<span class="mu-i">"There are a few more things."</span>
Kasen began to give you a more in depth explanation about what Hermit arts she could impart to a beginner.
<span class="mu-s">Geomancy Feng Shui</span>
<span class="mu-b">The ability to attune to the surroundings and manipulate them. A basic Hermit art.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Aura Sense</span>
<span class="mu-b">The ability to detect positve and negative energy, useful for finding human or Youkai life, but not always guaranteed to work with stronger Youkai, but it can also allow one to translate to or communicate with animals and feral Youkai.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Senkai Feng Shui</span>
<span class="mu-b">The ability to fold space to change distance or travel to Kasen's slice of Senkai, mastery of this Feng Shui will allow one to eventually create their own Senkai and hide it away in a pocket reality.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Mystical Energy</span>
<span class="mu-b">The ability to meditate on and focus mystically awakened energies for a variety of applications, such as creating light, walking on water, breathing underwater, and sensing movements even as far as a mile away as Kasen suggests you prefer the 'cognition' of the present than the future.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Peak of Humanity Strength (Phase 1)</span>
<span class="mu-b">Subjection to intense training with Qi and the Oni routine will allow one to improve their agility, speed, reflexes and physical strength continually, though the training is punishing the Hermit who practices this will eventually be able to make their body harder than steel.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Martial Arts Mastery (Phase 1)</span>
<span class="mu-b">Subjection to techniques imparted by Kasen will allow one to learn how to fight beyond the mere brutal applications of the bare knuckles.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Therapy Feng Shui</span>
<span class="mu-b">Coats the fingers or fists in an emotional energy harvested from the fields of ones own geographical soul, allowing them to inflict emotions or passivity.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Timely Healing</span>
<span class="mu-b">The ability to heal wounds or regenerate cells by basking in rainwater, moonlight or the morning sun, which while slower than arcane healing has the bonus of healing spiritual damage than just physical.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Talisman Forefathering</span>
<span class="mu-b">The ability to create spiritual talismans from prayer that can exorcise Youkai energy, or grow a plant with secretions that can heal physical and spiritual wounds nearly instantly, which comparatively takes longer than Timely Healing but this skill is mutually exclusive with Timely Healing.</span>
<span class="mu-i">"If your religion already has exorcism methods in regards to the spiritual, then you can seamlessly incorporate them, I'm willing to bet. Though Feng Shui is a concept born in ancient China, it shouldn't likewise be considered heretical by a religion denouncing magic. Feng Shui in actuality is simply energy, and energy is everywhere, in everything. And I'd think denouncing energy would be pretty silly to begin with, now wouldn't it?"</span>
