Gifted Boys and War Orphans

Yasuo showed extraordinary talent in the dojo, and received the attention of the last wind master, the elder Soma. But Yasuo was too arrogant to listen to his teachings. Yone begged his younger brother to let go of his arrogant attitude and gave him a maple seed (the seed was also given to his apprentice Thalia by Yasuo), This is the dojo's supreme commandment on humility. The next morning, Yasuo became Souma's apprentice and also served as his personal bodyguard.
