[@Thayr] I got a lot of questions here. Why is the Dai Li taking your family? Why are they hunting you? How does a character with little training hold of a squad of Earth Kingdom soldiers? And I'm not gunna lie - friendship issues always make me nervous in rps. There is going to be a lot of character on character time; how do you feel like you are going to get around this roadblock yourselves set yourself?

- Dai Li took the family because they asked questions pursuant to the kidnapping of retired Earth Kingdom soldiers who were more in line with the King Xiong era and had made it known. In making noise, asking questions, they were undermining the Dai Li status quo and thus were removed.
- They are hunting Tomo because of the familial connection and suspicions that she is connected to those retired Earth Kingdom soldiers and, thus, is a dissident who requires removal.
- Because she was fighting a squad who were also exceptionally untrained - essentially conscripts. This combined with a stark difference in goals, survival versus capture, would allow Tomo to apply far more force/aggression compared to the Earth Kingdom squad and so allow her to fend them off until the rebel patrol arrived.
- Likely yes. I imagine at one point or another Tomo, or someone else, will be injured and thus will require caring for. I also imagine that, after a few combats, there will be far more trust. It's those little things that gradually move towards trust and friendship.
