Kiri

Kiri in 1171 was a slender Crab girl who had only two years left until her gempukku. She was being tought in the ways of Tao by Togashi Shiori. Kiri believed Shiori was a bad teacher, and catalogued the Tattooed Monk's faults, which started with her insistence on teaching abstruse theories that could not possibly have any bearing on reality, continued with the futility of meditations on firelight, and ended just short of an accusation of heterodox thinking. Shiori saw Kiri as a most excellent student, who she encouraged by her capacity for independent thought.
