Description: Some traders, who make constant rounds from the capital to the ninja village, have requested that a ninja accompany them, to help deal with the snow and harsh conditions as well as any potential bandits.

OOC:: Due to the nature of this mission being a sort of travel, i'll have 2 posts in this thread, one leaving and one returning, and the rest in the transiting to the capital and back.

              Muu stood on the brink of his mission, prepared for nearly anything. Or so he thought to himself as he walked to the meeting point and the start of his journey. He was to meet Old man Masato, who was the merchant envoy sent between the shinobi village and the capital frequently. Nearing the gates with the snow gently falling around him, Muu spotted him quickly, directing men this way and that prepping his caravan. 

Muu approached him and even through his duties to setting his caravan, the old man didn't miss a beat.
"So you're all the great Hidden Snow is giving me?! They said a young man with green hair but what they meant was a child! Worthless, you're gonna be more trouble then your worth."

Muu's lazy demeanor was undisturbed by the insults. He was use o being underestimated, and in many instances it'd worked out for him. But he was just as eager to get this little trip underway so he addressed the old man without looking at him, instead eyeing the men hard at working to prepare for the trip.
"What are we taking to the capital?"

The old man peered at him hard with one eye, then gave his gruff answer.
"Do you know nothing? We brought goods to the village this trip! We're taking back a sizeable chunk of money and then returning, fully loaded with goods once more. Sure you're ready for this? It's not to late to back out and get us a real shinobi escort."

Muu shrugged, now he at least knew the plan, everything else would be all about timing and watching for a problem. Muu climbed into one of the carriages and reached for the door, before looking at the old man,
"Just get us moving Old Man."

Muu Closed the door on that note and took a seat, resting his eyes and listening to the commotion for the workers finishing their tasks. It would be just a little while before he'd hear the old man shouting the orders to dead out of the gates, the normal searches being conducted and then the steady sound of hooves and casual talks of the men in company. Their trip had finally begun.
