Hida Emi growls in anger as the oni bursts into the room!  She's stunned to see an oni this far north of the Carpenter Wall... but fortunately, a Crab is here to oppose the vile beast!  Emi darts towards the alcove where her grandmother's sword rests, seizing the grey hilt of the katana and yanking it free of it's saya.  For a moment, she regrets that she can't run out to the horse and grab her ono, but it can't be helped.  At least she's still wearing her heavy armour.<br/><br/>Emi knows she must draw the beast away from the weaker Cranes, before it kills the helpless members of that Clan.  She must draw it towards her, the only Crab present to stand against its fury.<br/><br/>"Hey, you Spawn of Fu Leng!" Emi taunts the beast, settling her katana into a firm two handed grip.  "I am the Wall!  Leave those Crane alone and try a true child of the Hida!"<br/>
