CHAPTER THIRTEEN

DIRISHA WENT TO see Mayli Wu. She found the woman she'd first known as Sister Clamp sitting nude, legs locked in lotus and eyes closed, on a cushion in the meditation chamber. Although Wu was naked, she wore her spetsdods, and Dirisha felt the other woman's awareness as she slipped into the room. There had been other times when she had known that kind of energy exchange, as another's ki flowed and meshed with her own. If she tried to shoot the meditating woman now, Dirisha knew she would be shot at the same instant. That sense of zanshin was part of what Flex players craved, part of what the Arts were supposed to give when enlightenment was reached. In all her years of training, Dirisha had known the feeling only a few times, and then only fleetingly. A true Master was supposed to live there.

Strange that she should feel it now.

Dirisha sat on her heels, and waited.

After ten minutes, Mayli Wu opened her eyes. She smiled. "Sister. How may I serve you?"

Dirisha said, "I need some answers."

"Of course." Wu unknotted her legs and stretched them in front of herself.

She bent at the waist and touched her toes, then straightened. She drew her feet up, knees gaping slightly, and clasped her arms around her legs. "Ask."

"Why did you give up being a medic to become a trull?"

"To learn about love."

Dirisha shook her head. "I was in that business, when I was young. What I learned about was lust, and selfishness."

"You weren't looking in the right direction."
