Beastmen Zombies [E] are very rare in the woods and lakes around the Koyake Clan, but they are occasionally sighted feeding on the dead and dying.

While the Koyake Clan has rich rice fields, not all in the Shogunate are so fortunate. Villages are overran by the hungry dead, beast tides, and cursed with famine among other calamities that can bring otherwise prosperous clans down low. The same can happen to individuals within clans, especially those with little talent and less to offer who fail to find success at banditry or slaving. These vagabonds and outcasts are poor, hungry, and prey for so many predators in the Beastlands that they rarely last long!<br></li></ul>

A little about me. I am new to the Isekai Hell rule system, but I feel like I have a decent grasp on the rules. This is an exercise in exploring the rules while running a game. I really enjoy running games and find myself doing that quite a lot. In fact, I’ve been running games for over 20 years, and I have an Isekai campaign that I want to eventually run in this universe. Before that, I want to run a few one-offs or maybe it’s all tied together. We’ll see.<br></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736444263" style="display: none;"><br>
In reading the rules for Isekai Hell, I have observed that it’s largely deterministic with a rules-lite skeleton to keep things grounded and expectations easier to manage. I am a big fan of players helping to flesh out a scene proactively and without needing to put in endless qualifiers in their posts. As such, I will allow two situations where you can gain a bonus to effectiveness:<br>
<ol>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol">Scene Enhancing Stunt. In Exalted there is a notion of stunting, which allows characters to take their skills and abilities beyond the bounds or at least be creative with them to enhance the story for everyone. While everyone who participates in IH is expected to write well thought out, multiple paragraph posts. A stunt in this sense, builds and enhances the existing scene making everything cooler and more fun. If you do this, you can take a +1 to the effectiveness during the post, limit once per scene.</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol">Something bad happens. If good stuff always happens it gets boring. To support people introducing challenges, adversity, and interest, when a character voluntarily writes their actions failing or otherwise introducing an additional challenge or problem in the scene. Effectively the character is taking a -1 or -2 in the post, to use a +1 or +2 later on. Limit twice per story. Again, the character self-elicits and notes in the OOC if they think it was a -1 or -2 level of badness that happened to them. They can bank the corresponding +1 or +2 for later.</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol"><b>Other Cases.</b> There are other things that could impact effectiveness, such as narrative situation, special ability effects at play, and any other mechanics from the Isekai Hell rules system. You cannot use an ability in combat without an item (as it pertains to dealing damage, special effects, or some form of defense). Actions without abilities treat the ability grade as being worth 0 points.</li>
</ol></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736444264" style="display: none;"><br>
<b>Using skills and narrating success.</b> I would rather bias for pacing and momentum plus IH is designed to be a framework in which stories are made. The emphasis is on stories and pacing is an important component of a story’s success. As such, I’d rather you error on moving the plot forward. I can always introduce a twist or complication to balance things out or help ensure the story remains interesting.<br>
<br>
<i>Scenes will often have a setup like this: </i><br>
<br>
<b>Setting:</b><i> 1-3 paragraphs of flavor text.</i><br>

In the fields around the Shrine of the Fallen Blossom the cherry trees were finally blossoming. This year the risk of a cold snap had nearly killed the blossoms before they could be enjoyed, which would have made the Cherry Blossom Festival next week impossible to have. It was said to be bad luck to celebrate the blossoms after they had fallen. Many outsiders including members of the local Tangu and Tuskar clans were arriving by the hour for the festival.<br>
<br>
Of course secular and economic concerns should not be on the minds of the Fallen Spears, charged with protecting the Shrine and one of the most powerful unit of Samurai the Koyake Clan had to call upon. After the death of Ronginusu no Yari who was the inheritor of the Absolute Terror Field, none possessed the supreme insight into the spear to inherit his full teachings. Thus the clan had fallen and the Fallen Spears were born.<br>
<br>
The field was filled with the natural born initiates of the Fallen Spears, those who sought to gain prestige and privilege through service to the clan by wielding the spear. <a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1668664529053-jpeg.1040820/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/977/977950-96d8099b016d40b7bcfe714baefae538.jpg" class="bbImage bbImageAligned--right" style="" alt="1668664529053.jpeg" title="1668664529053.jpeg" width="100" height="110" loading="lazy"></a> In addition to the many initiates of the spear, there was one of the true Samurai, The Fifth Spear Kiryoku. Known for both as a second dan of the Fallen Spear as well as a first dan of the Drunken Claw, Kiroyku was surveying those standing before him. He frowned and shook his head, taking a long drink of saki. “Pathetic all of you!”<br>
<br>
Kiroyku eyes narrowed, one claw extending towards Daisuke, a huge brute more bear than tanuki. Daisuke gripped his spear, that was comically small small In his hands, and bowed low to Kiroyku.<br>
<br>
Kiroyku ignored Daisuke and inspected the others assembled. “Koyake!” Kiroyku took another long pull from his saki jug, and gestured. ”Teach the slob why he is so pathetic, do not shame me.”<br>
<br>
Kiroyku gestured for the pair to take to an opening in the field. Daisuke sighed, biting his lip, gulping, and then shambled off towards the area for sparing. He waited for Koyake, gripping the bamboo spear in his massive paws. “Take it easy on me,” he whispered so low only Koyake could hear.<br>

<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/screen_shot_2022-09-06_at_4-08-19_pm-1-png.1040838/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/977/977968-3bc4d9fae7b3b9a3b611b8d246a8d048.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" title="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" width="100" height="101" loading="lazy"></a>​</div>Yukan was quite pleased to be in the presence of The Fifth Spear Kiryoku. If he played his cards right this would set him up for a career in the armed service of the clan , particularly with the Republic of Kuridan's focus on combat ability. He didn't say a word but kept a solemn  serious look on his face and an at ease stance as the higher ranking member within  the clan addressed them. Despite his soon to be opponent's nervous like exterior appearance he did acknowledge that he had a large physicality to him that Yukan was not about to ignore, if push came to shove he was quite certain Daisuke could do some serious damage if he wanted to really try hurting someone.<br>
<br>
Yukan  also gripped his training spear, Yukan also bowed towards the samurai class clan member, tapping into his <b>Republic of Kurdian Etiquette F </b>as he took a composed bow towards him.<br>
<br>
He then made his way out into the field and assumed a stance that suggested he was ready to fight, trying to hold the spear like he had been shown on prior occasions to the best of his ability. Spear unit members may have been one of the more common sorts but only the best got to reach the skill level of figures like Kiryoku, and Yukan had large ambitions and if he wanted to get even close to them  he'd need to minimally foster his career to similar degrees.<br>
<br>
Upon hearing Daisuke tell him to go easy on him, he didn't give him a  verbal answer, instead he gave him a bow, before their sparing match, and presuming he was ready to rumble Yukan  attempted to move into striking  range of Daisuke with his spear. He tried to be mindful of the distance between his feet and how he held the spear, trying to keep an active stance. He then tried to strike the large one in the chest swiftly, going on the offensive, with his blunt end with the intent of  enough force to make Daisuke uncomfortable and hopefully slip up or flinch if it connected so he could follow up, taking on the offensive for now.<br>
<br>
<b>Actions:</b><br>
1. Yukan moves into field and into striking range of Daisuke.<br>
2. Yukan attempts to swiftly strike Daisuke in chest with his training spear.<br>

			Yukan also gripped his training spear, Yukan also bowed towards the samurai class clan member, tapping into his <b>Republic of Kurdian Etiquette F </b>as he took a composed bow towards him.

