The Deft Hands of the Valley (Patreon)
Content
Below Pandorica, in the Ponya Valley, live the Great Panda's of Ponya. These mostly peaceful kinlings live in various villages and temples, and are practitioners of the old ways.
The Great Panda's believe in balance of the flow. They believe that Mana is the life blood of the world and that all creatures are born of Mana. That each person is a world in themselves, flowing with qi, Mana enriched by the living spirit.
The Great Panda's believe that living a balanced and just life causes their qi to grow powerful and strong, so that when a person passes, their qi can enrich the flow of Mana and help perpetuate the life of the planet.
As such, most Great Panda's practice the art of the Deft Hand; the ability to manipulate and control their own qi and impose it's will upon the world. Deft Hand practitioners do not dane to subvert or control the flow of Mana. Instead they work within the flow, interacting with mana in order to keep balance.
It is said that mysterious Keepers are welcomed openly in the Pandorican Valleys, where there knowledge and mission is accepted by it's people.
