I'm thinking maybe his grandfather is saying that he will go into retirement once he has finished making the arrangements for the marriage.  So there is a bit of a time crunch there.  Maybe his grandfather is favoring the Asahina marraige since he has such ties to the Crane.  The marriage would of course bring money, influence and prominence to the line.  I don't know if you wanted to go into much detail about his grandfather at this point or if you had any more ideas about him or the other family members.<br/><br/>Sad to say I also have a couple other ideas.  Like maybe the matchmaker's bodyguard being an older women that wants to show him some things before he is settled down.  Or also maybe a Matsu that wants to bring him to heel.  :: falls over giggling:: Ah...so much fun.  Anyway.  Did you have any ideas for his enemy or did you want me to spitball some stuff?
