 * KF|- Before heading to the Fuma compound to begin the rebuilding process he had to run errands around town. He was in fresh clothes now, very similar to the ones he had while out on his journey in the world but they were a lot crisper and well made so to speak. [See Keldran page for further appearance details] As he was walking through the market district of the village he was getting many nasty looks from the villagers who just from the day previous had out casted him and tried to place him in a class lower than the dirt beneath their very own feet. But it didn’t bother Keldran, most things didn’t anymore after what he has been through.

Keldran’s first stop was a print and press shop, upon entry he waved and spoke out to the lady. “Heyo.” The land would respond with a disgusted and sharp gaze back at Keldran but simply responded with, “Hi.” Keldran would come to the counter and place both of his hands down. “So, I came by to pick up my print and press copies of recruitment papers.” She would nod and head off into the back of the building where the sound of the press could be heard chugging back and forth. After 3 minutes, she’d return with a large stack of about 50 papers. Keldran would drop 1000 ryo onto the counter and grip the stack with one arm and head out the door. “Thank you.” He would say as he left back out onto the street. As he wandered the various streets of Konoha he pinned the recruitment flyers to posts and even walls, so that the message could be widely spread. By the end of it he had only four left which he intended to save for the compound gate to let people know this was the final destination for inquiry.

With the 4 flyers left in hand, he traveled to the south side of Konoha to meet with a contractor he had sent a message to the night before. It took him 10 minutes by slow walk and then he’d be met by a group of 20 men, each smiling and waving him down as soon as Keldran came into sight. “Yo guys!” he waved back before meeting with the manager of the operation. Both men shook each other’s hands and begun to speak about the layout plans he had constructed over-night. “Alright Keldran, with the suggested amount of payment you gave us, which thank you again for being so gracious. This is what we’d be able to create out of the already phenomenal Fuma compound. What do you think?

   [Improved compound picture will be at the bottom of the post.]

Keldran looked at it and pondered for a few second, almost as if he was going to say he disliked it with the look on his face. But then he laughed and slapped his back, “I’m fooling ya. It looks amazing. I’d be honored to have you guys turn it into this for me and my family.” The manager would wipe a beet of sweat off his forehead and laugh with him. “Sounds great. We will head there now, soon you in a bit Keldran.” Keldran nodded and watched them walk off with their tools in hand. Even though it seemed nice and cheery, he knew they only acted nice because of how much he was paying them. Ryo helps most situations that don’t involve shinobi so he had to use it to his advantage. Now he had one more destination before heading back to his former home. The furniture store.

After leaving south-side Konoha he went back towards the market streets and eventually entered a furniture shop. Upon doing so he laid down 3000 ryo on the counter and took a decently long oak table and two wooden chairs along with it. He hoisted the table onto his shoulder and carried the two chairs in his other hand. He quickly left and now jogged towards the remains of the old Fuma Compound.

As O began to inspect the walls, the construction crew of 20 men came fluttering in with their tools and various materials to build with. 10 minutes after Keldran would arrive and call out to O, “Yo brother! Those construction guys are from me by the way. He’d set down the table and two chairs directly facing the busted gate entrance. Then he quickly went back outside to slap the last four flyers, two on the right-side compound wall and two on the left. He then went back towards the table and sat at one of the chairs. “Also, I’m recruiting new members/family members for the clan today. You will be helping me. Today ought to be fun.” Keldran smiled to his brother and looked to the gates, waiting for the first person to swing by. - |KF|
