The Ninja Hidden by the Leaves

Rokku had gathered everything he could carry, his family had already begun the move but had chosen not to inform Rokku's younger siblings why and a great tension had been felt throughout the village once the decision had been announced to abandon the village and relocate. The long disappearance of the Otokage had been kept well hidden and was a great surprise once formally announced and caused no small amount of stir in the village. Rokku had remained a little longer behind than the civilians who chose to begin the journey and had been selected as one of the few remaining shinobi to act as a form of vanguard to assist in building a new suitable village. Rokku was uncertain precisely where he was travelling but knew he was supposed to meet another shinobi in the forest of silence. At the designated spot he waited for the other shinobi to arrive.

Striding towards the front, the Forgemaster who took on the reigns of leadership to lead the people of the Land of Sky and Wind forward towards the bright future that they had planned out meticulously for the residents who were to relocate. "I thank you all! As the Nidaime Otokage. As a native to this land. As a blacksmith and as a shinobi!" Quinn shouted outward to the group of people who accepted the call to aim forward toward progress. "Let us showcase our desires. Let us bring harmony to new lands." They finished speaking, moving forward and onward to their new destination.

Rokku followed his new Otokage and colleague who he considered a good friend in the village. The promotion was not entirely surprising considering their rapid growth and Rokku wondered if it was a deliberate choice to pick a new kage that was stable and dependable as the anvil  they hammered upon each day. Rokku could think of no one else as measured, confident and unyielding as Quinn so the role made a certain kind of sense. Rokku was somewhat sad however that it would likely take some time for normality to be restored and many of the villagers embarking would be required to adapt to an entirely new environment.

Rokku pushed aside his worries and followed his Otokage as they set off to lands unknown.
