The capital of the newborn nation was making headways, with various workers from all walks of life trying to construct the dream of their unknown benefactor with precision and the quality demanded from them. However, the capital was not the only thing being built, for underneath the noses of all those of the former sunagakure or rather the former land of wind, something was being built under the already completed structure of what is supposed to be the capital's science and research division.
Her time as an ANBU captain and her knowledge of the secrets of Konoha had gotten Lamya the idea to use the blueprints of the land of fire's largest Black ANBU hideout as an example for her own more obscure research and development. It was an underground place were the less savory and less morally correct research would be conducted and where all those opposing her would no doubt find a fitting and brutal end.
For now though, the only thing finished were the first level and the entrance underneath the medical facility, still work was progressing quite nicely and simply by having a few officials run through the operations on a daily basis kept her on top of everything.
The debacle in Kumogakure no Sato was still fresh in her mind, small groups of bandits and dissidents had to be dealt with and the knowledge that the other nations and hidden villages with their limited information would be rather interested in quickly taking over her fledgling nation meant that she was constantly occupied with various dealings and missions. Yet even so, Lamya did not despair, her own forces were mobile and eager enough to make sure her project worked, especially since they had a lot of their own future riding on it.
Her Kishin forces were numerous and as long as she had them, she was fairly certain she could take on almost any threat, but the clock was ticking and time wasn't on her side.
There were rumors about her uncle having built up his own forces again and making moves again, the looming threat of a worldwide war with Hastur's insatiable ambitions and the ever present threat of hunters coming for her head made matters worse. However, she did not yet feel the breath of fear and death down her neck, in fact she felt motivated by the adversity and the threat on her life and that of her own ambition. It was a feeling long lost, which had now returned in full. The feeling of being alive and the feeling of finally being able to prove her superiority.
Wearing her signature black helmet with the golden rebreather, her black armor, black catsuit and high heeled, knee-high boots, the rogue shinobi was inspecting the progress of her capital's foundation. The workforce had finally started working on the imperial palace itself, so she could soon relocate from the musty old halls of the wooden feudal palace to this new stronghold which would stand as a symbol of her power. The creation of the massive glass yamata no Orochi was well underway as well, acting as a symbol of the nation's liberation and its fear.
Surrounded by a dozen of the Kishin shinobi, dressed in black attire with a Ryujin symbol on their back, veiled and armed they stood as her guards, her enforcers, her shadow. She stood on a small wooden platform, two government officials discussing the progress with her, while a single member of the Kishin forces arrived and relayed to her that the "student" she had been waiting for, had been spotted near the borders of the desert. "Bring her to me...Should she ask any confirmation, tell her that as long as the crow can't fly, the snake devours them."
