The debris at your feet shifts as you move about, raising small couds of dust. For most of the day nothing changes, but towards sunset the gorge starts to widen out, but at the same time the horizon ahead seems too short.

The reason for this is soon evident, the path comes to an end, the way ahead a seemingly endless view of blue, punctauted by a white cloud. Clinging to the side of the cliff a group of monks can be seen tending to small gardens, seemingly cut into the cliff's sides and descending downwards. Amongst the monks can be seen small figures, darting between them at fast speeds, seemingly unconcerned with the distance to the ground below.

Remembering his mountainous home, Shokai isn´t too surprised with the new "path". He smiles to the others and advances towards the nearest gardener monk and bows.

Kuni Akata, Shugenja

*Akata joins Shokai at the front of the group and also bows to the monks*

"Greetings most honorable brothers. I am Kuni Akata, simple shugenja of the Crab clan, the Order of the Impenetrable Crucible."

One of the monks ahead stops his work at your approach and comes forward. He bows, his head coming visible as he lifts it. Not quite what you expected, his head has close resemblance to that of a horse, his hair a horses mane. At his side is a small creature, it looks like a ball of fur which keeps darting around, climbing along his body and then back to the ground.

"Greetings honoured guests. Welcome to our home. Not often we receive human nobles here on the edge of the world. Come, follow me, and you and your servants will be made welcome."

With something close to love in his eyes he steps forward and strokes each of the horses.

"Marvelous beasts these. We seldom see them in this area, it is sad but then this area is not very hospitable for them."

"We deeply regret we can´t pay your home the visit it deserves" says Shokai, who tries to accept things as they come and not to seems surprised. "But courtesy must bow before a most urgent task of the maximum importance that claims us: we can only stay here the time needed to cross your home as a way to descend this cliff and continue our way."
