The sun had littered the area underneath with a dazzling light. Today was particularly peculiar; everything seemed to be oozing with additional energy as though their inner passions had been kindled with more logs than ever before.
The messenger was a short guy, as they always seemed to be, with powerful legs. Those little legs of his had carried him great distances over the world, thither and back. He wouldn't give them up for the world. Recently he had an additional pep to his step because of the message that he was bringing to bear to all the villages already known throughout the world.
Koten Tekishijin was just leaving the Kage Tower with his most recently assigned mission papers, which was for his first C rank mission ever, when he had come across the path of the messenger. "A message, a message, for one and for all. Please bring the Umikage out of those walls!" He called in a catchy rhythm Tekishi was sure he had memorized and altered at every village he came into, if need be. Kage and walls just seemed to go together, the illusion of the slight rhyme persisted as it would now and forever.
Tekishi, being of no rush to get back down to the docks where the C rank mission he had just taken would direct him, stopped and waited to see what was going on.
The Umikage enters from the Kage Tower in his robe.
"From the messenger, me, to the most brilliant and world renown Umikage! I wanted to inform you personally that there has been a return of sorts. Not by any one person but of a Village! A Village in its entirety with all of the people that had been living in it as it disappeared! Or is it the generations of children they left behind? Mysterious such as these and others have yet to be discovered. It is up to the shinobi of the world over, Shippugakure no Sato included, to visit Heiwagakure and figure it out!"
The messenger through up an upheaval of papers that, at first, protruded up into the sky like graduation caps after the boring procedural stuff had finally given way to the relinquish of the graduates; then, they would all flutter back to the ground, much like those same graduates who would quickly come to find out that being a shinobi meant work, missions, and more work. Rarely if ever did they get time to play, nor did most of them see their training and time improving themselves as shinobi as play time.
The messenger skipped up in the air without any forward or backward movement, then bounded off in the direction he came. He had come to do what he had done: made Shippugakure no sato aware of the presence of Heiwagakure no Sato, thus opening the door for these shinobi to take part in the proceedings of this newly rediscovered village.
