Thread: The Emporer and the Gaurdian (Shyone x Moon Struck Fox)

The advsior seemed to relax noticeably as the dragons took control of the sitiuation and kept things flowing. At the same time making it quite obvious that they had not been insulted at all by the prince that they had been presented with. It was not that the adviser was inept, or not knowlegdable about dragons, it was that it was hard to understand what it was like to see the world through eyes that lived so long. That was why usally the tutor and advisor who handled this, was the eldest of the human scholars... so that at least he would have some prepestive. Yet the reason for his nervousness was for many reasons... Kurosawa was the only male heir, and so this ceromony was improtant that he get the best gaurdian possiable. The problem was, that the treaty and relationship bettewen the royal family and the dragons had grown to the point where the dragons had a lot of say in the matter. If they didn't want a certian daugther with the Emporer... it wouldn't happen. Plus there was the final problem that Ryou didn't even have a wife yet, which actually the worse problem of them all. Many people saw the young heir as the end of the dyanasty... It was the same one that had orginally formed the treaty with the dragons, and so they had just as much at stake in it. This was even potential stirings over placing one of Ryou's sisters, or cousins on the throne over it. Yet the aging emporer would never be presauded. The reason for this had to do with a Bhuddist monk whom, the king had given water and food to while traveling on the road home. With Ryou's mother carrying the baby boy in her arms. Even then the prince had been an odd looking little thing, with that wide eyed stare and those dark dark eyes. Yet the monk in returned for the kindness had told the king to mke sure this child was the one who sat on the seat of power. The man wouldn't have believed it, had he not seen his sons leadership abilities. We are humbled by your hospotality Elders... the young Prince is also, and he thanks you for your kind words that you have spoken about him. The only way that Ryou showed he knew he was being spoken to was when Ming Yue looked in his direction and began to talk to him. Causing Ryou to look back at her over his shoulder.... that curtian of hair showing just one eye... that for some reason held a hint of fear... or was it nervousness... or both. It was very puppydog in it's likeness though. The group of humans followed along after Ming Yue towards the room that she lead them towards. The gaurds were being escorted off to there rooms and shown who was assigned were. The entire group of humans seemed to marvel at the rich magesty around them, that was only macthed in the human word by the palace at the captial. Little did they know this didn't compare to the actual palace of the Dragon Emporer himself. Yet Ryou hardly seemed to move his head to around at all... or at least that was what it seemed. The hair covered the wide eyed, and very child like glint in his eyes that darted form dragon esque statue to dragon to esque statue. Though he held back his usual Cheshire Cat like grin. Even when the young man finally caught a glimpse of the room with which he would be staying... which like everything else made him feel a certian gitty nature inside. The young prince wsa half paying attention to what his advisor and the speaker for the clans was talking about. Luckily though... he caught the very end of it as his advsior answered for him, My lady Ming Yue... I regret to say that the prince has had quite the long day of travel getting here, and needs his rest for tommorrow... So I think it would best if he just.... Suddenly without waring, Ming would feel a lithe hand lace itself with her white leather bound digits. The style of dress for the Chosen prevented any accidental contact that could cause an accidental instant bonding, which leave the unlucky pair... well out of lucky. The young prince also wrapped his other arm around her waist and pulled himself close to her. Burying his face in her side the answer given without words. He wanted the Chosen to come stay wth him.
