A luxurious palace located in the bustling heart of Jian Ye. Xilang had renevations begin as soon as he had taken it. Those wishing to serve the baron may come here to request an audience with him.

After his long trek from Xia Pi, he had reached the city of Jian Ye. Sighing, he trotted his horse up to the palace and dismounted a few yards in front of the gate. Walking up to one of the guards he spoke.
"I was told Lord Xilang had traveled to the palace of Jian Ye...may I meet with him?"
His attire was simply atrocious now, it was a bit more ragged from the trek without sleeping, his face however was covered by a hood, suprisingly, under the hood, it was as if he had slept soundly the entire way.

The guard stepped back in disgust at the approach of the ragged man.
"Another petition? Well, Baron Shang said allow them all in. These guards will escort you to the throne room."
The man was escorted through the lavish halls to the magnificent throne room, where Xilang sat surrounded by his Amazon guards. Georg Prime was lurking about in an out of the way corner as well, no doubt. When the man was shown in, Xilang nodded the dismissal of the escorting guards, who reluctantly left. He smiled kindly at the ragged looking-man.
"Welcome friend. What is it you wish to discuss?"

"Lord Xilang...I wish to join your forces as an officer...or even a soldier..."
The man threw his hood back before speaking to show no disrespect, he looked as though he could be no older than mabye twenty.

Xilang pondered a moment. While capable men were of abundance here in the Southland, many had been neglecting their duties of late.
"Your youth makes me somewhat reluctant to give you the responsibility of an officer, but I myself am not much older than you. Alright. I need someone to train my men here in Jian Ye, and I have a few miscellaneous tasks that need to be done. I appoint you as Garrison Commander in Jian Ye. Report to the barracks to begin your duties, but if you would like to rest for the day, you may. Oh yes, before I forget..."
Xilang nodded to one of the Amazons, who produced a quil and parchment. Xilang quickly wrote a few characters then waited for the ink to dry. He then handed the parchment to one of the Amazons who brought it to the young man.
"This letter will grant you access to our military head quarters. And if you need something, you can inquire about it at the treasury... What am I forgetting..? Ah, of course! What is your name, friend?"

"Acare....Sen Acare, Thank you Lord Xilang, I will fulfill my duties the best I can..."
He smiled lightly and then took the piece of parchment, before turning to leave. After taking a few steps he turned back to Xilang.
"My lord...do you know of where I might buy some decent clothing?"

Xilang laughed.
"Don't worry about that, I'll have some clothing ready for you when you return."
(mmmm.... lazy right now... used up all creativity on last post.)

A guard, obviously annoyed, addresses the rider.
"He's in the throne room, these guards will take you there."
The guards escort the man before Xilang. As usual his Amazon guards were near him. He smiled cordially as the man was lead in.
"What can I do for you my friend?"

Xilang cocked his head slightly.
"Well then, there is much work to be in the various districts under our control, we need to improve commerce, train soldiers, fortify the walls and make weapons. We also have to bring brigands to justice to ensure peace. Please go aid in one of these tasks."

A tired and hungry Sanada Yukimura stumbled into Jian Ye, after a day of rest the former captive of Zhao and officer of Han came to the palace at Jian Ye.
He was stopped by the guards and asked entrance to see Lord Shang.

The guards look over the man. Theylooked over the man standing before them.
"Lord Shang is in battle at Chai Sang, but you may enter the palace if you like. I'm sure someone will attend to your needs."

"Thank you," he said as he walked in. He looked around and saw no one and then left a note.
Lord Shang,
After being an officer of the Han and then captured by Zhao I have realized that the Han has been corrupted by bad leaders under the Emperor, I have come here, sent by the Lord of Zhao, to join you and free China, and the Emperor, from men like Cao Cao and Jin Pin.
Yukimura then left the palace...
