Tashi/Akaimeryu stood in attention when captain called for it. Then relaxed when Daimyo gave permission. He felt the quiet subtle camaradier of the other guards and felt one pat him on shoulder. Tashi is still quite reserved personality but he appreciated these subtle moments. He departed from Daimyo's office and moved towards Maki's home, place where Maki have worked almost non-stop for three years now. He does not run but he walks openly in the village street. People flinch away and make room almost as if by instinct, even when they do not see him they shift before they realize what for they moved.<br/><br/>This much Daimyo's guard has grown to fear and dislike even if Daimyo guard, so far as he knew, had done nothing against villagers and only thanks brewing rumor mill guard has bad reputation. Plus the side decisions and actions what Daimyo does which almost none understand but Tashi had been behind the scenes and seen what logic Daimyo makes the decisions. But Daimyo does not explain his reasonings, which is the flaw he thinks. If villagers would know reasons, they would understand the decisions better. Altough some decisions are perhaps unneccesary harsh but even those are without a reason.<br/><br/>Once he reaches front of Maki's home he knocks loudly on the door, doing steady but loud knocks. He waits minute before he repeats the process, as sometimes Maki can get distracted or idle with her thoughts before her mind registers someone is knocking and waiting on her door.
