 Ja’shanji-da is as his flowers are. He is equal parts resilient yet flexible, entrancing yet subtle, timeless yet fleeting. He understands and acknowledges the ways of nature, having studied his craft thoroughly, and presumes to learn all that he can from it.
The more soft-spoken of his siblings, he does not fight and he does not quarrel. He instead leans to his craft to prevent from being caught up in such troubles. That’s not to say he is a coward. Far from it. This one has simply learned that life is too short to be spent in discord and disharmony. A lesson taught to him when he was younger, before he learned to ply his trade as a florist.
During his youth, Ja’shanji-da would have been considered brazen and fool-hardy. He knew- or so he believed- what was right and correct. He acted with little to no regard for the consequences. His strategic mind keen yet immature. Luck kept him abreast of any dire straits; however, it was but a matter of time. Soon enough, this one entered a scruple he discovered himself to be outmatched in. He came away badly injured, nearly lifeless. If not for his siblings, the tale of Ja’shanji-da may well have ended there.
He would recover in due time, fortunately, although he would always bear a reminder of his misguided bravado. Something else would also change- something within him. No longer was he the brash fool who considered himself unerring. Ja’shanji-da transformed into what is seen today. Weak by no means but pacifistic nonetheless. He would prefer to speak on equal terms in hopes of finding a resolution through words instead of force. As such, it is rare to see him angered or bothered. For this one to reach the point of rage takes a great deal, with few exceptions- mainly his family and his plants.
Ja’shanji-da looks to his flowers for peace of mind. They are what soothed his soul during his recovery those many moons ago. They were likewise the reason he retained his sanity as he watched his mother waste away due to that accursed Knahaten Flu. While he leaned on his surviving family for support and love, it was nature that showed him what it truly meant to be strong and supple. He realized how truly marvelous plants were, capable of surviving even in the harshest conditions while also spreading enjoyment and a sense of serenity. This one delved into the craft of florist with gusto thereafter.
His is more than a trade to ply. It is an expression of himself. A way to show others the beauty of nature while opening an avenue for discussion and comradery. Making coin is the added benefit. After all, this one is still Khajiit proud and true. Ja’shanji-da always treats his trades as he does his flowers- with time and care. Each individual who approaches him in trade is unique. The cultivation of the relationship must be done carefully. It requires effort, as all things worth receiving, and is to be nurtured and cherished.
This is the creed he now strives to uphold: Honor and embrace family. Protect those this one loves. Endeavor for peace instead of bloodshed, but do not mistake cowardice for pacifism. Remember that strife and peril are never far away and can strike at any moment. Do not let fear of death prevent from seeing the beauty in life. Make coin...lots of coin. |
