The group had had enough time together to know that the Ronin that traveled with them was rather fond of hunting and slaying monsters, and was familiar enough with the Shadowlands that they might have some hints about his heritage... but not his exact reason for bearing no family or clan markings on anything he bore. Even his heirloom was actually devoid of family and clan markings; it simply had the jade inlaid in it.<br/><br/>And to date, he had never used it to take a human life. To do so would be to profane the Trollkiller; a weapon meant for monster-killing, and never the taking of human life. Though as Hirohide-Sama spoke, he wondered if it might not be a fitting tool to put an end to the life of this Michiru.<br/><br/>...But, it seemed, they would be splitting up. "We are to take Keinosuke alive, then?" The Zanbato clattered against his red lacquered armor; both items were Wargear, and it made the Ronin stand out like a sore thumb. People might be used to samurai walking around with their daisho, but this was... what Kenshin had on was excessive.<br/><br/>"If they've split up, they might be reuniting at some point in the future; if they haven't already." He said to Shizuka. "The larger the group, the easier it is to follow. A single person can disappear where two would be noticed."<br/><br/>"Has the Crab clan been informed of the murder?"
