Selyse strode through the Land of Earth wearing her black cloak and hood, covering her face in case anyone would see and notice her. The spear was tucked into her bag now, folded away. A hidden weapon. All of her items came along with her for the journey -- everything that she had grabbed as she fled the Shadowlands. As she came to the coast of the Land of Earth, Selyse found a rough set of docks and waited until she saw a rather shadey-looking galley drift into the Bay of Dharma. She talked to the captain and convinced him to let her ride for free as long as she was quiet.

Selyse spent most of her days below deck in her cabin, keeping true to her word. She'd told the captain that she meant to dock in the Land of Sound. She was used to ships, or at least Valerys was since she'd grown up as a child on the docks, so the trip did not bug her. Occasionally, Selyse would come out to the deck in order to look at the moon and stars. She seemed to sense something up there as of late.

The weather agreed with them most of the trip, running through a small storm just as they were coming into the Bay of Sangha. But they trailed through it easy and within a short time, Selyse knew that she would be looking on the banks of Sound. It had been too long since she'd visited her hidden dojo in these lands... but now she valued the trip. Selyse knew that she would need to master some new techniques if she hoped to follow through with her plots.

Having made it to her destination by ship, Selyse said goodbye to the captain and made her way to the docks. As she did, she pulled the hood over her face and didn't let anyone see her as she made her way into the fields. It was time to start her mission.

As Valerys was making her way past a flooded field of rice paddies, she allowed her appearance to transform -- her hair turned white, and her stature a bit shorter, her eyes turned a light violet -- and all of a sudden she appeared as Shihana, the Kazekage that she had once been. Although that had been years ago. She made her way, slowly and at peace, across the Land of Sound. She had been here a long time and got to know the land and its people.

When she got to the coast, she looked long and hard for a ship. The docks were deserted nowadays, not as many people traveling. But lo and behold, she did discover (far off) the old captain that had once brought her here -- so long ago. "You brought me here long ago. I thought you would have been off," Shihana said to him. He would not recognize her. She had come here as Selyse.

"I go where the trade takes me," he said, but there seemed to be less trade in this days. She asked if she could bother him to take her to the Land of Wind. Although normally he might have refused, he seemed as if he remembered something about the girl. Finally he agreed and he and Shihana were off, out of the same bay where she had appeared in the Land of Sound. Except this time, she was going home.

Shihana peered over the bow of the ship as they quickly approached the coast of the Land of Wind. "Oh how lovely," she whispered, while inside felt a great longing to return to her home. When the ship docked, she said a few king words to the captain -- who had been near her all these years. She wondered if she would ever see him again.

Disembarking from the craft, she made her way into the hot, arid desert. My God, she thought, I'm home afterall.
