The Steward paced back and forth. He was wearing his mark I but the faceplate had yet to fully conceal his face. He awaited for one of his best friends to join him. There were few people that the Steward truly trusted, but one of them was Sunaku Harupia. The Sunaku were some distant relation to the Sunahoshi, but none of them could control the diamond sands. It was also remarked that there was a sort of ancient scuffle between the two clans, to the Steward that was 'water under the bridge', which meant that it was in the past. Why one would use such a term to say history was past the Steward's understanding.
His mother had left him with a specific set of instructions to host a dinner of sorts. His mother's orders read as follows:
The Steward wasn't exactly keen to share the letter with Harupia for the last bit. The Steward didn't host parties. Even though he hosted the Christmas gathering this year, he did so with his father who had a long history of hosting such events.
And so the Steward returned to pacing awaiting the arrival of his confident - Sunaku Harupia.

Masashi Chiyoko said:Sousuke,
As of late I've been under the weather as you know. I was going to be hosting a dinner for some old allies along with your father. Unfortunately I must leave this task to you. While Okibi and Number Seven are no longer with you at this moment, I trust that you may find a friend to aid you in this undertaking.
Remember the rules of a host. Once you offer them sustenance, then they are under your protection. Should you be attacked, it is up to your guests to protect their host. A host is bound to keep the peace even in the face of the most threatening and intimidating. In your case you'll be hosting to a series of elementals. Fear not though, Prime Diamund is amongst them and she has a long friendship with your father.
Hugs and Kisses.
Mother.
