The Path Unending (A Cultivation Quest)

Probably a good idea to stick to what we know. And what we know is charms.

Gives us more information regarding the heart, plus looking at an official construct. Seems like a win win or me.
 
Being in a sect seems fairly similar to being a corporate slave, sect points seems like a direct parallel to company scrip.

May we rise above the shackles of crony capitalism.
 
"Kong Zhi," Elder Siani barks, voice interrupting the spiral you found yourself trapped in. "Overthinking things may indeed be part of your wondrous charm, but it is not needed in this case. Just… just say something." He spreads his arms widely, encompassing the room with one gesture. "Anything. I assure you, whatever you say, I shall find some flaw within it and find it eminently amusing."
I think this applies to the thread in general quite well too. :p
You stare at the clothing, confusion clouding your brain. What sect missions could possibly require such a variety of attire?
Costume party!
"Of course he didn't-" she mumbles, almost to herself.
And she's been with Elder Siani for how long?

I'd like to learn a bit more about what sort of missions we are likely to need to help prepare for, and what sort of preparation we are likely to be able to help with.

Why wouldn't I want to hang with the party chef? More seriously, I don't want to butt heads about our crafting style on day one, and I don't want to be messing with the highest ranked members if it's avoidable. Meng Cai (the woodworking tutor) was Fifth Circle and he kinda terrified us.

We dropped the charm crafting part of the Deeps (the guardian statue), so I want to take this one now.
 
I think one of our weaknesses is a lack of information, so one of the two info gathering tasks would help us to broaden our horizons. While Kumi is the obvious choice, learning more of a "target" would give us some information about how others are cultivating. I believe any sort of dossier on a cultivator would likely less us about their core, techniques, etc that could help us learn more about what we're missing.

I felt that awkwardness in my bones.

Not saying there's a target that we owe a bad turn at some point in the future

but there totally is

Found this story on royal road a few days ago, got caught up, and binged everything posted. Huuuuuge fan of this and I'm quite excited to try and be part of the journey from here on.

With regards to the decision, our current goals should be getting comfortable with what our new life in the eighth circle has for us. If we're going to have to be able to handle a wide range of things eventually, might as well start branching out with something as similar to charm-crafting to smooth the transition right away.

We spend a lot of time with charms already and I'd rather zhi learn more about things outside his wheelhouse

Ditched our story, now we annoy him into being our acquaintance!