</blockquote><br>
Kiryoku’s scowl softened for a moment, and he raised his spear in acknowledgement. “See that you mangy Vagabonds?” Kiryoku’s hatred filled gaze scanned the ground of initiatives and hopefuls. No one could become a true Fallen Spear until their spear felled an enemy while lifting up the Clan in the process. In later years it had become almost a staged pantomime of the harsh requirements during Ronginusu no Yari’s era.<br>
<br>
Daisuke realized his error and tried in vain to mimic Yukan’s display of etiquette to their sensei. It was too late. Even though none of the other initiates would stoop to mockery before one of the Numbered Spears, there were some minor heads hakes and wrinkled noises. Kiryoku was quick to correct those that did show their disgust with a smack of his spear, but the damage was done.<br>
<br>
Kiryoku gestured with his spear, commenting even as he watched Yukan and Daisuke take their stances. “The battle is not won on the battle field, you idiots!” He smacked another of those that had scowled at Daisuke to make his point. “Every moment is a battle, each breath an opportunity for your opponent!”<br>
<br>
To Yukan’s further credit, he didn't say a word but kept a solemn serious look on his face and an at ease stance as the higher ranking member within the clan addressed them. He then made his way out into the field and assumed a stance that suggested he was ready to fight, trying to hold the spear like he had been shown on prior occasions to the best of his ability.<br>
<br>
Upon hearing Daisuke tell him to go easy on him, he didn't give him a verbal answer, instead he gave him a bow, before their sparing match.<br>
<br>
The silent bow did further damage to Daisuke. Each bow was like a blow, the second one making Daisuke flinch then growl in rage. Daisuke growled more like a bear than a proper Tunaki, which was to be expected from one of the branch family’s who often tried to breed with other low families if no suitable match could be found within the Clan.<br>
<br>
Yukan moved into striking range of Daisuke with his spear. He kept his stance active. Then when the moment was perfect, right as Daisuke’s moment shifted to charge, Yukan struck the large one in the chest swiftly, going on the offensive. Daisuke was massive with a body built to take punishment; however, his spirit was broken. Yukan’s direct attack blunted Daisuke’s attempted charge.<br>
<br>
What did Daisuke in was not a follow-up of Yukan’s spear. It was the arrow the hit him from the nearby copse of trees! Daisuke grunted and fell down as an arrow struck his knee. However another arrow followed the first coming right for Yukan!<br>
<br>
A third arrow veered towards Kiryoku, who casually blocked it with his jug of saki. Jug already half lifted, he took another chug and bellowed out a laugh. “Whiteclaw, impeccable timing!” Gesturing to the other initiates to hammer his point home again. “Every moment is a battle, each breath an opportunity for your opponent!”<br>

<b>Notes:</b> Combat has begun; we will be doing three actions per round. That’s attack, defend, or move (30’) actions which can be taken in any order and they can be combo’ed (move, 2x attack). Combos add +1 effectiveness (e.g. 2x attack both with effectiveness 3 results a combined effectiveness of 4).<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Yukan</b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/screen_shot_2022-09-06_at_4-08-19_pm-1-png.1040983/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/978/978113-3bc4d9fae7b3b9a3b611b8d246a8d048.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" title="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" width="100" height="101" loading="lazy"></a>​</div>Yukan tried his best to maintain his composure and use what he had learned so far to his advantage in every moment. He felt satsifaction whne his strike hit, he truly had not been meaning to outstage or upset Daisuke, but instead show him respect irrespective of his fumbling, he could of been haughty with him, but instead he took the higher social ground with his comrade who was of equal rank to him. He wasn't about to go easy on an equal of all people, even if it seemed so far his combat ability and stances were more confident than Daisuke, that didn't mean he was going to treat him as a lesser person because of it, it wouldn't be right in his mind. He did know there was a time and place to be harsh, discipline did need to be developed and he hoped that in that way he could learn something from Kiryoku.<br>
<br>
What Yukan was not expecting however was the arrow that came flying out of the group of trees in the field that could provide cover for someone. While he looked a bit surprised he quickly saw  the arrow coming right for him! He acted quickly and used <b>Basic Speed Dodge  </b> to try to quickly get out of the way of the arrow to the right.  hopefully even if he couldn't dodge quickly enough his armor would take the hit well enough at a minimum. After he tried dodging he kept his eyes focused on the opponent towards the trees,  holding his spear in a defensive stance. hearing that it was a known person this was certainly part of the training in his mind, that didn't mean he wasn't going to try any less to perform to his best.<br>
<br>
With his next words he spoke out to everyone trying to invoke <b>Leadership F</b> in his words. "You all heard our most honorable Fifth Spear, we have a hostile in our midsts! Protecting the Fifth and our injured brethern while stopping the intruder are of great priority.! Those of you on the sidelines take your Yari, and get into a semi circle formation  facing  the trees, move quickly to lessen the chance of getting hit!" He'd call out to them.<br>
<br>
"If there aren't any more hostiles around us, Then we will push forward in formation to encircle the intruders, Some of us should stay back just incase to make sure no harm comes to either the injured or the Fifth." He called out. While Yukan was not learned formally in military tactics he tried to communicate what he thought was the best course of acton in that moment based on the basics he had learned so far, figuring he'd treat this like a real hostile event.<br>
<br>
Yukan then moved in front of Daisuke, in the center, where if the others were so inclined they could listen to him if they desired. Yari units were the backbone of some militaries around here for a good reason, footmen who could assemble enmass and be used for offensive or defensive purposes, because The Fifth's standing was higher in the clan he was ready to lay down his life for him out of a feeling of obligation.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Actions:</b><br>
1.Yukan attempts to dodge Whiteclaw's arrow using basic dodge, speed + light armor.<br>
2. Yukan moves into defensive stance in front of Daisuke in order to start the defensive  semi circle formation if the other initiates  desire to join him.<br>

As Yukan rolled out of the path of the arrow, the arrow caught the back of his leg. It was a training arrow, so beyond a bruise he was unaffected by it. He kept his eyes focused on his opponent in the trees, keeping his spear in a defensive stance.<br>

A clan is a large family comprised of the main bloodlines, branch families, blood alliances, and retainers. While Yukan was associated with the clan, so were others. Of the twenty-five initiates of the spear, three were close to either Yukan and two Daisuke. These five were the first to move even before Yukan had finished his speech. They rushed forward, waiving their Yari to ward off arrows from the trees.<br>

Another three arrows screeched through the air; however, with all five on full defense the arrows weren’t able to hurt anyone. The first volley of arrows were followed by three more, pushing the squad of 5‘s skill and cohesion!<br>

Daisuke was on the ground, panting from the multiple attacks he’d sustained. They would leave massive bruises but no lasting damage, in another few minutes he’d be able to walk again, but the shame of wallowing in the mud had twisted Daisuke’s face, making him look more like a sad panda than a fierce bear he was usually known for. Yukan was like the light of sun after the darkest day. As Yukan approached with the unit of 5 spears, Daisuke smiled and tried to push himself back up to standing. He leaned on his spear, swaying as he did so.<br>
<br>
“Ha!“ Tadakatsu, a well liked, pureblood from the 3rd branch family of the clan. “Raise your spears!” Tadakatsu looked towards the trees. “And let’s give the enemy hell!” Five other initiates followed his lead.<br>
<br>
Not to be outdone by either Yukan or Tadakatsu, Masanori, a pure blood scion nephew to the clan leader also raised his voice to take command of several Tanuki friendly to him. Snapping his finger, Masanori said, “Come, bonuses for each yield or kill.” The remaining five initiates followed after.<br>
<br>
As the two squads rushed over towards the trees, three more arrows rained down! The squad cohesion under Masanori was weak and one of his minions went down.<br>
<br>
Even though Tadakatsu’s squad had to fend off two arrows, they remained cohesive and pressed on, reaching the copse of trees just ahead of Masanori’s squad.<br>
<br>
Kiryoku pounded his spear in the ground. “You aren’t useless after all!”<br>
<br>
“Haha!” Whiteclaw called from within the trees, “Let’s see how many of your hatchlings we can fell.” Whiteclaw and at least two other archers remained safely within the clump of trees at least 30 feet up. “Come little ones, come and fall beneath our arrows!”<br>

Notes: Combat has begun; we will be doing three actions per round. That’s attack, defend, or move (30’) actions which can be taken in any order and they can be combo’ed (move, 2x attack). Combos add +1 effectiveness (e.g. 2x attack both with effectiveness 3 results a combined effectiveness of 4). <br>

