Yamigakure. The village hidden in darkness.
Although sunrise had hit the land of Moon, light did not tend to make it to this small hidden valley, nestled on the mountainside of Mount Tsukigari. The Myakashi had taken over what had remained of an old monastery dedicated to Raiden, and with the use of chakra dug into the mountainside, created a small village of less than 100 people. The constant darkness had made it difficult to cultivate crops, but the presence of those skilled in Yamanaka techniques thanks to Doku and his kin had overcome these difficulties, cultivating numerous plants that thrived in the darkness. A water channel had been carved since Migoya had arrived several years ago, brining mountain-fresh water to the small village - something the old sage Hisao had devised. Each of his old brothers had contributed to the growth of this village, and now it thrived. It was self-sufficent, running on an electrical system part water generated and part... well, zombie generated. Security was tighter than a ducks behind, the ever-resent shadows along with the highly trained guards and tsukumogami spirits ensuring that no-one could enter without permission. Several buildings had sprung up since Migoya had left, with various industries taking place - most to do with the shinobi arts. Herbologists, weapon smiths, scroll-makers - each had their trade and craft and sought to excel in it.
The guards had not believed that he would return, after all he had been gone for years, along with all the founding members of the clan. It had been Mikki however that had proven Migoya's identity, as the puppet was extremely well known to everyone in the village, and wouldn't be with anyone else. The guards had also verified his identity and allowed him passage. Soon, word was passed to the village that Myakashi Migoya had indeed returned.
An old woman, bent over with age but eyes sparkling with undeniable wisdom, was the first to call out Migoya's name. "Migoya-sama... you return." A warm smile was her greeting from the armoured shinobi. She shuffled over, her face stern as if she knew exactly what was going on.
"Why?"
A warm embrace followed, for indeed this was his family and he had returned home.
