As she touched his scratched iron mask, he leaned on the hand and sighed. He nodded on her offer and let her undress him. So far his armor and clothes were soaked in blood, but besides that there was no serious injuries. Shallow cut here and there which had already wearing bright red scar tissue. Once naked he with groan stood up, speaking quietly; "...it was seriously bad battle, I should had respected the omens when I saw it. Dark clouds, smell of blood, wind wailing like widow. But like fool I pressed on." Then once he reached the baths he groaned again, this time in delight as tension in muscles started loosen up, his arms and legs shaking from after echo from fierce hours lasting battle and fleeing as he continued; "Still pressed on, in end not get the keep and Yamashita made last charge on keep to secure my escape. I may have lost a valuable retainer as well besides thousands of troops.<strong>For a mere bandits!</strong>" Takeda with shout and growl slammed his clenched fist against edge of the bathtub, the brass bathtub releasing dull *bong* on his fist hitting the edge. His hand and fist are both shaking as is his rest body, mixture from fatigue, anger and adrenaline still in his veins. He sighs and adds; "I have failed today as daimyo of Gunba clan, there is no denying it."
