"Not of the sort meant to hunt the unbeasts." Akeha shrugs.

Akeha nods seriously. "Then it is four Children of the Sun, one Moonchild, three-score samurai, and yourself if you would join us," she muses. "And it will have to be a coup de main, striking into the heart of the capital around Fang Deshi. Unless you have other thoughts, Lady Aaeiko? Your grace?" she looks between Wu and Lee.

"And Yi will not risk it?" Akeha presses a little, pursing her lips. "Do you know if any of your people are actively resisting the fae?"

Once a ways down the river and a bit inland, Akeha pauses with Rishi and Lee. "Can any of your remaining sisters be called to action?" she asks, straightforward and serious. "I have only a hundred samurai in all, and a mere fifty making their way to Wujian in the next few days to meet us."

"Of course, your Grace," Akeha switches to the one language she thinks they all share. She makes a guarding signal to her samurai, turning to look at Lee and then Wu. "We would be happy to step beyond the taint of the unbeings to discuss the matter further."

Akeha stares for half a second at Wu, before simply laughing bitterly. "To leave a threat such as the fae be is to invite one's own death. I would be remiss in my responsibility to my people, and in my own judgment, to let such a threat be. Nine Rivers has fallen to chaos, Si can not defend her people, San may be dead or is greatly diminished. Mighty Wu comes forth to settle intrusions herself." She makes a sweeping gesture around them. "Fae hunt the Chosen of Luna at whim, and threaten the people of the rivers with impunity to seek them. My lands would be next, and my father's, and my cousins'. I was cast out for becoming a Child of the Sun in my greatest hour of glory. I will not squander that gift as my Empire might sitting on a stool and drilling a hundred samurai until they have fallen asleep with their swords in their hands. I and my companions disagree on a great number of things, but we do agree here - we can not allow this to continue, because the Fae are monsters, because I have taken upon myself the task of rebuilding my city, because we have taken up the task offered to us by the Unconquered Sun, and because Fang Deshi is failing in his tasks."


She recomposes herself. "I or my companion might come to be the next warden of Nine Rivers in Fang Deshi's place. That is possible. It is not the purpose of our intrusion here, but it is a plain possibility. Should I yield to the perturbances of a Goddess such as yourself because it wounds your pride that Fang Deshi betrayed you, and so now you view all Children of the Sun with suspicion? That would be a betrayal of myself, of the Sun, and of my own people. I will see righteous order put to Nine Rivers, by my hand or another's, possibly even Fang Deshi's if the Fae have glamoured him into this state. I care not which, only that I see my purpose done with firm determination."

"I understand the feeling, but Lee thinks them important to our entry into the capital..." Akeha hedges to Rishi, eyeing the exchange in Old Realm she can barely catch tiny snippets of. It's clear she wasn't immediately alarmed until shortly after Rishi joins her, but her eyes begin to widen as Wu gestures and raises her voice even further.

Akeha steps forward to stand beside Lee, bowing deeply. "Your Grace, I am Hakuhi Akeha Tetsuzuru, Shugodai of Inaba where the Ginkawa and Yellow rivers meet on your northern border. We seek to aid your remedy in these lands - our greatest concern is for the stability and continued prosperity of the Nine Rivers as our neighbors. And in that respect, as these concerns have reached our shores, we find it necessary to intervene, however impertinent that might be."

"While we carry two of the unbeings that curse all creation, we do so in belief that we might use them to more easily contact Fang Deshi and his foul allies - so that we might clearly understand the root of the sickness and cut it away. Were it not for such concerns, we would happily have left their corpses on the banks of the Si river. But now we must seek any advantage for the unknown confrontation we face in the south, and for that reason seek your alliance as we sought Si's blessing."

"I come seeking the annihilation of the unbeings defiling Creation with every step. I expect little hospitality," Akeha snorts.

"I never said it was, merely offered that if you are so troubled in existence, I would happily relieve you of that burden," Akeha purrs, "Or perhaps let Her Grace Wu relieve you, so as to sate her anger."

