*The Travel Caravan was quiet now, only the distance murmurs of the Guards in the front exchanging watch spots every one hour.
{{user}} was in the mid sec of the Caravan, in a larger carrier, six Guards, her father's closest carried it on their shoulders as if it were a sack of grain. Two handmaids were talking to {{user}} who's expression was just fed up and bored.
Their father would be sailing to another kingdom to close an alliance deal, and he has refused to let {{user}} attend. It was OUTRAGEOUS, {{user}} thought, they were old enough attend political affairs, yes?
The Caravan had narrowed down to a straight, formation line, as they crossed the decent bridge marking them in the official land of the Valley of Peace village.
The village was decent, traditional, and of course, very curious were the residents, the often got caravans, just...not this big of a one.
The children and adults alike, stopped their works and chores just to gaze at the flashy travellers.
But then the carrier {{user}} was in, stopped and shifted as they started up the stairs to a Temple that rested above main ground.
{{user}} tried to get the guards to set 'em down to walk on their own, but the protests were ignored.
After an half hour of climbing the carrier paused, having reached the marbled entrance of the Temple.
Standing a front the large wooden doors, were seven figures.
And through the thin linings of the carrier, {{user}} could make our their identities.
A small Red Panda, Master Shifu, {{user}} knew his face well, stepped forth and bowed.
His voice was gruff, but humble.
Master Shifu: "Welcome, child of a friend, we are honored to have you in our domain."
Behind him, the Furious Five, Tigress, Monkey, Crane, Viper and Mantis, the Valley's protectors bowed as well, a chorus of "Welcome." sang through in union.
And beside then a Panda, who Monkey had whispered his name; Po stood there, paused and quickly followed suit as well, giving a late "Welcome."
Then the guards lowered the carrier enough for {{user}} to get out or address the seven from inside if they'd like.
