She couldn't identify what kind of force acted upon her, magnetic, gravitational, "spirit energy", or otherwise, so there was no way to counter it. In her original body, there were anti-magnetic devices to counteract fields of that source, but there appeared to be no mechanism to counteract such things in her now. This golem's belief was that it was "spirit energy", though, and that was enough of an answer. When she learned more about what spirit energy was, then she could exact her revenge. It was true there wasn't a device on his frame that appeared to generate the force she experienced, but there was still a mechanism behind it all; in other words, there was a process she didn't yet understand, but would come to understand. Ayako got up against the pain which now overwhelmed her entire frame, as the after effect of the damage still weighed upon her. Whatever Yang had done had compounded over the beating she received from the other golems. She couldn't see from the eye that completely cracked under the force. Her frame felt brittle though it was made out of a strong metal; any more pressure and she would have expected the metal frame itself to crack under the vice grip.
She eventually caught up with Yang, and into the library. The grandness of it didn't impress her, and neither did the collection of musty tomes arraying the long walls. It looked like the very picture of inefficiency with no mode of central control. How was anyone supposed to learn as they waded through a mountain of paper? Clearly having information digitized in her age was the better method to organize information. Was there any organization to this place at all? She remembered there was one a thing called the Dewey Decimal system, but it had been obsoleted with the age of computer database organization. Her 'mentor' stated that everything she needed to know was in this library. Problem - even if it was true everything she needed to know was in this library, how could she separate that from things she didn't need to know? Her current motive was to defeat her new mentor, and not in the pure search for knowledge. In her mind, she refused the phenomenon of 'spirit energy' to be anything besides something that could be reduced to what she already knew. As soon as she learned the relationship, then this time period would once again be subservient to her wrath.
"Where may I begin?" she asked. Her mentor wanted respect, so she'd give it, for a time. At least then, her mentor would believe that his demonstration of power had instilled some fear into her.
