"I...." She seemed speechless.
She thought out long and hard.
"What did those plants ever do to you? I understand you tried to save them, but you let some burn to the ground."

[i]"Sit."[/i] [b]She said simply as the flame ring fell back to the ember ring, as she herself sat down cross-legged, lowering her hood as the heat almost entirely dispersed, becoming much more tolerable and not face scalding. Her face was slightly angular, with roughly cut short black hair. Nothing special, she looked perfectly human. [/b]

She sat down, sighing.
-
[i]"First lesson of the flame. The world goes on with, or without you. Your actions should never prevent this flow. Second lesson, the flow is self-destructive. Restrict it, but never prevent it. What do these rules tell you?"[/i]
-
"I do not follow rules of flame. I follow rules of vegetation." Her voice was soft and quiet, "And one of which is to return."
-
[i]"You're not following me, so I guess I'll tell you what they mean. The world will move on without you. This is the flow. The natural progression. Things happen wether or not you do anything. You can affect the flow, but to go against it is to challenge the world itself. To block it is a crime against everything. The flow, however, is self destructive. The world yearns for balance and equilibrium. This often means it is self-destructive. Forest fires, earthquakes, meteor impacts. They all seek to render everything down to pure and total anarchy, perfect equilibrium. This is not good for us, however, so we must retain control over the flow. Guide it gently away from the dangerous things while still staying on the proper path."[/i] [b]She gestures around[/b] [i]"Destruction is often part of the proper path."[/i]
-
".....Oh...." Her Ghost intervened, "She loves nature. She doesn't like it being destroyed."
-
[i]"This IS nature. Death, destruction, entropy, it's all natural. The lion survives on the death of the prey, the grass survives on the death of the lion, the prey survive on the death of the grass."[/i]

Kali seemed unhappy. She stood up, and walked away.
-
[i]"If you can't cope with the world and how it works, then be my guest. But don't deny it."[/i]
