"Think of your fire as a part of your body," she said, her voice calm but commanding.
I raised an eyebrow. "Really? I thought it just… you know, comes out and burns stuff," I replied, my tone laced with genuine surprise.

"Okay, so what should I do?" I asked, genuinely intrigued.
"Start by feeling it. Your Kai is more than just energy; it's alive. It flows through you. You need to connect with it like it's a part of you," she explained.
