By the boats coming into view from the vast sea, they carried exported and imported goods both of which could be viewed as either material goods and shall we say personnel goods. Most of the elongated boats floated to port were manned by smart and witty crew members so that they could guarantee safe passage of merchants, diplomats and common folk who need to travel to far away places. 
Shuanna on the other hand was an' outsider who had been granted permission to travel through the Asiatic countries as it is said that she bears a gift for the king of this land in order to establish trade and a business relationship with her country, so in a way she was also an ambassador. Her beauty was unusual. Sometimes too unusual. She stood out against the normally dark brown haired natives with rather stark white, fine hair that hung down to her thighs and was brought together at the end by its own knot. Her eyes were a mixture of saturated magenta pink and periwinkle blue to make a subtle lilac color. Her skin was frail as well as it wasn't quite porcelain white but it was the most difficult to pin down. Generally one could just lump it into the category of white, but the way that the light brought out subtle highlights of rose pink and tints of an almost bluish grey in shadows just made her seem almost opalescent. It was hard but sometimes mesmerizing to describe. 

As Shuanna got off the boat she had to move with a cloak over her face as she was escorted off the docks and through the towns. The cloak was a vibrant red with gold embroidery which would bring out much of her face. In her hands she held a box tightly a long with her royal permission pass to enter this new world.
