So, this was the Village Hidden in the clouds, huh? Seem like… almost the same as Konoha, save for the slight trouble he was having breathing. This high altitude was a bit much for him, but he was determined to see his mission through.

As the male made his way through the streets of Kumo, he could not help but look around in a state of wonder; this village was beautiful. The Lion had never been to Kumogakure no Sato before in his life, not even to Lightning Country in general for a mission, so this place was a sight to behold. The architecture was a sight to behold, and for a brief moment, he could understand why Amaya had chosen to go to this major hidden village as opposed to a minor village. There was a certain beauty in this place, something he could get behind…

Reaching up to tuck a strand of hair behind his ear, the Lion carried himself casually through the streets of Kumo. He had arrived the night before, and after getting himself settled in a hotel and a decent night’s sleep, he had awoken refreshed and ready to take on the mission of the day; locating Amaya. This was no official mission of Konohagakure no Sato, and as such, he was not here as a shinobi. While that was the case, it was suicide to believe that the male was unarmed. Hidden somewhere on his personage, there was always an arsenal of equipment, just waiting to be used. While the shinobi of this village were not hostile toward him (at the moment), bandits were never as friendly, and wanted more money than he cared to carry on him. And besides, it was not like the Lion looked like he was particularly wealthy; he was dressed in a simple ensemble of a dark haori over hakama and wooden getta.

As the male moved through the streets, he came to the slow realization that he had no clue how to find Amaya… This check-up was impromptu, spur of the moment, and she had no idea he was coming, or even had arrived. Perhaps he could start by asking around…?
