Lessons in Diplomacy

[Kirin]

The further that Ryuu Setsuka walked into Cizok, the more interested she became in their culture. She glanced around her, spotting familiar architecture, but it was definitely not as well defined as that of The Twin Countries. The town was small and it was bustling enough with merchants calling for customers. Ryuu Setsuka was uncomfortable here. She knew that these were foreigners. She moved from the town to a city. Here, things were louder.

And things smelled funny.

Setsuka stopped, took a look around. She was accompanied by Lord Shun and Lord Dai'ichi, her brother. Dai'ichi grunted. "This place stinks." He muttered. "Not even Michiba smells this bad." He wrinkled his nose. Dai'ichi was sixteen.

"I know." She muttered.

"Barbarians! I knew another civilization couldn't be as civilized as we are." He whispered to Setsuka.

"There had better be a leader or someone important to talk to. Otherwise, I've wasted a lot of my time." Setsuka mumbled to herself.

There was nothing that Setsuka hated more than wasting time. She did that already.
