> Why do you keep insisting on picking on these havenworlders? Do my students need to kick your tail a second time? -- Anon Guest

Master Twii tended to keep their dojos in the Edge Territories. It was where they were needed most. It was where one could easily find cogniscents 'proving' their strength by beating up smaller and weaker ones.

To Master Twii, it only proved that they wasted their strength on bullying. To Master Twii, people like that needed some kharmic realignment.

Of course, it couldn't be the _master_ that taught bullies a short, sharp lesson in manners. It had to be their former victims. So they started teaching. Simple lessons. How to fall without being hurt. How to regain solid footing. How to stand to reduce being toppled.

How to use the enemy's impetus against them.

It was a dojo hidden in whispers. In helpful advice. In gossip and rumour. _Having trouble? Look for this place. Ask for Twii. They will help you._

It took two months before the first bully got a short, sharp shock.

Thrown by a would-be victim into a display of sticky syrup.

"You just got your ass handed to you by a weak little feather duster," crowed the Havenworlder, vigorously shedding feathers at her former bully. "Tarred and feathered! Like a _real_ villain."

Twii would also have to add lessons in humility for their students.
