The Third War had ended not even a year after his birth, allowing him to grow up in a time of peace. As it was the most recent war, the Academy had told them about it first. But even as he took a few moments to recall any information regarding Kirigakure in the aftermath, little came to mind. Whatever it was, Neji doubted it Kajiki had any good reason to be within their borders. The Jounin mentally added it into his note to Yamato.
"It has it's own charm, as they all do," he agreed instead. "To think that not all that long ago, visitors were met with open hostility if they strayed into foreign borders even with official clearance. I imagine it made negotiations like these particularly difficult."
The shadow of the Hokage tower loomed, and Neji lifted his hand in a mild wave for the guards stationed outside. He kept his eyes from wandering to the unseen guards, well aware of their positions without the aid of the Byakugan now that he'd occupied them himself a few times.
He turned to Kajiki with an apologetic look. "However, that doesn't mean security measures aren't still in place. Please wait here, Hoshigaki-san. I'll be back in a moment."
With that, Neji left him out with the entrance guards and trusted any further implicit warnings to them. He ducked in the building, and it was a simple matter to hand over the scroll and provide a brief explanation of it's origin and intent. He took another moment to scrawl down an informative note to be delivered to the Hokage whenever Obito had the time to read it, and returned outside within the span of a few minutes.
"It seems we'll be playing host for three days or so, Hoshigaki-san. I'll make sure all your arrangements are made, but as you mentioned an interest in eating, we may as well see to that first."
