Flowers of the Empire

[Emperor Tekagi]

The Sunekosuri had been in high orbit of the Planet for roughly an hour already, positioned just far enough from the trade lanes not to disturb the general traffic.
The vessel was one of the newest of its kind, featuring the newest developments of Kusari technology beneath the famous outer hull silhouette. Though, the Sunekosuri was more than just the embodiment of luxury or decadence: It served a role unspoken of and known to just a few selected individuals even within the Kusari Cabinet: If Kusari was ever to fall, the Sunekosuri would act as the mobile hideout to members of the permanent Cabinet, the Shogun and potentially the Emperor himself.

However, such visions of doom were no topic this day.
The shuttle's request was being answered by a young woman, everyone who had the rare opportunity to visit the Prime Minister's office in the Imperial District on New Tokyo, would have recognized her as the chief secretary of Prime Minister Miyasu.

"Sunekosuri to shuttle Zeta-2, we're pleased to hear about your safe arrival. Miss Miyasu is awaiting Lord Shimamori already. Please proceed to the main docking bay. Our personnel will guide Lord Shimamori to the facility Miss Miyasu waits at."
