For those who have been learning taijutsu, ninjutsu, and genjutsu, I may need to put lessons on hold temporarily. I've been having... memory lapses and apologize to those who may have come to the dojo and waited for nothing.
I will pick up lessons and take on any interested new students once I feel more like myself.

Unrelated: if I'm understanding the timeline correctly, those of us who have been here the longest would be coming up around a year in this place. Given the influences of the moons and seasons leaving the possibility for repetition, what sort of things were happening this time last year?

The Hyuuga Clan has a taijutsu that is unique to their clan where they can strike an opponent at speeds nearly impossible to track and cut off the chakra supply to their enemy. And the Yamanaka clan can convert their consciousness into spiritual chakra and then use it to take over the mind of an enemy, or to send silent communications to large groups all at one time. Both of those are kekkei genkai and impossible to learn, which may be why I was envious of them.
