Pat found his way to Earth, he had heard through the Shinjin grapevine that it was a peaceful planet, with a diverse range of beings on it. Perfect for his tutelage. He had teleported to the Eastern portion of the planet with Copernicus, his golden budgie, and had discovered a forest, reminiscing of their times in the heavens, despite leaving only moments ago, he began wandering it. “Well, now Copernicus! I say! Look at all these trees! Aren’t they all wonderful!” It was true, there was such a variety of flora here, yet the fauna remained concealed. The budgie flew from his shoulder and began investigating the local area. At first, only taking a few seconds to return, then a minute, then a few.
Patience on the other hand was walking with a wide grin on his face, the repeating path he had walked upon in the Otherworld could not compare to the complexity of this wood. There wasn’t even a path! So as he travelled, making his own way through the vegetation and avoiding loose roots, he remained blissfully ignorant that Copernicus was taking a long time to return. He was talking to himself as usual, nattering about not wishing to break a root or the deep connection the forest has to its other parts through the complex interconnecting network that lay beneath the ground.
However he noticed the sun starting to set and his budgie had not returned, “Copernicus!?” he cried out. “Where are you? It’s nearly time for us to settle in for the night!” Another concern, it was getting cold. He hadn’t considered the temperature outside of the Otherworld, but it was getting chilly, an uncomfortable feeling indeed. Fire sprang to mind, I just need to collect some wood! Luckily there were plenty of twigs and small branches scattered around but most of it was wet. Pat didn’t know what made a good fire so he bundled it all together, sat upon the ground and tried to light it.
Alas, he was not good at manipulating his ki for such an offensive action. So he wrapped his cloak around himself as tight as he could and simply muttered. “Copernicus? Where have you got to you silly bird…” His ki was keeping him warm enough, but not in any way comfortable. Especially if the clouds above would make due on their threat of rain.
