To people who didn't know any better, the city of Havershum was a peaceful place to live.  Sure, there were all the dangers of living in a large city; pickpockets and whatnot in the streets, and the occasional robbery or mugging in the bad places, but those all seemed less common here than in other places.<br/><br/>To those who did know better, however, the city was quite dangerous.  While those who keep clean from the shady side of things have nothing to worry about, the city's underworld is controlled by six ninja clans, each fighting each other for dominance over the city.  One of them, Clan Feyalvum, also known as the Fox Ninja Clan, has had tough times.  Their largest rival, the Bunny Ninja Clan Mikinas, had begun to work more openly against them, forming alliances with some of the other clans to shut down Clan Feyalvum's operations.<br/><br/>Thankfully, the geisha house that acts as a front for most of the clan's activities hadn't been targeted yet.  Unfortunately, it likely wouldn't remain as such for long, as there were already reports of some enemy ninjas scouting the area.
