Back inside the Grand Hall, Mei Hua stood before a large, detailed map depicting the surrounding regions known Sects, Clans, Kingdoms, etc. Markers indicated the position of allied and rival sects.
A soft knock interrupted her thoughts as she looked towards the door and said, "Enter."
An Inner Sect Elder stepped in, bowing respectfully, "Sect Leader, letters have arrived from the Azure Sky Sect and the Ironwood Mountain Clan."
Mei Hua raised an eyebrow, and asked lightly, "Oh? What do they have to say?"
"They propose a meeting to discuss the cooperation between our Sects and Clan within the Mystique Realm," the Elder reported. "They suggest that we come up with some ground rules for the realm and our disciples can benefit more from working together rather than working against each other."
