The Entrance Hall

[Zarame Haibane]

*The teen, red-headed human slave stumbles slightly, tripping on his black hakama and falls onto his hands and knees, his head slowly lifts his eyes glowing a blood red from their original grey behind his fringe.* Grrrrr.

*growls silently in anger at his masters and then his eyes revert back grey, realising where he is.*

....ah...

*He now bows nervously and stands up quickly walking backwards out of the room, the rest of his black oriental outfit following him, his head still bowed. Showing he knew Clan Kage was a thing to be feared*

[nathaniel]

Nathaniel, wearing his distinctive white shirt and tricorn hat with large white feather, arrives looking tired.

He mutters something under his breath about incompetent transporters.

With a sigh his shoulders slump and he heads out into the city.

[Chu-Mei]

*The circle pulses and inside the circle appears two people, One is male and on closer inspection is a dark fured Miso, the other is female wearing a white komono who looks very human to the guards at the circle*

Miso am tellings you am not knowing where living shadowses are.....

[Miso]

*Miso turns to face his companion as they walk towards the great doors, and snarls at her*

Miso knowings Family am takings it. They am not sayings what they am doings with it. Miso knowings you am havings somethings to do with it.

[Chu-Mei]

*Chu-Mei keeps walking to the city and looks like she is heading to the tea house*

[Kazumi Madoka Kage]

*kazumi enters, her face as stone, paying no attention to anyone on around her she storms towards the great hall*

[Kage Chiyo-sama]

*Tall ellegant Drow female enters the hall. She is dressed in the most delecate of silk kimonos her face altho black has a covering of white makeup with lips of the richest of reds. She looks about and noticing the slave nods and whispers in his ear.. He nods and leaves the hall..A short while later he returns and says "It has been done " The Drow female nods and leaves the hall with a rustling of silk*

[Kazumi Madoka Kage]

OOC - PLEASE NOTE I'M COMMENTINGH FOR JOSH ( ZETSUME) CAUSE HE CAN'T ATM

* 4 people entre the hall, 1 is obviously the High Priestess Kazumi by the black spider pendant hanging round her neck, apart form that, she looks like any other drow, a hood hiding her unusual gold hair, with tight black trousers and a tight shirt, and a pair of bone daggers hanging at her waist, one of the males behind her was walking closer to her than the others, his face hidden behind a white death mask, his black skin barely covered with light armour and leather trousers, with swords hanging from a belt at his waist. Kazumi doesn't stop walking through the main gates*

[Zarame Haibane]

OOC - Please also note Chris (Aiglos) is on holiday so I will comment for him.

Slowly another drow male enters face visible underneath his hood with a large drow blade strapped onto his back, he walks forward falling slightly behind the other male Drow.

And lastly the human, servant to the drow males and the High Priestess walks slowly behind them head down and hands beside his waist, his blade is not seen to be anywhere.

[Kazumi Madoka Kage]

* kazumi stops and turns to Zetsume, she smiles slightly and beckons him over and tehn whispers something in his ear*

[William Faust III]

OOC-Gonna post Kat's entrance to help her along since we'd arrive together.

*A human steps out into the entrance hall, accompanied by a large Phoneix guard with an odd chefs hat though this is overshadowed by her shield and large cleaver. Both stare fixedly around the hall as the human speaks to his guard 'Buttercup...I believe we have reached the true known edges of Erdreja' to which the Phoneix nodded. The human, dressed in a tattered military greatcoat and minus his new hat (which he had traded with a goblin for 'acrobatics') stepped forward and gave the order 'EAD move out...'. The Phoneix looked at him 'There's only two of us you know sir...'. The Human, red faced, carried on with a quiet '...I knew that Buttercup...'*

[HandMaiden]

A pair of glowing eyes watches from the shadows, they blink a couple of times and vanish.

[Mamoru Kage (old)]

*a male drow fades in, in a black as night hooded cloak two swords pommels showing slightly underneath steps forward halts from somewhere out of the dark two further drow materialise meet him with a brace salute recieve a small-ish box *

be careful she is small and will kill you if she gets free, and if she does not i will, take her to the collection room

*turns and sees william faust III and buttercup* human stand your ground your heading the wrong way follow me *turn and head of to the right not looking back expecting obedience. fingers flicker another drow warrior slips from the shadows and disappears*

[William Faust III]

*Faust looked across at the regent, watching the two guards materialize, he looked across to butercup quietly 'can you see well in the dark?'. Se reponded with a sullen nod and he turned back noddding politely 'ok lead the way...', following the drow*

[Slave Overseer]

*As the group approach the great mythril doors that lead to the inner city, the doors remain sealed.*

*one of the servants hurries forward and bows before Mamoru*

My lord, the inner city is sealed against outsiders. Until your guests swear alligance to the Clan, and are publicly recognised as such, the doors will remain sealed before them.

[Mamoru Kage (old)]

* glare at the servant* indeed in that case take them to the shines make sure they are fed *leave them and enter the inner city (this is before entering the great hall)*

[William Faust III]

*Faust looks at those around him and calmly says 'I do hope that we aren't going to be...arresting any more of our time moving back and forth through these few tunnels'. He tilted his head and patted his coat down 'If someone would kindly escort us to these shrines you speak of then we will be perfectly happy to accept any rest and lodgings...'. Faust moved his hair back with a hand and bowed '...I apologise if we caused any offence by appearing at this gate, we are just weary after returning'.*

[Slave Overseer]

*The servant bows to Faust*

No offense, Honoured Guest. These gates form a nexus for travelers in Icchi no Kage - all who wish to travel by Circle must pass through these chambers, as do many of those who wish the enter the inner city.

*His voice lowers slightly*

Lord Mamoru appears to have forgotten the inner city is forbidden to outsiders, even guests of the Regent.

When you are ready to depart, I shall escort you to the Shrine, but if you wish to relax and find lodgings first, may I reccomend the House of the Obsidian Lotus? It is located near the Shrines, and only a short distnace from these gates.

[William Faust III]

*Faust dropped his shoulders and his official tone 'sure...take us there so we can rest'. He looked round to Buttercup and sighed 'ok we should be getting lodgings soon so you can rest those wings of yours...' He set off behind the servant '...oh and don't let anyone try and get your feathers Buttercup!' he laughed 'there expensive'. Buttercup replied by taking of her hat and thwacking Faust 'Is that all i'm worth...my feathers?' she said with a chuckle and continued alongside him*
