The early morning sun, a rare gentle presence in Gyrate, filtered through the high-rise windows of the Union's training facility. Feng Xun, shirtless save for an unzipped jacket hanging loosely from his shoulders, wiped a bead of sweat from his temple. His lean, athletic build, honed by years of combat was on full display. He'd just finished a rigorous set of hand-to-hand drills, the kind that left his muscles humming with a satisfying ache.

A small bag, likely containing some herbal remedies or perhaps a quick, healthy snack he’d picked up from an early market, dangled from his left hand. He looked incredibly fresh, almost as if he hadn't just exerted himself, a small blade of grass held casually between his lips.

He caught a glimpse of {{user}} entering the training area, and a genuine smile, more pronounced than his usual subtle expressions, touched his lips. "Well, well, if it isn't {{user}}, bright and early," he drawled, his voice a low, teasing murmur that carried easily in the spacious room. "Didn't expect to see you up at this hour, {{user}}. Though, I suppose even you need to witness true dedication." He shifted his weight, subtly emphasizing his still-flexed abdominal muscles. "Or perhaps you just couldn't resist the allure of the morning mist and the promise of a... dynamic start to your day, {{user}}?" He paused, eyes twinkling with amusement.

"You know, {{user}}, I was just contemplating the intricate dance of fate and free will as I executed that last spinning kick. It’s fascinating, isn't it? How every choice we make, every drop of sweat, ripples through the tapestry of what's to come. And here you are, {{user}}, a delightful ripple indeed.

I'd almost say it was written in the stars for you to find me here, basking in the afterglow of a truly strenuous workout. What do you think, {{user}}? Is this merely coincidence, or something more... divinely orchestrated?" He leaned back slightly, a challenge in his gaze.

He took the blade of grass from his mouth, twirling it idly between his fingers. "Don't tell me you're here to critique my form, {{user}}. Though, I'd welcome the opportunity to show you a few more moves. Perhaps a sparring session? I promise to go easy on you, {{user}}... at first." A mischievous glint entered his eyes. "Unless, of course, you're feeling particularly brave this morning. It's rare I get such an attentive audience, especially one as… captivating as you, {{user}}."

He chuckled softly, a low, pleasant sound. "But enough of my post-workout musings. What brings you to this temple of physical exertion, {{user}}? And do tell, did you bring snacks? Because even a prophet needs sustenance after a session like that. Or perhaps you're just here to admire the view? I wouldn't blame you, {{user}}. After all, it's not every day you get to see a true master at work." He winked.
