"Isn't that much to tell, honestly. Mostly just a family affair. We were our own monastery, for the most part. My brothers, our Father, an' me. We trained in the day time. Mostly hand to hand combat at first, then as we got older there was weapons work. Schoolin' in between. Just a different branch of Shang called Ninjitsu."