Wanting to keep his  <b>Leadership F </b> going. Since so many of them ran ahead to fight Yukan was not going to charge ahead instead he would stay back and protect the Fifth and literally fallen with those nearest to him.<br>
<br>
"Try to surround the enemy!,  When you get close move as a cohesive unit so you can defend each other while you advance!"  He would try his luck even if it was less certain than those who had gravitated towards him. He'd continue  out to those who were charging forwards. "Do not loose your resolve, showing your backs to the enemy is not an option!" he'd call out once more to try to appeal to their sense of honor and 'manliness' so to speak. He held confidence that some of the more competent ones down there could supplement command from that point, if they listened they could potentially leverage their spears and attack the ranged  intruders in the trees from all sides.<br>
<br>
He'd  notice  Daisuke as he got up, "When you've managed to shake that off well enough to move, we should move with you back towards the Fifth. Us joining the fray will only leave our back flank exposed,  protecting our flank is of utmost importance." He reasoned this way they'd be able to better protect the Fifth too if enemies suddenly came from the other side Since The Fifth was a samurai he was part of a military noble class, putting his life of higher value as well as far as Yukan was concerned, being able to kill three birds with one stone so to speak was the best option in his mind.<br>
<br>
If/when it seemed Daisuke could move he continued,<br>
"We shall move in  a defensive semi circle facing outwards simultaneously." The reason he picked this was because it meant that some of them would have their eyes on the front and sides so the two on the ends  of the circle opening could quickly turn the other way and spot enemies coming from their flank. After waiting for them to get into position, he started to move back towards the Fifth. Assuming that they would follow, with his spear ready to try to block any incoming arrows.<br>
<br>
<b>Actions<br>
1. </b>After waiting for Daisuke is able to walk, Yukan orders the five who came near him into formation and Yukan moves into formation.<br>
2. Yukan further instructs them to  move back with him along with Daisuke towards Kiryoku to better protect him and Daisuke  and to secure their flank should enemies try coming from the other side of the field opposite from the trees to attack Kiryoku.<br>

Although Tadakatsu bristled at the orders, they were never the less sound in nature. Plus there was the momentum of the situation to speak nothing of not wanting to lose face or be called a coward. “Acknowledged,” Tadakatsu spat out and continued to exert his own leadership to keep up unit cohesion. Three more arrows rained down on them, but the unit managed to defend against them without taking noticeable damage.<br>
<br>
Masanori was another matter. He wasn’t a leader so much as he had clout and wealth to throw around. His offered bounty incentivized his unit to act more individualistic and the three arrows picked through their mismatched defense. “This!” Masanori swore. “We need reinforcements.“ Furthermore he had his unit lag behind so that they could use Tadakatsu’s unit for cover.<br>
<br>
Seeing this, Tadakatsu tried to shake him loose and opened themselves up for another round of arrows. This time around they pierced one of the initiates in the leg and head, dazing them, slowing down the unit.<br>
<br>
Furthermore, by the time the two units arrived around the trees they had another problem! Yari were not designed for throwing and because this was a practice session everyone was only equipped in their personal armor and the practice spears. Meanwhile, Whiteclaw and his clutch hooted in the trees, jumping from tree to tree and firing down upon the two units. Whiteclaw shouted out more taunts, which only infuriated Masanori.<br>

It helped to hear their field commanders exhortations. None of them wanted to show their back and they all brandished their spears but Whiteclaw and the other archers were thirty feet up amongst the branches of the trees. With the approach of fall, the leaves had turned to bright red and oranges, some had even fallen thinning out the camouflage. Even without the cover, the archers were out of the reach of the Yari.<br>
<br>

Daisuke grunted, lowering his head. “I am ready.” He grimaced and leaned heavily upon his spear, but he hobbled along with the group. Daisuke’s armor was not so fancy as Yukan’s. There wa a dent where Yukan’s practice spear struck his chest and another where the practice arrow had hit.<br>
<br>
The unit formed up and follows Yukan’s instructions, making their way towards the Fifth was fifteen feet away. Another arrow harassed them, but most of the remaining arrows falling from the trees were now shot downward into the two squads. The two squads, the trees, and the archers were all 45 feet away. No more arrows came towards Yukan’s group.<br>

A circle of spears formed up around the Fifth, who oddly made no comments. He silently sipped at the jug of saki, grunting occasionally as his dark eyes flickered around the battle field. As he paused to lift his jug up to his lips once more, six arrows at close range streaked towards him. Fortunately Yukan, Daisuke, and the five spears had formed up a circular formation. From the other direction, while most of the attention had been on Whiteclaw and the archers in the trees, two Tengu had crept unnoticed towards the Fifth’s position. They used short bows and poisoned arrows. The poison was only an irritant instead of being lethal, contact left behind sticky sap that itched fiercely. Two of the Koyake Initiates got hit, but the other four arrows were deflected.<br>
<br>
The pair of Tengu shadow assassins dropped their short bows, switching to daggers and throwing knives as they closed in range.<br>
<br>
“Not bad,” Kiryoku said, taking another swig of saki. “Not great either.” He sighed, looking at the assassins. “Only two, really?” He compressed his lips and shook his head. “Such indignity, they better not touch me initiates. You can do at least that much, can’t you?”<br>

Notes: Combat has begun; we will be doing three actions per round. That’s attack, defend, or move (30’) actions which can be taken in any order and they can be combo’ed (move, 2x attack). Combos add +1 effectiveness (e.g. 2x attack both with effectiveness 3 results a combined effectiveness of 4).<br>
<ul>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">We will treat each minion squad as a single “unit” using their Team-up Effectiveness of 6 and HP of 5.</li>

<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/screen_shot_2022-09-06_at_4-08-19_pm-1-png.1041393/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/978/978523-3bc4d9fae7b3b9a3b611b8d246a8d048.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" title="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" width="100" height="101" loading="lazy"></a>​</div>While Yukan did his best not to show it, deep down after seeing how nimble their enemies were as they could jump from tree to tree just like that and keep firing arrows, and the fact that their Yari were not long enough to reach was certainly a dilemma. Since Yukan had not tried to order such a large group of people before like this, and he still had much to learn  it was understandable that it wouldn't be perfect. He felt somewhat frustrated with himself, should they not have gone over to the trees at all? If this was a serious exercise there could be people's real lives at stake, and he didn't want to be the reason that people were unnecessarily lost in a real situation. He would have to improve he thought to himself. Hopefully with showing his initiative for leadership he still would be received as well as he could be given the lack of experience. He figured that if they could keep them contained in the trees however they'd have to run out of things to throw and shoot eventually unless one of them had some kind of peculiar ability.<br>
      <br>
While he was trying to figure out if he should yell anything else to those over at the trees other than the fact that they needed to keep a defensive stance to mitigate projectiles coming their way. Normally in a battle like this they'd simply counter with their own Yumi unit, but he yet to see that be an available option in this situation.<br>
<br>
Yukan was thrown a bit when the simulated assassins came to fight. The good news was in this case if they used their spears effectively they had the range advantage here when it came to melee combat. The two who got struck with the stuff that would make it harder for them to fight wasn't good news but couldn't be avoided.  Continuing <b>Leadership F,  "</b>You heard him! We will hold this ground here and now, not a finger will be laid on the Fifth! Those of you who can shift yourselves towards the intruding pair  get closer together like the wall formation we learned!"  "And be wary of their ranged weapons, be prepared to defend!" As far as Yukan was concerned they needed to be ready to lay down their lives for nobility in the clan at a moment's notice. Yukan moved into a central position in front of Kiryoku in a defensive stance with his Yari at the ready. This way they could work as a team to block any more projectiles thrown at any of them, more importantly stopping them from reaching Kiryoku. He had his attention focused on the Tengu masked assassins. This would ideally force them on the offensive, they would need to move in to attack, and risk getting hit by multiple spears where their blades were disadvantaged. He did not want to risk creating an opening that they could try to speed/ sneak through to the Fifth  if they spread out and tried to charge them.<br>
<br>
<b>Actions: <br>
1.</b> Yukan moves into defensive spear stance ready to block projectiles infront of Kiryoku.<br>
2. Yukan tells abled bodied of group to fortify circular line by moving closer together similar to defensive spear wall structure, warning them that intruding pair may also have projectiles so to  take a  preemptive defensive stance, to try to force the Tengu on the offensive putting them at a disadvantage.<br>

</blockquote>The unit of initiates under Yukan’s direct command shifted. Two of them were occasionally distracted with itching the pustules that had started to form around where they were struck. They raised their Yari, spears held in white knuckled hands. Dark eyes glared at the would-be Tengu shadow assassins.<br>
<br>
The Tengu made sqwuaking noises, rattling the blades of their daggers together like nails on chalkboard or the toe curling crunch of walking on new fallen snow. It was distracting.<br>
<br>
While Yukan wrestled with the situation, Kiryoku smirked. He took another sip of saki, paused, then rattled the jug. It gave a hollow sound. “Tch!” He grumbled. His mood soured even further. He looked at the pair and sighed.<br>
<br>

			"And be wary of their ranged weapons, be prepared to defend!" As far as Yukan was concerned they needed to be ready to lay down their lives for nobility in the clan at a moment's notice. Yukan moved into a central position in front of Kiryoku in a defensive stance with his Yari at the ready.

