"They did not seem upset at our arrival. They were very hushed, yes. Only Kohakuren-sama spoke to us, and she acted oddly," Abe perches on top of a nearby stack of supplies and scratches his ears.

One of your ships has left. The build master tells you it was to send word of arrival back to Leazus, and possibly accept more people and any reinforcements. He is confirming your build orders with you one final time before getting to work over the next month.

Ikiruhe Dajan

Once satisfied that he has obscured their trail, Dajan moves back into the rapidly growing camp and makes his way the rest of the group. "I have done my best to prevent the residents of the village from following our trail here, however I suspect that the location of our landing will be known to all here soon enough. It is a fair sized town, with several thousand inhabitants, so if they want to find us they will."

He turns to Su-Lin and continues. "I can escort Kazimasu-san to visit his kinfolk if you wish. Alternatively I can also travel to one of the other nearby villages to see what I can observe. There is little chance of them being able to follow me back to here, short of magical means."

[Morithias]

Over the next month the build order is completed. Do anything you wish to do in the next month, remember you must spend 1 week doing your jobs.

[shugyosha]

Su-Lin

After hearing the other's speak she says, "We don't have enough information about what is going on here. I would like to see the Waterfolk village. It is only three days travel. Hopefully we can meet them and find out more about this land."

Abe Hiroki

"This one agrees that learning more about this land is a good idea, but maybe we should worry about local dangers first?"

Abe will spend the next month helping to gather supplies and training any guards or soldiers if nothing else comes up that needs his attention. He will spend the time in his hybrid form, taking advantage of it's strength and agility.

[shugyosha]

Su-Lin

"Okay, so who wants to go with me to the Waterfolk village?"

[Princess]

"I believe such nuances should be dealt with by their respective experts. Any suggestions for increasing the security of our camp from those with experience in these matters?" Mingmei asks, looking at the strongest and woodsiest of her companions.

"This one has always found walls and high points to be useful," Abe offers, "And he recalls a time when a clever bunch of roguish kensai had a shaman enchant the wood they built their walls with to sprout thorny vines that attacked me as I tried to scale the walls."

[Ruik]

Ikiruhe Dajan

"I will gladly accompany you to the villages, for I wish to explore this new land more thoroughly, and to see more of its people." He looks thoughtfully at the hive of activity at the waterfront before continuing. "A wall to protect the people, especially at night would be both practical and provide peace of mind. However any such simple obstacle will require guards to make it effective."

[Morrolan]

Kazimasu Kenjiro

"We should start building relations with the native people of this land, for information and future trading agreements. If Su-Lin-sama and myself are to visit one of the nearby villages each, perhaps an envoy should be sent to the third, the spiritfolk village. "
Kejiro looks up at the clouds for a moment, and continues:
"I also suggest we request my kinsfolk in the nearby village to send a message on our behalf to the ruler of these lands. It is.. uncourteous and could be considered an insult if we don't formally greet the emporer ourselves. "

[shugyosha]

Su-Lin

"We'll leave instructions for the captain of the guard to set a perimeter watch," she assures Jiang Mingmei.

"It is too early to consider building walls," she counters Abe's words.

"I gladly accept your company Ikiruhe Dajan. Is there anyone else who would like to come?"

"I am sure an envoy will be sent post haste to us. The emperor already knows we arrived and most likely knows where we are. I would like to know more about this Lord before we make an official greeting."

[TechnoScrabble]

Abe Hiroki

"This one will go wherever he is needed," Abe says, bowing his head in deference to his fellows.

[Princess]

"Until we know more about this emperor, it would indeed be impossible to know how to properly address him. But I believe we should strive to do this as soon as possible, and leave the other meetings until after we have secured some sort of acceptance or permission from him, lest we be met with reprisals for any perceived attempt to undermine or contradict his authority. It would be best if all of our top figureheads were to do this together, to assure him we mean no disrespect."

[shugyosha]

Su-Lin

"Let's go see this Riverfolk village and get more answers."

[Morithias]

Su-Lin

"Let's go see this Riverfolk village and get more answers."

Is that an official declaration of an action?

[shugyosha]

yes it is... she's being queenly

[Morithias]

yes it is... she's being queenly

You go through the forest without any real trouble. It takes a few day but you come to a beautiful lake surrounded by houses. You look into the lake and are surprised. You can almost see the bottom! This lake looks like pure water with nothing else in it! You notice in the middle of the lake and see a large device in the middle, it appears to be purifying the water. There are a bunch of Undine young adult women sitting on the side of lake, all wearing the same clothes. You notice all of them are quite beautiful.

"So we're getting sent to the capital. I'm going to miss this place." one comments.

"but it's the CAPITAL this is the chance of a lifetime! Only the best of the best get sent there!"

"But why us? We're untrained youths. Shouldn't they send the ones who actually know what they're doing?"

"Shhh! Don't question the system! You want to get in trouble?"

Then all look at each other and continue their talk about what they think the capital will be like.
