Faedric was running Toku through an exercise of firebending while constantly moving through stances. Toku struggled to keep with the pace without missing most of the steps, but he kept trying. Being able to draw on much power while stationary was impressive. But doing so while in motion was far more difficult, yet totally necessary for much of firebending's practical use. It was a lesson in control and consistency, Faedric having decided that those were the current highest priorities.

Jael, on the other hand, was doing his best to maintain his composure. He was also trying his best not to give praises to the fire sage sitting right next to him, since she'd told him not to. He was honored enough to be in the presence of one Fire Sage. But for another to directly approach him; Jael had big plans for the future, but he hadn't quite conceptualized yet that he'd be standing side by side with the greatest people in the world.

She'd said he was important? That he was learned? He'd come across well; it was a very good feeling to know that. He'd need to not disappoint then.

Jael took a breath to collect himself. "Fire Sage Suie, it was the Avatar, my friend, who destroyed the wall. Fire Sage Faedric told him to bend as much fire as possible, and gave a rousing speech to motivate him. On just Toku's second try, he created more fire at once than I've ever seen one person create."

That was straightforward. Talking about himself was more...subjective. What should he say? "...I am Jael, son of minister Saizei and her husband Naizer, a merchant. I have spent my 16 years being taught the traditional classes by teachers that I found to be exceptional. My mandatory learning ends shortly and I feel that I have some measure of worth to offer the avatar on his travels. I have known him for several years and so he asked for my support."

Was that everything? Did he miss any important details, or would it be rude to drag things out? He should probably just finish. "I hope I have said enough to help your curiosity, Fire Sage Suie. Is there anything else you'd like to know?" He instinctively tried to bow before remembering to stop himself.
