One of her maids hurried over shutting the screens quickly. "Lady Denka.. you will catch a cold. Sickness if bad for the baby." The older woman smiled down to the young lady in the silver mask. Rumors swirled about who she had been before coming to Takeda's castle. About why she wore the mask, maybe she had been badly burned, perhaps she was a general in the war and had taken a blow to the face? It seemed to longer she wore it tho the less people cared. They cared more about the woman below it. The woman who had built the tribute to their fallen. The woman who had overseen their lands when Daimyo Gunba had been at battle. The woman who would carry his name in just a few hours.<br/><br/><br/>Standing from the small stool she sat on she looked down at her stomach, it was still flat and unnoticeable at the moment but she knew soon it would show. Dressed in her very best kimono the pink silk wrapped around her pale body with a white obi binding her tiny waist. She smiled towards the woman who seemed to concerned over her safety. "Thank you Mira-san." So many her whole life mistook her softness for weakness, even Midori. But with Takeda had shown her her strength. In a matter of days she would ride to the shrine and ask them to bless the sword that she had made as a gift to her new husband.<br/><br/><br/>Moving towards the gardens of the castle Emiko smiled as she saw the priest from the Gunba clan waiting. It would be a very small ceremony only Takeda, Emiko and the Priest but it would be enough to bless their union with the ancestors and ensure their son's eventual accent into his father's linage.
