Green River City.
An old woman sat on the side of the road near the eastern gates, grilling some meat skewers over a charcoal fire. Occasionally, she would rotate the bamboo sticks so the meat would be evenly cooked from all sides. It was a rather peaceful sight. Or it would have been if an entire squad of armed guards weren't standing nearby.
"Took you long enough to find me." The old lady said, not even bothering to look up.
"Fu Zhelan greets the Queen Mother." The general replied, getting down on one knee. Of course, seeing what was happening, the rest of his personal guards were quick to catch on and immediately replicated their superior.
"Ah, why must you be so conspicuous?" The old lady couldn't help but shake her head. "Now everyone in the area is staring at us. How am I to conduct my business now, huh?"
