The Officer looks at you in disgust " Stay out of this, brute. "
OOC: I'm unclear who this was addressed to. Also, where in Shou Lung are we? Because the Dragonwall isn't anywhere near a port city, at least officially.
Depicting the emperor in that way is making Liu Bao having mixed emotions, in one way he despises that the supreme leader is not taking action in favor of it's countryman, even if he is above all else, but HE is the emperor and the emperor must have it's reasons or it's being misguided by said woman Han Zhou is refering.
OOC: Since I'm in the court does Liu Bao know of the woman he talks about? He should have seen or heard something....
The woman is the sister of a official in court, named Yan Xie Ling, she is the emperors most precious wife. His brother, Yan Kai Xan, is probably corrupt. Most officials do not like Yan Xie Ling because they think she is distracting the emperor from more important matters.

You are in a port town of Wak'An ( Also, it is 1496 DR, so the dragon wall is a second one built after the Spell plague. This one said to imprison the spirit of 5 dragons.)
Bazahk stars down the guard for a moment then shrugs. "I dont much care one way or the other." As soon as it seems like the guards wont stop him, he will leave and go looking for an inn.

OOC: I would like to request that you quote someone, or otherwise indicate who an NPC is talking to. Just to make it easier to follow.
Li FongOFF Solider: "That may all be true. But the corrupt wish to maintain their power, and they can't do that if the Horde destroys them. They will stand with us just to save their own skins."
OFFLiu Bao: "Where is your acquaintance? I will help them and our other guests find a secure place to stay. Perhaps they can be persuaded to join in the city's defense."
Li Fong OFF Liu Bao: "Very well, Officer Liu. I will intercept our two other guests, and see if perhaps I can enlist their help. If you give me a description of your acquaintance, and perhaps some papers indicating to her that I am acting on your behalf, I would be happy to escort all of them to safe lodgings."
Li Fong waves at Bazahk and Father Cadfrey. In fluent Common, he calls out, "Well met, august visitors! Welcome to Wak'an! May I be of humble assistance?"
Bazakh and Father Cadfrey see a Shou human, presenting male, around age 30, and weighing about 155 lbs, smiling broadly at them. He is dressed in clean, fashionable, but well-worn street clothes typical of an upper-class city person. He is unarmored, but carries an impressive spear. And has a gourd of wine slung across his chest with a leather strap.
Seeing the man wave and hearing him speak common, Father Cadfrey seems to be a bit at ease.
"That would be wonderful kind sir." he states, "I am a simple scholar just arrived in your country and I am looking for an inn to get a room for a few nights. Could you please make a recommendation?" he asks.
Bazahk looks Li Fong up and down before responding. "Just looking for an inn to rest and get a drink, and maybe find some mercenary work."
Li Fong OFF Bazahk: "Sellswords, eh? Well, your timing is most auspicious! It seems our city is being locked down because the Tuigan have breached the Dragonwall. There will be plenty of work for sellswords in the days to come. Yes, most auspicious!"
Li Fong will either follow Liu Bao to the dock so he can retrieve Liu Bao's acquaintance, and then lead all three of the visitors to safe lodging in the city; or,
if Liu Bao will meet his acquaintance instead, then Li Fong will simply lead Bazakh and Father Cadfrey to safe lodging, and leave word with Liu Bao about where to meet up after he concludes his business at the dock.
Well, Liu Bao said he is looking for the harbormaster. I assume he has to head to the docks for that, which is where I assume his acquaintance was going to be. So, I'm trying to find out if he's going to go ahead and meet his acquaintance, anyway?
Father Cadfrey is about to finish signing in to the inn when you see the orc from the street lining up behind you, as soon as he spots the orc, the reception says " We serve no monster. "

Liu Bao: " Right now, we need to help our country and that what matters, so please help us secure the harbor exists."

Liu Bao OFF Li Fong : "She just arrived to the harbor on that ship. I can introduce you two."
Liu Bao will take Li Fong to her when possible.

Seeing the man wave and hearing him speak common, Father Cadfrey seems to be a bit at ease.
"That would be wonderful kind sir." he states, "I am a simple scholar just arrived in your country and I am looking for an inn to get a room for a few nights. Could you please make a recommendation?" he asks.
The soldier who was talking to Li Fong shrugs and walks away.
Bazahk looks Li Fong up and down before responding. "Just looking for an inn to rest and get a drink, and maybe find some mercenary work."
Li Fong OFF Bazahk: "Sellswords, eh? Well, your timing is most auspicious! It seems our city is being locked down because the Tuigan have breached the Dragonwall. There will be plenty of work for sellswords in the days to come. Yes, most auspicious!"
So are any of you ready to take a course of action?
Liu Bao is gonna look for the harbormaster to say the orders to close the harbor: "No one enters, no one exits until further orders!"

what about everyone else?
Li Fong will either follow Liu Bao to the dock so he can retrieve Liu Bao's acquaintance, and then lead all three of the visitors to safe lodging in the city; or,
if Liu Bao will meet his acquaintance instead, then Li Fong will simply lead Bazakh and Father Cadfrey to safe lodging, and leave word with Liu Bao about where to meet up after he concludes his business at the dock.
So... what do you do first?
Well, Liu Bao said he is looking for the harbormaster. I assume he has to head to the docks for that, which is where I assume his acquaintance was going to be. So, I'm trying to find out if he's going to go ahead and meet his acquaintance, anyway?
Liu Bao's acquaintance is a half elf in a tight black leather jumpsuit. She is sitting on a barrel of wine and looking impatient.
