Ana has breakfast with her father. "Are you ready for this morning's meeting?"
"Yes." answered Ana briefly.
"Are you going to attend the meeting?" ask Ana.
Father nodded. "But, if you believe you can face them alone, then I don't need to attend."
Getting such an answer, Ana asked again. "Didn't you believe me?"
"Of course I believe you. I don't trust them about this. Careful. They've got a lot of tricks to slash your power" his father said.
"good. I'll remember. But I want Uncle Taban and Dad to attend the meeting, as sons of the previous leader," Ana said firmly.
"Dad will call him to get ready. And I think you have a plan." Ivan smiled at Ana who was very confident.
"Yes" answered Ana briefly.

The first meeting of Anastasia as Clan Leader, was attended by all the clan Elders who were also concurrently as advisors. Also the assistants and supervisors of clan policy implementers.
Ana sits on a podium that is not too high. On the left and right, there was his father and his father's half-sister. Ana asked the two of them to sit there as the former Clan Leader before her. Then there is also Nathalie who has been asked to be her secretary for a while. The girl sat slightly behind Ana.
At the front, stood opposite the elders as well as the clan advisors. After that, there are other assistants and staff.
The host rang the bell, the sign of the event began, after Ana nodded her head.
"It's time to listen to the reports from the staff. Starting from the right!" ana's orders.
The incoming reports that Ana thinks are very ordinary. Ana is not very interested. But he asked Nathalie to take note of the important points of their report.
After all the turn, then the turn of the advisors to submit their reports. Ana took it seriously. And like before, the report is also very good.
After all finished reporting each other's tasks, Ana cleared her throat. Now it's his turn to talk. After checking Nathalie's notes for a moment, Ana turned to everyone present. He took out a few pieces of paper that he had been working on earlier this morning.
"All the reports coming in look good. I'll check it out later straight to the field," he said.
"Now I want to sort out overlapping positions. The elders will return to their position as respected elders, without being burdened again with all the routine affairs of the clan. Then I'll raise a new advisor. So there are no more double departments. Each focused on his duties and positions alone."
Ana looked to her right and left. "Uncle Taban and Dad will be my new advisors. I don't need a lot of advisors. Enough people who are in line and like-minded," said Ana.
A humming sound began to be heard in the room. Ana tapped a small hammer on her desk to make them calm down again.
"Next, I will make a new policy." Ana continued her words. The participants of the meeting waited for what surprise the girl would throw.
"The clan people who are outside. Permission to return to the clan. To the extent that he had never betrayed the clan, he could simply come here or settle back in the land of this clan!"
The buzzing sounds became more boisterous than before. But Ana doesn't care much about it.
"If anyone doesn't want to listen, please get out of the room and never come back here again!" ana said firmly.
Instantly the room became quiet. They sat quietly and obediently, as Ana raised her ring. The girl shook her head dislikefully.
"Are you guys always making a fuss like this? Just now as you guys were talking, I listened quietly and asked Nathalie to take down all her important points. Why is it that when I talk you guys are always noisy? I haven't even finished explaining it!" ana was angry.
"How can this clan be respected by the other party, if your attitude is like this? Reluctant to listen to the opinions of the other party who wanted to advance the clan, was an extremely careless attitude! I will change things that hinder the clan's progress. If you are not happy or disagree, please get out of here! I can't work with people like that!"
Silent room. No one moved from his seat. Ana looked at them once more.
"Now I will continue," said Ana.
"People who have left the clan without permission, are allowed to return. However, it could only stay at the border of the clan, at the foot of the mountain. We will ask them to build a new village at the foot of the mountain and work on land that has been neglected. The results should be divided according to the detailed calculations that will be discussed later."
"The purpose of bringing them back was to enlarge the clan which I saw at a glance, its population was very few. And one more thing, not everyone is suitable to live on the top of the mountain!"
"Other than that, the main goal is to strengthen our border areas. If all this time only guarded by a few guards who patrol alternately, then with the population, the border will automatically become stronger. Existing residents, will help the guards, guard our territory!"
Ana looked at the people and waited for their reaction. They just look at each other. I don't understand, I don't know.
"That's all I need to say. Other things will follow later.
Ana gave some sheets of paper she had prepared. Asking Natalie to type, print and circulate her decision on the other clan members out there.
Ana and her entourage exit the meeting room. His father and uncle drove to a workspace that had been tidied up and reorganized by Nathalie.
"You're my right hand here." Ana hugged Nathalie's shoulder. The twins were happy.
"A very good room. There's a lot of decoration here." Ana sees a ceiling-high glass shelf placed as a room divider with an area where she can receive guests or tea breaks.
"That is all the gifts given by other heads of state in the heyday of our clan. Before the uprising took place" his uncle explained.
"I'm glad uncle is willing to help build our clan," Ana said sincerely.
"That's my father's message. As a child, I had to obey. I'm just a temporary leader that my father trusted to keep looking for Brother Erden" his uncle explained.
"And the search for uncle was not in vain. We are all together again as a family. Thank you, Uncle." Ana nodded her head slightly to show her respect, The man smiled faintly.
"Then, where's father and uncle's room?" ask Ana.
"Let the advisors clean their room first. After that we just choose our own room," said his father.
"Or find another room that is still empty" said Nathalie.
"If there is still an empty room, use it. Later the former room of the advisors, we make another room. I still have a lot of plans. But before, wanting to see the real state of the clan members out there."