"If you'd like to be relieved of the trouble, I can always kill you both here and now," Akeha offers to the fae, hefting her spear off her shoulder with a twirling flourish.

Akeha is barely following the outline of the conversation, but knows enough to make a dismissive gesture to her samurai. Though Chidori is resting on her shoulder, the blue jadesteel blade glittering in the sun, she is in clear repose, and silently commands her samurai to follow suit.

"We can't do much more than be respectful and hope for the best here," Akeha muses at both Rishi and Den. "With what we've been hearing of Fang Deshi and his fae allies, we'll need at least a Goddess with us, if not my army as well."

Akeha turns to Den, curiosity clear. "Do you know anything of this?" she wonders, arching an eyebrow.

"We should clean the space before attempting to contact Wu, I think," she suggests to everyone.

After discussing the matter with Den and Lee, Akeha concludes that Fang Deshi and his fey allies are quite dangerous. Instead of immediately bursting into the capital, they should seek the goddess Lee had heard about in hopes of bringing her over to their cause.

:(

Excal, we haven't really known each other that long but if you want to talk about anything ever I'm more than willing to listen. I do actually worry when you disappear! I just have no idea how to try to get a hold of you.

Don't know how much help I'll be besides being familiar with how it feels, but I'm here and stubborn as a mule!

Akeha nods to lee. "Master Den here will also join us. We'll discuss it more on the ship," she agrees, setting her spear on her shoulder.

"We will wait. I wouldn't want to leave our captives untended." Akeha shrugs.

Hakuhi nods, curiosity piqued. "All of us here I believe have been chosen by the Unconquered Sun within the last half-year," she admits, pursing her lips. "Lady Aaeiko had made something of the coincidence of all our meeting, but I hadn't thought of it in purely chronological terms," she admits, frowning. "It becomes even more strange in that light. But regardless, I will introduce you to Lady Aaeiko - she is a priestess and a leader of her people, much as I am a general and commander of my samurai."

"You can call me Hakuhi if you desire," Akeha allows, smiling a bit. "Curious... once? Have you survived since the First Age? Or do you speak of your own reincarnation?" she wonders, sounding even more than just curious, fascinated almost.

"I wouldn't blame you," Akeha offers wryly. "I was raised to think everyone present are devils," she snorts bitterly. "So as a curiosity... what do you see yourself as? Lady Aaeiko is almost the definitive self-image of a Solar, proud and strong and unyielding in her faith. But I have never met a Moon Demon in all my education of them."

"Such was meant more to warn you of my ingrained prejudices, unfortunately," Akeha bows in response, a little deeper this time. "From what she had said, I believe she is aware... they will be bound only to the exact letter of their agreement with her and nothing more. I will not expect much of them."

Akeha's eyebrows shoot up at the pronouncement of his identity. "I had come here to investigate myself what was occuring on my southern border. But with our discoveries here in this village, and in our conversation with the Goddess Si, the destruction of the Wyld taint has become my endeavor," she agrees. "I can not speak for all of us - Lady Aaeiko, Rishi, and Master Zhao are their own agents. Nor have I been raised with any trust for your kind, the demons of the moon that prowl in the night. But my Shogunate upbringing has been facing many challenges of late," she laughs bitterly.

"Very well then, Master Den. For if there is one thing the Dragons, the Sun, and the Moon should agree on, it is that these uncreatures should not foul creation. Lady Aaeiko will demand we keep these two alive to more easily reach and confront Fang Deshi. Beyond that allowance, I am happy to accept your assistance."

Akeha turns to face the local, her massive flare of Essence now fading a little to a bright blaze of white fire befitting her name. She gave a small bow to Den as Rishi introduces him. "Tetsuzuru Hakuhi, Shugodai of Inaba under the Tetsuzuru Daimyo, your neighbor to the north," she introduces herself. "We had heard of an invasion of the uncreatures of chaos, and sought to aid your Goddesses."
