Negotations

Takeshi was a samurai, after mastering the sword at the age of 16 he has gone on to become a samurai that will do almost any job at the right price. Now it is nine years later and he has came to a neutral spot at the local bar to meet his client, or their messenger as nobles often do.

Takeshi waited patiently for his client and even mediated while he did so. He looked back on himself and his life up to this point, remembering all the highs and lows of his life. Then he looked at himself now: a light skinned human male that stands at 6'1 with black hair and hazel eyes. Underneath his robe were muscles he bult up after constant training for years to near pefection for a man with his combat style.

Just then a man in black armour sat right in frony of Takeshi. "Ah! Sorry for the wait, you know how work is..." The man said. Takeshi snaps out of his meditation and looks over the man. The man appears to be middle aged and obivously has combat experience although Takeshi can't tell his style nor his armour. He may also been in his prime age at the moment. He has blonde hair with a black hair at the end of his beard. Maybe this is his client?

"Oh! Where are my manners? My name is Garnon Nohr of Audasia! Am I right in assumong you are Takeshi?" He greeted Takeshi as he put out his hand.

I took his hand and nodded. "Excellent!" Garnon exclaimed. "Now, let us head straight into the job details, yes? First off: No I am not your client. In fact that is my younger brother, he wants you to protect his daughter and him as they travel to the capital by foot. Usually he goes with a standard group of bodyguards but last year they were all killed, kidnapped, or what ever and he couldn't replace them in time. So he needs you!" Garnon pitched the idea like a barter on the streets.

I thought for a moment. "Slow down there champ. First off you've been incredibly vague so far. I haven't even heard my client's name yet." I said.

"Ah yes! Sorry about that, but I can't tell you until after you agree. Very secret you know? I am sure you do." He explained quickly.

Takeshi raised a eyebrow. "How secret?" Takeshi asked.

"National secrests." He answered simply his face uncharestically serious for his actions so far.

'That importany huh? This client must be pretty important for being so secretive and what appears to have many **** attempts on him.' Takeshi thought to himself. "Are you sure I am capable of this job alone?"

Garnon smirked at that. "You'll actually have a few other bodyguards with you. I usually accompany my brother on these visits but the recent tessions have left me staying at the border I command near 24/7. It was a pain simply getting a hour off for this."

"So you are a general then?" Takeshi asked.

He nodded. "Why yes in fact I am. My legend was born before your time but I was a key figure in the war ten years ago if that interests you."

Takeshi nodded at that. "So does the client make these trips often?" Takeshi asked.

"Ah about four times a year yes. Unfortunately, his usual protection as I said was wiped out the last time." Garnon explained.

"One last question, who are these people i'll be working with?" I asked one last time.

"Hmm..." Garnon stroked his chin. "Guess I can tell you that. Here is the file." Garnone handed a file to you and waited for you to read it.
