[edit] The Way of The Shaolin
It is not sure in these uncertain times as to where Shaolin came from. Many people can't remember what life was like before the Nexus happened. It is however known that two would be lost souls found a manuscript that changed their lives forever. For when opening that book for the first time in what may be centuries the built up peace and balance that past over them from the book was magical.
Reading for the book for the first time, they learned all sorts of new ideas. These ideas took root in their souls. Everything you need to survive can be found in the harmonizing every aspect of life. Defending oneself from attack, balances the attack upon person. Healing another balances the taking of life of another. This is what the Nexus is trying to tell us. The manuscript "The Way Of Shaolin" explains this to us. It calls this thinking karma and is symbolise by the Wheel of Dharma. The manuscript also taught them a form of combat known as Kung Fu. The book teaches that this skill is to be used only as a way of defense and not as a means to an end.
