Masayoshi Chu left The Snake Clan palace with the dew of the early sunrise to begin his lonely walk to The Shrine of the Kami. A crisp morning in the dying throes of winter, it felt appropriate, mournful. Arriving at The Shrine in the late morning, he passed the letter bearing the seal of the Zu Family upon it. Unfurled and read, the custodian gave a condolatory smile and offered refreshment.
Sat outside The Shrine Masayoshi was served rice and tea. He waited long enough to see the priests begin the purification ritual upon the grounds. Smelling the jasmine incense being spread around the Holy Site he was satisfied that the funeral preparations had begun. Before leaving he was attended by The Shrine’s Shugenja. Masayoshi passed on his most humble thanks along with a small parcelled gift for the Kami, in turn the man blessed Masayoshi and assured him that everything would be ready upon their return. ============================================== Oc: flavour post one of three, cheers guys.
