Backdated to after Akashingo made their presence known
She couldn't wait a second longer to turn and retreat into the jungle. The Order wasn't ready to face the threat of a brat and his entitled fantasies. @Kyo wasn't ready. Not that he wasn't a capable fighter; it wasn't that. This whole culture was new to him; he only knew survival, and survival was indeed important now... Now that they had set up, they were only at risk of an expanding force next door and so soon at that. But the Honiyah had its rules, and that meant they had a few options to consider.
This...Akashingo. Kei didn't like the sounds of them. The boy came promising gifts for trade, but she had seen it played out a hundred times before. Buying the trust of your neighbors to either recruit them or lower their guard. A passive attempt at a takeover, but she had no plans to bow to a boy prince. She waited until they were deep into the trees before looking behind her for Kyo. He would be following; she knew that already.
“So that's a problem.”
