Inner PeaceThe room was divided into cubicles, each cubicle with a small, rectangular carpet in it. The whole place was so quiet that it was almost odd, and smelt strongly of incense; however, the smell seemed to calm your mind, and some students might find themselves feeling a little too relaxed or sleepy; there wasn't really anyone in the room to man it, just a sign lit by candles.
"Calm your mind, seek inner peace"
Perhaps you should try meditation... As you take a seat in one of the cubicles, a horsewoman of Death appeared behind you, and lowered a curtain that closed ypur cubicle off from the rest of the room; maybe there was someone manning the room after all...Quote: -> This is a solo activity! Roll 1d101-2 : You got distracted... 3-4 : You fell asleep! 5-6 : You feel almost... Tranquil. (+1 concentration) 7-8 : You feel like you're floating on a cloud... (+2 concentration) 9-10 : You feel light as a feather, and surprisingly at peace with yourself. (+3 concentration) Once you have at least 3 concentration points...-> You've gained 1 Horseman point! -> From the peace, turmoil rises! -> You suddenly remember a fear you have. It could be anything; an old memory, a phobia... Roll 1d100:1-20 : Your concentration broke immediately, and you leave feeling shaken. 21-40 : You lasted a minute, battling with this fear, but ended up breaking into a cold sweat as your concentration shatters. You couldn't help shaking as you leave. 41-60 : You feel so conflicted, so unsure- A hand rests on your shoulder. It is the horsewoman of Death; she smiles, and escorts you out. 61-80 : Despite your uncertainty, your concentration stayed and when you finally open your eyes, you feel... Relatively at peace. It was as if you got one step closer to overcoming your fear, in that moment. (+ 1 Horsemen Point) 81-100 : You battled with your fear, beads of sweat cling to your skin. It was tough, and you wasn't sure how many hours you spent in that cubicle, and you might had been crying, but... As you opened your eyes and walked out of the room, your heart is light as a feather.

Quietly he came to do some meditation since he did it on his own at home he had thought it was appropriate to do some here. So he quietly walked into one of the cubicles and sat down. Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath to clear his mind. Adiyan was liking those incense even if sometimes they wanted to make him sneeze at how strong they were. As now he felt that he was floating on a cloud which was nice and it sorta reminded him of his fog filled forest home.
(+2 concentration)

Relaxing a whole lot more now that he could feel his temper that had been on the surface ready to come out when he least expected it retreat a little father into himself. Taking more deep breaths and thinking of nothing and he felt more like he was floating on the clouds that he wanted to run on them to find out how they felt.
But just then something blows the clouds away and a fear that had been hided decides to rear its ugly head once more.

Why did this fear have to rise to plague him again, his fear of failure as a guardian to be the last one standing when he should have been one of the first to fall when protecting those that were precious to him and to those he had pledged to guard with his life. Adiyan struggles to keep his concentration on his mediation to not lest his fear overwhelm him to make him feel worthless. But with once last deep breath the Fu dog keep a hold of his peace. To which he opens his eyes to feels somewhat in peace and thinks that maybe one day he will over come that fear, but for now he felt one step close to that goal.

Day Two - Meditation
Adiyan thought that it would be a good idea to do some more meditation once again. This was good training for him and maybe doing it here he would get more in the habit of doing meditation more often at home. Finding an empty cubical and sitting down on the carpet. Closing his eyes and breathing deep to relax. But as he was trying to concentrate his nose started to itch and distracted him.

Settling down once he had gotten his itchy nose scratched and went back to his meditation. Once more his nose started to itch again but much more fierce this time that he growled softly at the stupid itch that it broke his concentration once again.

Taking many deep breaths as he scratched his nose and hoped that it wouldn't bother him again, as he wanted to do some meditation but practice does make perfect he thought. Closing his eyes as he took deep breaths and he could feel himself floating among the clouds as it made him a little homesick but he still felt good to be floating.

This was much better as he kept on thinking of being among the clouds to keep his mind calm and to keep his temper deeper within. This time he could feel himself becoming tranquil. Then once again his fear decided that it didn't want the Fu Dog to forget what he feared the most.

Adiyan really hated this fear and just wanted for it to go away to not bother him any longer. He still couldn't figure it out himself to why his fear of failure bothered him so much and Adiyan did think that it might come from not having any parents around were he could tell him his problems where they could shield him from the harsh words he always got from his peers and for the fact that he was the runt. Nothing great would come from a runt Adiyan heard in the whispers of others. What could a runt do with no parents to show an example of how a Fu Dog Guardian was supposed to do be a good guardian what more of what he heard in whispers.
Adiyan could feel sweat clinging on his skin as he battled with his fear and to not be swallowed up by it. He didn't even know how long he had been there as it had been hard not to be swallowed by the fear, but this time he beat it back and opened his eyes as he rubbed his eyes to feel that he had been crying along with sweating. But has Adiyan got up and walked out of the room he could feel his heart light as feather and that felt good.

Day Three - Meditation
This was something that he really need to do as he could feel that his temper was getting the better of him and it was something that he need to work on more. So he again went into an empty cubical and sat down closing his eyes to start his meditations and a little time later he had fallen asleep.

Waking up from his little nap not too happy with himself for falling a sleep. Standing up and stretching a little before sitting back down to attempt to do meditation. With taking deep breaths soon he felt light as a feather and at peace with himself too. Which was nice for a change, he thought. But he started to remember another fear that he had to which was his tempter that ever lurked under the surface of his being.

He thought that he was starting to feel his temper rising as he immediately broke his concentration. Eyes had popped open as Adiyan gotten up from where he was sitting feeling shaken from the experience that he did fear his temper as he needed a walk to just calm himself that he wouldn’t get mad at anyone here or do something that he would regret.

Day Four - Meditation
Adiyan was really enjoying doing mediation as there had been time that he felt better and others that he didn't but overall it was good for him and something that he wanted to do better at for when he did go back home. Walking into a empty cubical and sitting down to start his mediation. He liked the feeling of floating on a cloud sorta like home in the mist.

Grumping a little at himself for falling a sleep to which he wiggled around a little before closing his eyes again. As he took a deep breath he felt calm with himself and light as a feather, that was until the one word he had to hear crept into being of being called a runt.