</blockquote><br>
“Yes!” The pair of Tengu cackled, flicking the daggers at the row of spears opposing them. The defensive line surged forward a few feet to try and catch the Tengu but they flapped their black feathered wings and glided back a few feet. The movements between the attackers and defenders happened in starts and fits, since the defenders weren’t willing to leaving Kiryoku. Meanwhile the Tengu’s volley of daggers weren’t terribly effective against the wall of spears either.<br>
<br>
With neither attacks being effective, the pair hurls down alchemical smoke balls and disappear. Since none of the people with Yukan has training sharp eyes or hunting down hidden opponents. Worse than that, the smoke the pair hurled had a foul, sulfurous odor like a bad fart. The irritation of the odor was only amplified by the Tanuki’s heightened smelling! <br>
<br>
“Out of saki and now I have to deal with this smell?!” Kiryoku growls, hurling the bottle onto the ground. He gestured towards the wayward two units, getting hammered by Whiteclaw’s arrows. “Well?” <br>
<br>
Forty-five feet away the two units had dwindled. Under the continual volleys of arrows, the two units had fallen into disarray. Masanori’s unit was the worst off. Several of his initiates were hobbling with Yari’s askew. Masanori attempted to re-organize and use Tadakatsu‘s unit for cover. However, Tadakatsu was only angered by this. Meanwhile Whiteclaw continued to take advantage of the situation. In another round or two the units would be decimated and the archers showed no sign of stopping. <br>

<br>
He also knew that his group couldn't just sit there and let  the assassins  keep throwing stuff at them and their superior worst of all they couldn't see with the smog they just created  created, they needed to act, the solution then occurred to him possibly, as he continued to try not to gag from the smell. He tried his best to speak with authority,,"<b>All of you, get into a tight circle around the fifth!, hold your Yari like we're preparing to respond to a calvary charge!</b>" He didn't exactly have the military language for what he wanted but hopefully it got the point across, if any of the Assassins tried to rush in there was a chance that they might accidentally 'skew' themselves on one of their training spears. He was also dubious that they could see well enough to throw in this smog either, so the obvious solution was for them to try to rush in for a melee strike through holes in the defense they may have seen. Yukan moved tightly towards Fifth facing away with his spear ready, now quite close to him. At this point Yukan was doing his best to salvage the situation as the smog had really messed this up, he was hoping to move in and counter attack strategically after they attacked but not being able to see made him have to double down on the defensive for the moment with his senses overwhelmed.<br>
<br>
<b>Actions:</b> <br>
1.Yukan moves tightly into position against the Fifth holding his spear so that anyone trying to get into melee range  to strike the Fifth would be made potentially more difficult, instructs rest of units to follow suit in a tight circle as quickly as possible.<br>

Tadakatsu was the first to respond. He perked up, looking back towards Yukan. “Aye Commander. You heard him, withdraw.” <br>
<br>
Masanori jerked, cursed once, but ordered his unit into a defensive wall. Tadakatsu’s unit formed the second layer of the wall, which allowed his unit to be more defended. Even as Whiteclaw’s trio sent another volley towards them, the two units were able to reinforce each other enough that no one else took more damage. The two units slowly pulled back first fifteen feet and then thirty.<br>

With the approaching of Masanori’s and Tadakatsu’s units, it wouldn’t be long until they formed up. Before the two approaching units and the sulfur smoke could clear the assassins struck again! One appeared and rushed forward, moving fast with a dagger in each hand. The closest initiate, one of those suffering from both the irritating arrow and the smoke, was hit by the Tengu. In an act of courage, he charged the Tengu. Fast as lightning, the Tengu struck out in a flurry of blows, dropping the initiate to the ground. However, having overcommitted, the Yari on either side came down. The Tengu pivoted, catching one spear blade but was unable to react to the second. The second Yari crashed down on the Tengu’s body, dropping it to the ground. <br>
<br>
Using the commotion of both the retreating troops, a long shot volley of arrows actually traveling the full forty-five feet, and the attack of the first Tengu, for the final attempt. <br>

He was relieved that they still heeded his words and didn't do anything rash like try to climb the trees to reach the archers that would have been rough. He had also made sure to keep mind of their flank which as difficult as the tree front was, the Tengu's no longer had the advantage on the flank as they moved forwarded.<br>
<br>
Even as he was irritated still trying to keep his composure while he was distracted he faced forward, he knew that the enemy might try using much more serious things like poison on the actual battle field so in that sense he was relieved this was a training. The Yari stance had worked just as he had intended, the Tengu who over compensated was vulnerable to a team attack and was subsequently struck, just how Yukan had imagined it, even as one of their own fell from the flurries. With <b>Leadership F</b> he continued, "Two farthest from me  of you stay back near the FIfth, the two closest move in with me, we'll either strike down or route the one remaining., stay together and attack as a team!.<br>
<br>
<b>Actions:<br>
1.</b>Yukan would move forwards with two minion initiates  on either side of him towards the remaining Tengu and would attempt to basic strike them, with his Yari, assuming other two would follow and also attempt to strike them so that the remaining assassin would have 3 Yari to deal with at the same time.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Realizing her demise, the last Tengu Assassin flung herself at Yukan. Her daggers came in a surging wave of flickering blade points some sort of ability guiding her movements into a flurry of metal. Yukan wasn’t alone and in war numbers were important. <br>
<br>
Daisuke roared, barring his thick canines and dove at the assassin. Her movements were fluid, and her focus unwavering. Even as Daisuke’s Yari lead his body onto the Tengu’s, Yukan still took a dagger to his neck. It wasn’t fatal, but it hurt like fire and made it impossible to breathe for a moment. <br>
<br>
His unit didn’t hesitate, flowing forward to protect their commander and put down the Assassin. <br>
<br>
The other two units finished pulling back and fully surrounded Kiryoku. The Fifth Spear grunting his mood improving enough for him not to scold anyone.<br>
<br>
He waiting for the two Tengu to be trundled up before speaking. “If you hadn’t coated me in stink, I would have left you a modicum of dignity. Tell your master he owes me a bottle of Pale Moon Saki.”<br>
<br>
The Tengu who attacked Yukan who also hadn’t stopped sqwuaking as they were trundled up finally shrieked, “Get me out of this!”<br>
<br>
Kiryoku grunted in thought. With a punch, he cleaved through reality and his fist disappeared up to the forearm, paused, and then he pulled another jug of saki from elsewhere.  He shouted, “Whiteclaw come off your perch, you at least do credit to your elders!”<br>
<br>
Leaving the Tengu tied up still, he gestured towards Yukan, “Tell me your mistakes before Whiteclaw arrives each of you.”<br>
<br>
It wasn’t clear if he didn’t say anyone’s name specifically on purpose or he was just drunk and forgotten, but an awkward silence formed filled only with the Tengu’s continued swears much to Kiryoku’s amusement.  Meanwhile Tadakatsu and Masanori glared and were about to talk over each other. <br>
<br>
In the distance, Whiteclaw and the other two archers leapt into the air. They jumped up past the crown of trees and arced through the air on a graceful trajectory that would no doubt land them near Kiryoku.<br>

