..............To expect, a large number of priests, dignitaries and senior military officers.
Li saw in the distance in their bright colored clothes and ceremonial headgear, including a banner and another, between a flag and a banner of feathers of roach all there, perfectly aligned, as a perfect military department. Five parallel horizontal double file, each of which consists of eight people per party, in the middle of these, the one who took to be the lord of those lands. The first two rows were composed of only senior dignitaries xamariani.
All the people who came to welcome us cover a significant role or had some influence in that society. Many had also route while hundreds of miles to be present at lemirax and many had lost their lives in an attempt to warn, in time, their lord.
To do the honors of the house frenor Onali ti-Asu. I frenor were powerful lords of the provinces, the daimyo of the feudal Japan. Their power was absolute in a few words could do good or bad weather. As for the priest, but these were always accompanied by personal guards, the noble atsari, without them, the frenor not moved a single step. That day, as well agl'inseparabili atsari, to accompany him had also joined a number of priests ghol, the so-called educators. For Captain Stone, these were the old checché opportunistic, beings from the dubious morality, who lived under the protective wing of the powerful lords of the provinces and that their status quo, he could claim that any kind of support from all the people.
Calling the fifteen canoes on the small pier, the lemirax went down first and quickly disappeared inside the village in front of the marina. The priest with his warriors, fell after the lemirax, and went on to form a new and unique to the other front row. The priest was at the center, knelt in the gesture of kissing the ground twice and then upward. The same did everyone else. Then we descend from canoes, slaves and the department are preparing to come to Olmeca.
We ordered three in a row at the center with doctors and men of subsistence: drivers and cooks. I was the head of department, Dr Dubois to my left and the largest Reznavir to my right. The sergeants major mac and Tat Douglas closed the department.
Arrived at the priest stopped us: all the people kneel again, the only one to remain standing was the only prelate. Bowed his head three times, as the classic Japanese greeting, having joined hands in front of your face, farfugliò something not registered and then turned toward the population.

Officially, we gave the welcome. Then, I presented to you Onali-Asu, son of the noble Terkim ti-Asu, lord of the raptors Khyxiel upstream from where the majestic bird took its name.
Around us the most absolute silence. It was as if all the cities themselves asleep, as if anyone were to disrupt that moment. No noise, no sound.

Onalia was the last descendant of the family of Hkdel, one of the oldest families ismariane was a proud and haughty character. Did not believe at all that we were the gods, or even the descendants of the fourteen ancient arcane. When I was presented, the priest reproach him severely because he had ostentatious his outlook on my eyes.
He had a robust physique, thick and curly red beard and long hair, well-combed and collected in a single braid, with a decorative headgear shaped corolla of flower, made of a woven cloth similar to yellow and blue .

In life wore a thick leather belt closed by a large gold buckle engraved with the family coat of arms: the falcon khyxiel. At the foot sturdy leather boots were insured to the shin.
