The encampment of the young Daimyo of Lingxue, ignite with activity, as the sky explodes into celebration. Fireworks glow over the mountains and across the plains, drums beginning to echo, shamisen and flute weaving throughout the air, and laughter rolling across the fields of snow. The scent of grilled foods, rice wine, and many other meals travel for miles. Servants hurry with platters, Samurai toast with overflowing cups of sake, the spirit of festivity truly fills the air. In the center, the young Daimyo himself Mitsumo Shinjitsu Irontail, now Daimyo of Stonehaven at the age of 18 raises his cup to his gathered people.

This news has spread far and widely across the lands of Meranthe: Stonehaven has a new ruler..

The caravans that were once stationed at the encampments now come from the snow plains, and toward the fortress city, their banners fluttering in the cold wind. Many of the dwarven population of Stonehaven welcoming them with open arms, intrigued and delighted by the customs and spirits the Xuefeng/Shengese people bring. Dwarven brews mix with Xuefeng sake. Old forging songs blending with Shengese flutes and drums. Redesigns are made, new buildings constructed and the forges set to master Katana making, all while laughter and cheers carries through the cavern halls. A new age for the north, one of peace, prosperity, and order. Many bright days lie ahead for Stonehaven under Daimyo Mitsumo Shinjitsu Irontail.

.
The once grey walls of the Dwarven Keep are washed with the iconic red hues of the Sheng.
For most of the dwarves, having spent their lives in miserable slavery, politics was a foreign concept;
They yet understand what truly had occurred, trusting in the decision of Daggar Crownforge.
Happiness spread and curiosities expand upon the novel Sheng culture,
However, who knows how long will that last?
.
And the question of whether they will accept it, be subsumed by it... or outright reject it remains too soon to be answered.
Great caution is advised to Daimyo by the holder of the Crownforge Standard.

The Dwarves are not 'His' people.
Not yet.