<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/screen_shot_2022-09-06_at_4-08-19_pm-1-png.1042521/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/979/979651-3bc4d9fae7b3b9a3b611b8d246a8d048.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" title="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" width="100" height="101" loading="lazy"></a></b>​</div>When Yukan took the dagger to the neck he tensed up and tried his best to hold his resolve even with the burning. He knew very well that in actual combat a hit like that could do. someone in very easily, and it only made him feel more humbled. He needed to get stronger than this, much stronger if he wanted to contribute to Kuridan and bring further prestige to his clan. Thankfully those who followed him diligently were able to take care of the remaining Tengu.  He tried his best to remain serious and stoic, to ignore the squawking and swearing that was on going after the Tengu had been apprehended.<br>
<br>
 but once everything had settled he turned to Kiryoku as he heard him as them to speak on their mistakes. Yukan was not someone prideful enough to try to claim he was perfect, he knew that he needed to learn so much more than what he knew.<br>
<br>
He gave him a well composed  bow with <b>Republic of Kuridan Etiquette F </b> It was pretty clear that the other two were likely to start blaming one another.<br>
<br>
"I will not claim perfection. Sensei, I should not have sent off so many towards the ones in the trees so rashly, I wanted to disarm our opponents as quickly as possible, not taking into consideration their ability to stall while we were so limited in our options to hit them without any dedicated ranged support, I tried to remedy the situation... by having them reform, but it was an error nevertheless."<br>
<br>
"When the Tengu pair arrived perhaps we should have tried a more mobile defense, advancing in pairs and keeping some back, shut them down before they could  start the smog, but I felt that prioritizing your safety in such a targeted attack was of great importance."<br>
<br>
Yukan could have easily tried to detract from those who led the units on that front who didn't stop to consider what happened earlier, or the fact those leading the units out there  were really competing with one another instead of working together, but Kiryoku had not asked him to say what everyone else did wrong, he asked for <b>His</b> mistakes. He wasn't going to stoop as low in that moment to play the blame game with others just to try to put himself in the best light as possible.<br>
<br>
He saw Whiteclaw and the others jump nearby presumably and waited for them to get into an appropriate distance, before he'd initiate  a bow out of respect, Whiteclaw's skills had been quite impressive.<br>

“Wrong!” Kiryoku shouted. “Send every last man to die on that siege and it would have been a success. Keep every last spear around me and it would have been a success.”<br>
<br>
Kiryoku hefted his jug, pouring some into a cup and handing it to Yukan. “Drink. And meditate upon this. How can a commander fail at every task they undertake and yet still succeed?” Kiryoku slapped Yukan on the back. <br>
<br>
He turned to the other two. “A fool learns from no one. A wise Tanuki learns from the failures of others. I have no interest in anything else. Ask your commander for your individual assessments and learnings. He’s not terrible.”<br>
<br>
Whiteclaw landed with the other two, scowling at Kiryoku. “Must you continue to humiliate my people?”<br>
<br>
“What?” Kiryoku turned and gestured, “I thought they were assassins not birds. If they can’t escape while everyone is focused on me, they really are an embarrassment.”<br>
<br>
Whiteclaw snarled, walked over to the two trussed up Tengu and slashed their rope bindings with a foot claw. His hands never left his bow. He shook his head.<br>
<br>
“Now that that’s settled, you no doubt agree Yukan will command the hunt.” It wasn’t a question, but the words were softened with a cup of saki. <br>
<br>
Even though Whiteclaw was a junior, he didn’t defer as much as one would expect. “Yes, Fifth Spear.”<br>
<br>
“What?” Masanori asked, caught himself and finished, “Fifth Spear, I was promised command of the hunt!”<br>
<br>
“Oh?” Kiryoku asked, “Then why did you follow Yukan so readily?”<br>
<br>
Masanori glared at Yukan, which only deepened when Tadakatsu added, “I’d follow Yukan over you.” He slapped Masanori in the back. <br>
<br>
“I knew you weren’t a complete idiot.” Kiryoku said, handing a cup of saki to Tadakatsu. “I suppose if you want to abstain Masanori, your father can find something for you to do. Leadership of the third squad can go to someone else.”<br>
<br>
Masanori bite his lip until it bled. “No Fifth Spear.”<br>
<br>
“Good, you can tell your father he’s welcome.” Kiryoku handed a cup of saki to Masanori. <br>
<br>
Turning to Yukan, he said, “Great! Let’s see if you can not mess this up. You’ve got a unit leader who is better at combat than you, one that hates your guts, and another who would love to see you fail so he can save the day.” Refilling Yukon’s cup, he said, “Whiteclaw will fill you in on the particulars. The Shrine Guardian offered an assistant to patch you up if you need it. Good? Good!”<br>
<br>
Kiryoku hefted his jug, drank deeply and departed.</div>

That only further confirmed what the issue was, he needed to keep them all around the Fifth he thought in his mind after that, the siege might have been successful if he fully committed, either way he spread out too thin. When he was offered the Sake  he gave a  stoic nod towards Kiryoku, <br>
<br>
"Yes Fifth Spear."<br>
 movingly slightly at the back slap before swiftly reassuming his stance. He accepted the Sake.He needed to do better than this.. He took a sip of the drink. He tried to think it all through, was it referencing what had happened? Had he not excelled in either task and still met the objective? He would grapple with what he was told  He felt a bit of relief that he hadn't blown it entirely even if there were problems that had been addressed and needed work. He then drank the sake that was offered to him.<br>
<br>
Yukan stayed quiet during the assassin discussion regarding the Tengu as they were freed, it seemed that Yukan was taking what Kiryoku said to heart and was trying his best to think things through. What he had not been expecting to hear was for Kiryoku to say that he was going to lead the next hunt. Even with his lack of true experience showing, he was going to continue. He knew very well that others who were competing were not going to be pleased with this news, but Yukan stayed quiet regardless trying to keep his professionalism at all time high. Yukan glanced over at Masanori and could see that he was certainly not happy, at the very least he had enough sense to back down when he was treading into disrespectful waters had he gone any farther in protest. <br>
<br>
Yukan at the very least felt somewhat reassured when he heard Tadakatsu say that even if it was probably more out of the rivalry he was showing with Masanori.<br>
<br>
He then turned to Kiryoku once more diligently, as he filled his cup back up and spoke. He was laying out how things were, but these unideal circumstances only further motivated Yukan to succeed at the task at hand to the best of his ability, he needed to not only for his career but for the security of the nation. He bowed once more with<b> Republic of Kurdian Etiquette F</b> for a more prolonged period , making sure to keep his cup upright, after he had poured the drink and moved away.<br>
<br>
"Yes, Fifth Spear."  He straightened himself back up after he was fully on his way out. Yukan then took another drink of the sake, feeling the slight warm almost pleasant 'burning' sensation in his mouth and throat, helping to ease his nerves some. He then turned at attention towards Whiteclaw, ready for the briefing.<br>

			"Yes, Fifth Spear."  He straightened himself back up after he was fully on his way out.

He then turned at attention towards Whiteclaw, ready for the briefing.

</blockquote><br>
Whiteclaw looked at Yukan and let the silence spread out. Around the group on the distant hillocks were a smattering of onlookers. It wasn’t uncommon for early arrivals and different factions within the allied clans to keep tabs on the training drills, especially larger ones like this one. <br>
<br>
Whiteclaw shrugged, “Very well. As the season cools and the cherry blossoms begin to fall, the Hill Toads prepare for hibernation. During the next two weeks they slow down and their senses dull. Plus they have fattened up for the winter. The fat is used for everything from lateen fuel to seasoning for ramen. Plus their meat is fatty and tender. Their organs have value to different organizations and factions. The Daimyo uses this as an opportunity to show off new talent. Each of the Five Spears’ <br>
selects a group of initiates with a commander to represent the Spear’s Sonae lead by one of their Yari-gumi initiates.” <br>
<br>
“Only five units are allowed, and the Fifth choose three units of Yari-gumi, one Yumi-gumi, my unit, and the fifth unit is Konida. Fifth convinced the Shrine to assign a Shrinemaiden to lead the Komodo plus I heard a mage pulled some strings and four others for transport logistics.”<br>
<br>
Whiteclaw shrugged. “My unit has spent the last few days scouting. We could use a few hours to rest and eat. It’s two days journey to the Hill Toad we found and four back, that only gives us a few days to hunt it if we want to return before the end of the festival when the Spears and others who sent parties out will display their spoils to the Daimyou.”<br>
<br>
“I’ll gather the Komodo logistical troops. Father has already invested tremendously in this expedition,” Masanori said. “Do you have any other equipment you want for the expedition, father will loan out a modest amount.”<br>
<br>
At this point all the spears had fallen in around the four leaders listening intently to everything going. It’s not that what Whiteclaw said was unknown but few had heard it out together and none here had ever participated in such a hunt. Hill Toads were a prestigious trophy and a terrible calamity when they were berserk during mating season in the spring.<br>
<br>
“I can form up the squads and run them through some drills,” Tadakatsu said. <br>
<br>
While these were all helpful suggestions with their own agenda behind them, ultimate decision making fell upon Yukan. It was clear the Shrinemaiden would need a suitable escort and only Yukan could lead that there was certainly much to do and little time to do it. Every hour meant less time to hunt or worse being forced to act in haste when on the expedition. <br>
<br>
OOC: Yukan and Alfis can post here. Then when your ready head to the shrine.</div>

