"I suppose I should also give my own introduction, being that it was my own words that encouraged such things." She paused, lifting her own cup to her lips for the first time, determining that it was likely safe at that point The tea held a cloying sweetness beneath the sharp taste of the peppermint, likely strengthened by the fact that it had cooled and thickened to a still thin, but slightly syrupy substance. She licked a bit of it from her lips as she set the cup back down. She took the sign that she was not currently drugged or dying from it as a good one and continued with the same cool, dry tone she had held thus far, "Sonam. I joined the Jasmine Dragon almost a year ago and have spent my time under the care of my Master, Hua Xian. He received the letter and sent me as part of my penance." She did not expand on the statement any farther, but instead looked around at the others gathered- aside from Victor- expectantly. Of course, they were free to hold their silence all they wanted. It wasn't particularly her concern. Introductions were simply a logical and productive way to wait for their host without sitting around staring in silence like children in a zoo. She crossed her legs and picked up her tea cup once again, almost wishing she'd left it be and drank it warm, but still enjoying it's taste.
