*A small building out of the way of a road a mile out of town with a well out back and a small pond in front. This home looks very ordinary to all passers but the man inside is quite the opposite. Xu Huang came to live in the neutral area to be away from the 'Lords' that covet their own land so much. None had impressed him with virtue or courage so he went to live alone. Taking care of his body by training with the Harbinger blade can sometimes draw a crowd but he shrugs them off. Be sure to knock before entering for Neutral territory is always popular with bandits.*

Xiahou Dun arrives at Xu Huang's house. He stays mounted on his horse as he walks around Xu Huang's estate.
"So...this is where the primal and savage barbarian they call Xu Huang lives. Hmph...this house is not fit for a barbarian. It looks more refined. Xu Huang, show yourself!"
Xiahou Dun waits to see if anyone answers.

Xu Huang was taking care of his home and polishing Harbinger when he heard a yell. 'Who calls a man out of his own home?' Xu thought. Placing Harbinger alongside the doorframe Xu opened his door. He did not walk more than a step out for fear of ambush. He saw Xiahou Dun.
"Hmm...What brings the mighty One eyed General to my home? A pleasant visit or a demand for arms?"

"Hmmm...What I see fools me. The guard said this man was savage, yet I see a man who has class."
Xiahou Dun approaches Xu Huang, who apprehensively steps backward.
"Do not be alarmed, I come here bearing gifts. You have caught master Cao Cao's eye. He wishes to bring you bag to Xu Chang where you will serve as one of his top generals."
Xiahou Dun places out his hand, wishing to seal the deal with a handshake.

*Xu was worried now. He had heard of Cao Cao. He respected the man for the strength he ruled his kingdom with but he was also one to be feared. Xu had come to the countryside to avoid war but it had followed him here with campaigns against the bandits of the area. The question was is this the lord he wished to serve. 'Ah why not?' he thought. War would find him soon again might as well be on a side. Stepping forward Xu looked at Xiahou Dun.*
"I have heard of your lord. You can see that I have a semi peaceful life here. The chaos between the kingdoms does not guarantee that. Your lord has the promise to be a great one so serving him would be the wise thing to do. I believe it is time for Xu Huang to walk into the world of combat again."
*Xu reached up and shook Xiahou Dun's hand.*

"A very wise move Xu Huang. Move to Xu Chang with your belongings as soon as you can. I bid you leave for now."
Xiahou Dun honorably bows to Xu Huang. He then mounts his horse and leaves.

*Xu Huang walked back into his home. 'I believe I was manipulated into a corner. Good thing I don't own that much.' he thought. Walking through his home he collected a small pack of food and items he thought he needed. Slinging this on his back he picked up Harbinger and set off for Xu Chang.*

Why was this moved to Cheng Du? Xu Huang has now taken residency in Wei...
<<Ok, it's in Wei now>>

*Xu Huang arrived at home. He made sure he fixed it up the same way he had it in the boundaries. Walking inside he relaxed for the first time in awhile. After a few days a messenger arrived with a message for him*
