*the messenger is ushered into the Emperor’s office, kowtowing before him, he raises the message tube up with his right hand, keeping his forehead plastered to the floor.*
“Leave it on the table and you can go!” came the voice from across the room, “and stop down in the kitchen and tell them to feed you!”
*the messenger quickly obeys and departs for the kitchen, where he is rewarded with a bowl of rice and a fresh fish.*
Ikura places his sword back in the rack after a cleaning and sharping, walking towards his desk he hears the sounds of the cranes playing in the lake. He picks up the tube with the seal of Wolves Hollow upon it. Running his finger over the raised wolf’s head, he snaps the seal and begins to read.

Greetings from Wolves Hallow,
As requested, I have chosen a young woman to act as Ambassador for Wolves Hallow. Her name is Jade. I can have her meet with you at your earliest convenience at our meeting hall. Should this prove to be satisfactory, please send word.

He places the letter on his desk and picks up a small bell, ringing it. A moment later a servant comes in and bows; “Hai my lord?”
“Send for the monk Kukai, I wish to speak with him” Ikura waves the servant off and moves around to sit behind his desk. He looks out the window and allows his thoughts to drift.
An hour passes and there is a slight tap on his office door; “come in old friend,” The emperor looks up as KuKai, lifelong friend, Minister of Magic & Things Spiritual slides thought the doorway with grace and posie, “you summoned me master?” KuKai spoke softly.
The emperor hands him the letter; “You will take care of this as usual?” KuKai takes the letter with both hands and reads it; “Hai my Lord, I will leave at once!” Ikura smiles; “Domo my old friend.”
Without another word, KuKai bows and withdraws from the room, heading to Wolves Hollow.