Gyoubu smiled, ignoring the kitsune next to her and continued to plead her case. “At least let the commander decide, Longfeather.” She paused, her smile brightening as she used her etiquette against her new rival. She had no idea where the hideous fox had come from, but she would not allow him to shame her so! “I passed on three other parties, because you promised me Yukan would lead this one and I could have it! I want him!” She licked her lips. <br>
<br>
The three were alone within the inner sanctum of the shrine. For some reason since the fox had appeared Longfeather had taken all audiences in his seat of power. It was all so suspicious. <br>
<br>
“I have blood right, there’s no way you can deny that! And I’m an actual Shrine Maiden. It is not!” She glared at the fox. <br>

<br>
Longfeather sighed. “Yukan was chosen. The Fifth did as such and Masanori humiliated twice over according to the Fifth. This covers the debt owed and promises made, no matter how connected your family they do not rise higher than the Fifth, yes?”<br>
<br>
Gyoubu smiled, “Yukan will pick me over it.”  She didn’t even look at the kitsune <b><u>Seikatsu Mitsunari.<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1669430604126-jpeg.1043160/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/980/980290-b5ea68035fb2c7b04dfd839c75bc1a15.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1669430604126.jpeg" title="1669430604126.jpeg" width="100" height="147" loading="lazy"></a></u></b><br>
<br>
Mitsunari certain had some challenges before him and this would be his least. How hard could it be to convince a juvenile Tenuki male to pick an kitsune over a fertile Tenuki Shrinemaiden? And judging by her pheromones she was about to get into heat. Gyoubu was a promising priestess and one well connected with family ties to the ruling Clan Elders. <br>
<br>
Here in the seat of his power in the heart of the Shrine of Fallen Blossoms Longfeather’s power was enhanced considerably. There were mysteries about the Shrines and their powers to unravel. They were the key to the Daimyou maintaining power. Each Shrine Guardian held tremendous clout within the Daimyou’s court. It was even rumored they would reincarnate if killed, or then could regenerate or their magical powers were a grade stronger. So much to figure out and only two weeks to do it. <br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1669431404816-jpeg.1043161/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/980/980291-38cb9e0e01c288c6c471acd280a4427d.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1669431404816.jpeg" title="1669431404816.jpeg" width="150" height="100" loading="lazy"></a><br>
<br>
Longfeather watched Mitsunari with the wide black opening and inner sanctum’s heart architecture channeling the local lay lines and giving authority over to the Shrine Guardian.</div>

There were many things that Mitsunari had planned to do here in Kuridan, but none of them could be done with his limited knowledge of the nation and lack of allies here. And so he had journeyed far from his horde and samurai on what was essentially gossip. Talk of important figures gathered and honor to be gained meant that there would be figures present who could help him achieve any of his plans. He was successful in infiltrating the shrine, but now some insolent child threatened to stand in his way. She seemed irrational, perhaps too proud for her own good and maybe a little spoiled. The little tanuki was apparently someone with connections, maybe a little effort to befriend her would make her a useful pawn in future endeavors. But for now he wanted bigger names.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Master Longfeather, I am grateful to even be considered and given this unique and rare opportunity."</span> The fox finally spoke as he smiled warmly and gave a brief glance to the tanuki girl and then back to the owl. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I came to offer my expertise as a Sage and my experience as a traveler of the world, I did not think my arrival or participation would cause such a...stir."</span> His three black tails swayed in a fluid motion behind as he knelt on the hard floor. The girl seemed confident that she would take the position, but confidence alone would not secure her victory, Mitsunari would use <b>[Kitsune Trickery]</b> in an attempt to sway both the shrine maiden and the Master Longfeather's opinions of him. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I was once a slave in the east and since escaping I have devoted myself to doing whatever I can to help Kuridan grow."</span> The words poured from his lips in a soft voice that betrayed his honesty as he recalled the true and painful memories of his time as a slave. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"But Kitsune were once protectors of Kuridan and its citizens and I hope to live up to that standard so that all citizens of the republic may feel safer and sleep a little easier. I just hope that others will give me that chance."</span> Mitsunari turned his gaze to Gyoubu once more, making it more obvious that he was referring to her. <br>

<span style="font-size: 26px"><b><u>Alfis</u></b></span><br>
<br>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">The area surrounding the Shrine of the Fallen Cherry Blossom certainly lived up to its reputation. Countless cherry blossom trees littered the horizon, dyeing the scenery in their pale pink color. Despite the crisp autumn that invigorated one's self, most of the greenery in the area was still managing to endure the coming season and flood the surroundings with the beautiful green of life under the vast deep blue sky. It seemed as if nature itself was celebrating while those around had chosen to join it.<br>
<br>
A wry smile spread across Alfis' face as he took everything. Although thoroughly impressed, he could feel the smug phantom of his mother begin to haunt the recesses of his mind as a result. His family's inn was no stranger to the Cherry Blossom Festival, putting up cherry blossom-themed decorations and using the local food to help entice customers traveling through their town for it. The primary purpose of his visit was also related to this. The local Cherry Blossom Sake and Hill Toad meat were the prominent attractions sold during and after this period, being a great boon to their income.  <br>
<br>
In the past, Alfis' mother was the one who usually handled procuring the necessary goods while he watched the inn, but that had changed this year. As was a tradition within his family, It was now expected that he travel and begin making a living beyond his usual assistance with the inn. Perhaps softer than most would be in the past, his mother hired him to deliver the regular supply for the year as a first job rather than altogether leave him to fend for himself. <br>
<br>
Despite being unfamiliar with the traveling route, it seemed he had still arrived before most merchants and tourists had. Most were still in the process of preparing for the festival that was still a week away. This luckily made obtaining the goods that he sought far easier and likely less expensive than it likely would have been otherwise. Though his task was accomplished, he still intended to stay for several days to experience the festival. <br>
<br>
<br>
There was much to learn from the area, with many types of food to sample and businesses to gain insight from. A pair of hands to assist during the busy time was always welcome, and Alfis would likely be able to test himself and secure lodging in one fell swoop if he were careful. Before he became too busy, he did take some time for himself. A hearty meal was enjoyed,  local spices were obtained, and finally, he decided to view the Shrine of the Fallen Cherry Blossom.</span><br>
<br>
It wasn't long before his initial goal got sidetracked by a number of people starting to gather nearby in the distance. Upon approaching to investigate, Alfis found what seemed to be a battle in progress. Though Initially startled, the murmurs of the audience and the realization that the participants were using training weapons soon allowed him to calm himself. Although there was some difficulty, the Tanuki managed to defeat their Tengu enemies. As things settled, he realized that one of the individuals taking part was surprisingly familiar.<br>
<br>
<br>
Though Alfis was more familiar with the man in a more casual environment, he grew more confident as time passed that the stoic and commanding figure was Kiryoku. What confirmed this for Alfis was that he seemed slightly drunk despite the time of day and only continued to drink further. He had become infamous for being a living storm due to the amount and strength of the alcohol he drank at the Tiger's Den. The man had become a customer for life after tasting one of his mother's notorious alcoholic creations, being likened to drinking lava and known to knock the common man out after a glass or two.<br>
<br>
Despite his reputation for alcohol, Kiryoku still gave a generally good impression. Alfis respected the man due to his serious nature, seeming martial skill, and mental strength. As a cub, there were several times that he annoyed the Tanuki to teach him how to become stronger because of this.<br>
<br>
Although he felt slightly awkward and out of place, Alfis chose to approach the group to greet the man. To avoid interrupting and becoming a nuisance, he decided to stand off to the side and make himself as unnoticeable until they were finished with their business. Despite the distance, his ears perked up when he overhead <b>[Enhanced Senses (Hearing) F] </b>discussion of a Hill Toad hunt. His interest was quickly garnered, and his tail swayed as a result while he listened.</div>

