::This spectacular mansion is of very traditional construction, at least from the outside. It sits in south Yokohama, on it's own fifty acre manicured oriental garden. Staff bustle through the mansion at all hours. A small army of attendants, assistants, gardeners, guards, drivers, and all manner of other servants constantly tend to the grounds. The perimeter is heavily patrolled by formally dressed Yakuza gangmen, and, strangely, a group of uniformed police officers seems to control the main gate. Within the compound, which is oriented around a central courtyard of cherry trees, the Geisha school is kept, where young women learn the ancient and venerable arts of entertainment. Soft shamisen strings and soothing lyrics echo out of the geisha chambers. The sub levels are rather dramatic, and would be where business takes place. Mister Go, a yakuza enforcer, minor league sumo wrestler, and personal bodyguard, seems very preoccupied with arranging the mansion for it's new masters arrival. Once he has pestered everyone as much as they can tolerate, he relegates himself to sitting in a gazebo among the cherry trees, studying english language tapes.::
