The petite lady known as Raikoke stepped in closer to the table of the resplendant room and bowed to their host Hokani.

"Konnichiwa my good friend, I am most gracious for your hospitality."

She then turned to the Emporer before her and bowed.

"Konnichiwa your eminance, it is an honour that you chose to sit at the table with us."

Sitting down at the table, Raikoke accepted the tea with a smile. Holding the cup with the thumbs and index fingers of both hands she raised the cup and took a sip. Her clear approval of the arromatic brew was evident in her closed eyed expression that yielded a satisfied smile.

"Such an absolutely wonderful flavour, my compliments Hokani-san, I must remind myself to set some more personal time. It's been all to rare for me to sit for tea. Arigato."