			Whiteclaw looked at Yukan and let the silence spread out. Around the group on the distant hillocks were a smattering of onlookers. It wasn’t uncommon for early arrivals and different factions within the allied clans to keep tabs on the training drills, especially larger ones like this one.<br>
<br>
Whiteclaw shrugged, “Very well. As the season cools and the cherry blossoms begin to fall, the Hill Toads prepare for hibernation. During the next two weeks they slow down and their senses dull. Plus they have fattened up for the winter. The fat is used for everything from lateen fuel to seasoning for ramen. Plus their meat is fatty and tender. Their organs have value to different organizations and factions. The Daimyo uses this as an opportunity to show off new talent. Each of the Five Spears’<br>
selects a group of initiates with a commander to represent the Spear’s Sonae lead by one of their Yari-gumi initiates.”<br>
<br>
“Only five units are allowed, and the Fifth choose three units of Yari-gumi, one Yumi-gumi, my unit, and the fifth unit is Konida. Fifth convinced the Shrine to assign a Shrinemaiden to lead the Komodo plus I heard a mage pulled some strings and four others for transport logistics.”<br>
<br>
Whiteclaw shrugged. “My unit has spent the last few days scouting. We could use a few hours to rest and eat. It’s two days journey to the Hill Toad we found and four back, that only gives us a few days to hunt it if we want to return before the end of the festival when the Spears and others who sent parties out will display their spoils to the Daimyou.”<br>
<br>
“I’ll gather the Komodo logistical troops. Father has already invested tremendously in this expedition,” Masanori said. “Do you have any other equipment you want for the expedition, father will loan out a modest amount.”<br>
<br>
At this point all the spears had fallen in around the four leaders listening intently to everything going. It’s not that what Whiteclaw said was unknown but few had heard it out together and none here had ever participated in such a hunt. Hill Toads were a prestigious trophy and a terrible calamity when they were berserk during mating season in the spring.<br>
<br>
“I can form up the squads and run them through some drills,” Tadakatsu said.<br>
<br>
While these were all helpful suggestions with their own agenda behind them, ultimate decision making fell upon Yukan. It was clear the Shrinemaiden would need a suitable escort and only Yukan could lead that there was certainly much to do and little time to do it. Every hour meant less time to hunt or worse being forced to act in haste when on the expedition.<br>
<br>
OOC: Yukan and Alfis can post here. Then when your ready head to the shrine.

</blockquote><br>
Yukan listened to what everyone had to say intently keeping his serious stance. It didn't take a genius to figure out what was going on. Just as the Fifth Spear said there were people already trying to campaign to put themselves in the best position.  While to further his chances it would be better if he made the majority of contributions he also knew that during an expedition like this there were expectations of contributions that people wanted to make and it would be silly not to look into what others had to bring to the table when it was an important task like this. As important as individualistic campaigning was, teamwork was also important as he had learned from the Fifth earlier during the training, they needed a united front for an absolute victory. Perhaps they could use some of the military strategies they had learned in hunting the toad, he thought to himself.<br>
<br>
Once Whiteclaw stopped talking. He looked over towards everyone and shifted away from the group in as authoritative stance he could muster, he had been put in charge here and he needed to make that clear right off the bat so he didn't want anyone thinking they could just walk all over him now that the Fifth Spear was gone.<br>
<br>
"Thank you for the brief,  Whiteclaw-sama "<br>
<br>
He then initiated<b> Leadership F </b>for what he was going to say with delegation. "Now then, I think it's safe to say that everyone here could use some time to rest, we've all been very active the last few days  including today and could use some time to recuperate and eat, before we finish gathering our belongings for  the upcoming journey and depart, the earlier we finish this task the better." "Fatigue simply will not do for an important  task like hunting for an event of this scale."<br>
<br>
Yukan then turned to Masanori and nodded in confirmation that he agreed with Masanori gathering them. "Please let your father know that his generosity is appreciated. Would it be possible for him to provide us with some Metsubushi, ideally large target grade, and powder?, they don't have to be military grade  but, It'd be helpful if the powder provided could include a some additional irritant agents for potency but it's not a necessity, we don't need enough for everyone here, but a few would be strategically advantageous to have it as an option; if it works on helping to subdue criminals, then I could see the benefit in taking some to help us subdue our Toad."<br>
<br>
Letting people contribute in their own way would help group cohesion, Masanori's family could get some credit for their contribution but it would still ultimately be Yukan who made the item request, which was modest enough with his specifications.<br>
<br>
He then looked towards Tadakatsu, and gave him a nod too, "Tadakatsu-san,  all of our fellow clansmen know of your martial ability and sense for the battlefield you showed it earlier with your resolve with your units, and  many times before, you are  well respected, I think that it would be advantageous if you led some training drills before we departed, as I have the utmost trust in your capabilities."<br>
<br>
Regardless of what happened  it was a group effort, and Yukan was not going to assert it was only him even if Masanori had shown questionable skill earlier and the personality, a monied family needed due respect it would also help and placate him if he was able to contribute. Tadakatsu was an obvious choice for what he suggested.<br>
<br>
"As you are all aware , I have some business to attend to at the shrine..before we depart." However Yukan's Nose did twitch a bit as he focused in on a new smell, it wasn't an animal that was already among them. He used <b>Heightened Sense [Smell] F </b>to hone in on Alfis, before looking over that way.<br>
<br>
"It would appear we have ourselves a visitor." He finished up. Ready to see and hear whatever this newcomer would entail before he headed to the shrine.<br>

Longfeather like most raptors and apex predators was all business. Born with a heart as cold as ice, he was powerful, wise, and deadly in equal measures. It was hard to tell the impact or even see much response. At length, Longfeather bowed his head. “Gyoubu no doubt recognizes the value of Sage, even if you have not come into your power yet Mitsunari. Sages are as rare as Shrine Maidens in the a Republic.”<br>
<br>
Gyoubu scowled and added, “But the Tenuki need new blood, pure blood and I was…” She trailed off looking between Longfeather and Mitsunari. “What’s going on here?”<br>
<br>
<br>

Longfeather silently waited for Gyoubu to respond. “A wandering Sage?” She of course knew Mitsunari’s cover story, it had been circulating alone the shrine for a couple of days. “Well it is! The Fifth’s group needs me, not some random Sage who probably rolled out of a Hedge or something.”<br>

Gyoubu blushed and looked away. No one had know of Mitsunari’s slavery. That was the greatest humiliation of the Beastkin to be treated as house pets.<br>
<br>
“Okay…that’s heavy stuff for sure.” She sighed.<br>
<br>
“Mmmm,” Longfeather nodded. “There’s a thought that Mitsunari’s story might inspire the initiates.” Longfeather raised an eyebrow towards Gyoubu.<br>
<br>
“Yes, yes sure, but, but I really want to go out with Yukan. I mean, I want a chance you show off and gain some notoriety. At this point the other shrine maidens will have more, you know accolades than me. It’s not fair. Besides, he reeks of blood. How much can we really trust him. You know the phrases Fox in a Hen House comes from somewhere, right?”<br>

Longfeather nodded. “We each have made imperfect decisions. Once the Aritomo clan of white owls was vast and numerous. We ate Gerbie until there was no more. We killed an entire race in our gluttony. We ate through many of our prey in this way until our ecosystem collapsed. And yet the Tenuki took us in and we became the The Ryozo clan and knew stability and strength using it to support the Koyake Clan.” It was hard to tell who he was preaching to but he made his point and started long at each. Looking to the pair, “You need to find a way forward.”<br>

