Ok i had to re-read the entire fanfic, graduated from a PC to a MAC XD so my stories are all on the internet. Sighs sesshy stop scaring little kids.
The nest morning she locked herself in the study going thru the papers that weren't too important, but still needed tending to. A gentle knock came from outside 'my lady, i am Ai, may i enter' without lifting her head from the piles of papers. Rin answered 'please do' a human servant of her brother entered.
'i am sorry to bother you my lady, but do you know of my lord's whereabouts?' Ai asked kindly 'i am afraid that last i heard, he was going back to dragon village to settle some disputes, did you not see him last night' 'no my lady, he hasn't returned to Dragon Village all night, and its already noon' Rin looked up from her papers 'summon lord Eguchi, Ai'
Eguchi enter the study room with his head bowed down. 'my lady you asked for me'. 'i do believe you would know my brother's whereabouts? You do know i hate being lied to.' Lord Eguchi answered as such 'there was an incident that happened at the wedding party in the western lands. And his highness went and made sure everything was alright.'
A messenger came running into the office with a panicked look on his face 'my lady this just came from the western lands bearing a seal of the lord of the northern lands.' Rin sighed, she knew things were never going to go smoothly anytime soon, i mean on one hand i sent my best general then my brother sneaks behind me and goes and settle the problem and still i get a letter from the northern lord. This is not going to end well.
Lord Eguchi watched in fear, fear that he might be caught for not informing her of the problem. 'get the royal guards ready, i am going to leave now, Lord Eguchi i:ll be expecting a letter from you stating the reason why i was not inform of the problem by you. Just so you know i know of this matter. I am a through explaination for your actions. Ai you shall come with me.'
together with Ai and the royal guards the proceeded to the western lands via the royal dragon force, in her mind she had to make sure her status doesn;t get exposed. 'in the western lands i shall be addressed as Lady Rin, drop all royal titles when addressing me there, i shall pose only as the messenger for royal highness.' she said to no one in particular.
She hoped that the lord of the southern lands would not be able to identify her as they haven't met face to face except a glance once in the past. and her interactions with her past would be kept to a minimum. She never would have went if the letter didn't come.
It had read 'since our last request to have the lady of the eastern lands be held responsible by agreeing to be the mistress of our lord of the nothern lands hasn't been met, we shall therefore declare war against the eastern lands, futhermore all the 3 detainees [namingly the prince of the eastern lands, general Kono & Ambassador Abe shall be deported out of the western lands.'
to her she knew, why her brother went and do the things she did, but she didn;t like the idea still.
