Mriwha's jade strike catches the minor oni by surprise, smashing into it's flank and sending it screeching across the floor and out of sight. From inside come the sound of claws on wood .. it would seem there are more of them there. ((Initiatives for everyone please))<br/><br/>- - - - -<br/><br/>Whatever the Thunder Guard was about to say, the sight of the jade orb of an Imperial Magistrate changes his tone. He visably straightens and makes a small bow. "Hai, Magistrate-sama." You pass him by, and enter the building, the voices inside becoming clearer.<br/><br/>"... don' understand, Dokiu-san. My fathers shipments for the festival were in these crates, and look at them now! They ruined! How can we take these to the festival?" The two men both wear the mon of the Unicorn clan, the Shinjo family if this is who the Thunder Guard outside spoke off, the smaller and finer dressed of the two gesturing animatedly around him.<br/><br/>The place is indeed a mess. Boxes have been overturned, ans what look like huge claw marks mar others. Fireworks and costume pieces are strewn over every surface. The Unicorn doing all the talking continues in the same vein to his companion, even as you approach.
