The Shoguns Request!

The procession pulled up to the large Minka known as the Ackermann estate. A large farm could be seen, extending some distance away from their home. The farm lands displayed an assortment of vibrant, colorful trees with colors such as Glaucous, Mikado, Carmine red and even Coquelicot.

The moment they had arrived, Emrica was seen at the front of her home on horseback, speaking with her father.

They were surprised to see 3 carriages followed by ten single horsemen, pulling onto their property.

When the main royal carriage pulled up, its passengers had a clear view of the owner and his daughter who stood in front of the house.

The shogun fixed himself in his seat and fixed his hair even though he had no intention of exiting the carriage. The commander however, stepped out of the carriage followed by the Fabian the sorcerer.

Emrica: Looks like you have guest father. I am off to see Yoshuu.

Father: Be back before sundown he responded.

The coach passengers watched as Emrica turned her horse and ushered it to move swiftly, riding off into the distance.

Her brown hair was long and had a shine to it under the afternoon sun. Her skin color seemed to be a mix of white and a very light brown. One might say a light, antique white which was different to many local women. Her dark green eyes mesmerize those whom she laid eyes upon. Emrica rode off towards her betrothed as her father attended to his guests.

Commander: Mr Ackermann. Can we have a moment of your time.

Mr. Ackermann: Sure, why not!

The sorcerer, who had walked out of the carriage, stood in close proximity to the landowner Mr Ackermann and the commander as they ventured inside his home.

Commander: Mr Ackermann. I stand before you on the request of the shogun of this land. He has an amazing proposition for you. Your daughter…..can become a wealthy and prominent young woman of these lands, if she...and you...accept the shogun's proposal and hand in marriage to your daughter.
