Dojo of the Nightblades

You are standing within the Nightblades' Dojo. The floors are polished
hardwood and the walls are paper screens. A weapon display lines the east
wall, a seating area to the south and a strange indoor garden lies to the west.

Look NORTH:
A simple sliding door is the entryway to the Dojo.

Look EAST:
Assorted weapons line the east wall, most predominately a beautifully
presented katana.

Look SOUTH:
A tasseled cushion is on a dais against the south wall. Various other
cushions are scatted on the floor below it. It is presumably an area for
members to talk with each other.

Look WEST:
The west wing opens up to a huge garden. A small soothing waterfall cascades
down from a steam deep within the garden. A leather bound book lies open upon
the rocks.

Look UP:
Perched upon the rafters is a strange little hawk.

Look DOWN:
Wooden floors. Feels nice.

Look HAWK:
Its feathers are pure-white in colour. A faint dark purple aura surrounds its
body. It watches you closely.... watching you like a.. er.. hawk.

Look KATANA:
The metal is polished to near flawlessness. The handle is made of wood,
painted black, carved in a simple design more practicle than for show. A
small note underneath reads:
"The sword Whitehawk used in his last days as a mortal."

Look BOOK:
The book is full of text and diagrams; skimming through it you find an
important passage.

...after enough experience a member might have bonded with their totem animal
that collaborates with their own spirit. Most likely this animal is one that
follows their attitude and natural behaviour.

Whilst this behaviour only slightly accents them at rest, an attack on them or
the following is enough to release the total spirit within them. Once
unleashed, they become very unpredictable, their instincts are focused
onto destroying those who attacked...
