will have to check on that line of questioning later. For now he would stare at her curious.
"Interesting idea for sure. True, his same blood runs in my veins. And I won't lie even I can feel the power if the blood beneath us in this territory... I like what you're getting at."
He smiled at the possibilities and proceeded to get lost in thought.

"It is well known that deep within the castle, is pretty much the center of the King's power..." She paused and bit her lip pondering the thought. "I am unsure of your relationship with him after all that has happened but if we are granted permission I am certain this can make the attunement easier for that power you feel will be never more obvious. Possibly a space closest to the land, as in the lowest and ever the most center of the castle floors." she felt she was almost guessing by this point judging by an understanding of how Qi flows and even if a lesser understanding of how the King's power worked.

Drake folded his arms and contemplated what she had to say.
"If my goal was the source of my fathers power... you would be correct. However, MY power isn't based in blood but rather souls..."
He would say this looking around seeing the abundance of soul energy. Throughout the land.
"Tell me... you said my father conquered this land, yes? Does that mean a lot of death occured here?"

She nodded in agreement to his question. "The amount of death veries between stories, but no doubt the truth is there was so much death from his wrath that all the Qi from their lives and his came to make a scar upon the land. Most refuse to live in Qi-Scars, we use it to our advantage at thrive in it. With our King having power over it, it is a land made him and for us loyal to him. The souls of the blood spilled are still here no doubt."

He smiled and clapped his hands.
"Excellent. Do you know the site of the the largest battle he had here?"

"You want to head to a Battlefield and not the Castle?" She would ask.

Drake nodded.
"I have an idea. And one that will not put me in my fathers path, which is preferable."

She gave it a bit of thought putting a hand on her hip and another one to touch her chin trying to think of the best place. "I suppose that does make sense... then if that is your will I believe I have a place in mind. You have time now?"

Drake would get up and slip on his jacket.
"What are we waiting for?"

She chuckled and would lead the way. "You healed up nicely from what I can tell. Seeing you in here after what you went through surprises me a bit."

"As much as I'm loathe to admit it. Having my fathers blood in my system does help speed up the healing process. Not as quickly as his seems to be... but still. Why do you say it's strange to see me here though?"

"After the injuries you sustained I expected there would be some rehabilitation. Legs are hard to mend and even once healed the pain remains for a while since even your nerves are severed and the bone is fragile. But as you said with your Father's blood it makes sense you are able and eager to surpass him." She nodded in agreement. "Honestly I am not in a place to question the King but I sure wonder what he is thinking. More so I wonder what my role in his plans are..." She was almost thinking out loud as they exited the training field, she needed to choose her words carefully but certainly, she had a tear in her choices that brewed storms in her very soul.
