As the courier arrived and asked about her identity, Hua Li steadied her hammer. Once he had confirmed her identity, she received a letter. It revealed to be a mission of its own, requesting her to engineer something new. A communication device of sorts, for long distances. A challenge for sure, for Hua Li wasn't all too certain just yet how to go about that. Furthermore, the mission seemed to be of some importance considering this new invention was to include two kage. Whatever they had planned, she couldn't say, but at least it gave her some idea of what purpose it'd serve. A long distance contact between the two Villages... Quite an ambitious idea.
Having read the letter, a spark of wind chakra shredded the paper to dust before the kijo blew it away with her breath to have it scattered with the wind. She then continued to finish the last rings of her second chain mail in peace, mind mulling over the idea they had requested from her. A communication device. She had a couple of draft ideas. She scratched them. Too cumbersome. Too much material intensive. With every new ring attached to the chain mail, she found a new reason to scrap her initial idea and shape it into something different. By the time the second chain mail was finished, she had a working idea. It'd require some testing, some adjusting, but it was a feasible prototype if anything.
"I'll return swiftly. I have some matters to attend to.", she told the owner of the forge, who nodded slightly confused. What else was he to say. Her presence was already a blessing to his forge, rumours spreading like a wildfire as many believed he had hired a Tengu to improve upon his quality. Less was true, but the Tengu cared none for the gossip of Kiri's civilians, nor for the reputation of others. She was simply making sure she wouldn't waste away in boredom.
As she was already at the market district, her absence would be short. Swift movement and prior investigation of the area allowed her to quickly recall what goods she could buy up where. Some copper, some silicon, a couple of manufactured technologies. She had all she needed to start her first attempts at the prototype plan she had designed in her mind.