<br>
<br>
<br>
Indicus thanked the Masanori caravan leader for his hospitality before making his way towards the Shrine of the Fallen Blossom on his way he passed through the town that sat near the shrine. It was upon smelling the many smells of foods he was unfamiliar with wafting into the street set to entice visitors to open up their coin purses. Indicus' stomach having ate primarily travel rations and the occasional rabbit on his journey from Ryken was begging for a proper meal. So after browsing the food stalls he found a noodle dish made with beef and stir-fried vegetables called Yakisoba without missing a beat, he gave the vendor the amount listed for the dish and collected his food.<br>
<br>
After fumbling with the eating utensil the locals called chopsticks much to the amusement of onlookers he finally put his dexterity (Precision D) to good use and managed to figure out the trick to using chopsticks and started eating his lunch as he walked towards the shrine. Indicus was on the edge of the town when he finished his meal and disposed of his dish in a marked bin.<br>
<br>
Indicus jogged down the path and was soon met with a gathering of many beastkin around a field adjacent to the shrine. As he got closer he recognized the Masanori family member from the description he was given by the caravan leader and he also recognized the white tiger beastkin waiting at the edge of the field as someone that was with the same caravan as himself, though they did not talk much. Indicus readied the letter of recommendation he got from the caravan leader as he slowed down stopping near the white tiger beastkin.<br>

The fox smiled politely when Longfeather commented on his power and the growing he still had left to do. Inwardly he was focused more so on the rarity of miko. In his old world they were not so uncommon and could be found at almost any shrine, but perhaps there was more to the role in this world. Which would suggest that the tanuki girl was more valuable than he initially thought. That didn't change the fact that she continued to campaign against him so he would need to use <b>[Kitsune Trickery]</b> again. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I try not to judge people too harshly on a first impression, but I cannot help but shake this feeling that you might be here for the wrong reasons." Mitsunari declared. "Yukan needs someone to support him in his goal, who will put the full weight of their skills and knowledge behind him. While I do not doubt you are a very skilled shrine maiden...all I have heard you speak about is blood rights and...reproduction. It does not sound to me like you're focused on the true task at hand and that could lead to Yukan's failure in this important endeavor."</span> She was young and eager; to prove herself to her peers and to her family, something Mitsunari would have once sympathized with. That wasn't the case now however. This important moment for Yukan was also an important moment for him as well and this little tanuki girl was shortsighted and self absorbed.

<span style="font-size: 15px">Crymaria wrapped in her usual cloak followed the long and windy road that she had been traveling on for some time now. While she was used to colder weather, it was still nice to being dressed in warm clothes. Looking over at Boris as the bear was carrying a rather large amount of supplies that they had been hired to deliver. <br>
<br>
Pausing for a moment, she pulled out the map and looked around, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"We are almost there Comrade Boris," </span>Crymaria stated as she nodded her head, folding the map up and continuing down the path. In truth, she had taken this job to potentially find someone to train her in a martial style of this world. She had heard about the beastmen republic though she had never traveled to it or in it before. Mainly sticking to the Empires in the south and Ryke of course.  <br>
<br>
Boris let out a huff as they continued on their way, making his annoyance with the weight known. As the two followed the path that was on the map to meet up with the caravan in a specific location. Every now and then getting glances from the local beastmen had become an occurrence, though she had grown accustomed to the whole thing rather quickly. <br>
<br>
Eventually reaching the spot marked on the map, she stopped at the gate to a shrine, looking over at Boris, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"Well Comrade Boris, I think this is the place, once we are inside we can get the supplies off." </span>Crymaria stated as she patted the bear on the head before approaching the gate. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"Hello Comrades, I am looking for Comrade Masanori I was told to deliver some supplies." </span>Crymaria called out. <br>

			Upon approaching to investigate, Alfis found what seemed to be a battle in progress. Although there was some difficulty, the Tanuki managed to defeat their Tengu enemies. Though Alfis was more familiar with the man in a more casual environment, he grew more confident as time passed that the stoic and commanding figure was Kiryoku.<br>
<br>
Although he felt slightly awkward and out of place, Alfis chose to approach the group to greet the man. To avoid interrupting and becoming a nuisance, he decided to stand off to the side and make himself as unnoticeable until they were finished with their business.

</blockquote><br>
Kiryoku left Yukan and the other initiates behind as he marched towards the Shrine of the Fallen Blossom on some other sort of business. He paused every now and then to take a swig of his saki. His path meandered and he passed by several different clusters of onlookers. Each time he would pause, say a few words, and move on. It seemed several of the different houses and factions were present and Kiryoku seemed to stumble upon the most important ones. In this way, he ended up passing by Alfis. Like the others, he paused. <br>
<br>
“Gina finally let you off your leash. Good, now go lose your first fifty games as quickly as possible.” He paused peering down at the jug of saki. “Masanori recruited you didn’t he?” Without waiting for an answer, Kiryoku turned and peered back towards Yukan, Masanori, Whiteclaw, and Tadakatsu. He grunted. “Not as useless as I thought.” Shaking his head Kiryoku continued on towards the shrine. <br>
<br>

			Yukan listened to what everyone had to say intently keeping his serious stance.<br>
<br>
Once Whiteclaw stopped talking. He looked over towards everyone and shifted away from the group in as authoritative stance he could muster. <br>
<br>
"Thank you for the brief,  Whiteclaw-sama "

</blockquote><br>
Whiteclaw nodded his head in acknowledgement. The Tengu Ixtal made to say something, but she was silenced by a shake of Whiteclaw’s head. Ixtal dressed in black, complementing her blue-black raven feathers remained half a step behind Whiteclaw. <br>
<br>

"Now then, I think it's safe to say that everyone here could use some time to rest, we've all been very active the last few days including today and could use some time to recuperate and eat, before we finish gathering our belongings for  the upcoming journey and depart, the earlier we finish this task the better.

“Yes commander,” Whiteclaw said, turning to the archers and shadow assassins. <br>

			Yukan then turned to Masanori and nodded in confirmation that he agreed with Masanori gathering them. "Please let your father know that his generosity is appreciated. Would it be possible for him to provide us with some Metsubushi, ideally large target grade, and powder?, they don't have to be military grade  but, It'd be helpful if the powder provided could include a some additional irritant agents for potency but it's not a necessity, we don't need enough for everyone here, but a few would be strategically advantageous to have it as an option; if it works on helping to subdue criminals, then I could see the benefit in taking some to help us subdue our Toad."

</blockquote><br>
“That can be arranged-” Masanori started.<br>
<br>
Ixtal cut in, “We both have metsubushi as well as a few other options. If that’s all you want, we can procure a few more.” <br>
<br>
Masanori scowled but then he caught Alfis in the distance with Kiryoku. “Ah I hadn’t realized Magus Alfis had arrived. He knows magics of the earth.” Masanori gestured Alfis over. <br>
<br>
“And if you need anything else, don’t hesitate to ask.” <br>
<br>
Ixtal glared at Masanori, but if Alfis was a real magus and capable of earth magic there wasn’t much to be said. Such skills were uncommon and a very strong composition of the logistic unit. Whiteclaw frowned as he watched Alfis but made no comment. <br>
<br>
Tadakatsu’s eyes narrowed, but before he could make a comment, Yukan continued. <br>
<br>

			He then looked towards Tadakatsu, and gave him a nod too, "Tadakatsu-san,  all of our fellow clansmen know of your martial ability and sense for the battlefield you showed it earlier with your resolve with your units, and  many times before, you are  well respected, I think that it would be advantageous if you led some training drills before we departed, as I have the utmost trust in your capabilities."

Tadakatsu nodded, “Of course, commander. Unit cohesion and coordination will be vital for our success.”<br>
<br>
Masanori snorted. “Logistics wins wars, not weapons. Speaking of which.”<br>
<br>

			"As you are all aware , I have some business to attend to at the shrine..before we depart." However Yukan's Nose did twitch a bit as he focused in on many new smells. He used <b>Heightened Sense [Smell] F </b>to hone in on them, before looking over that way.<br>
<br>
"It would appear we have ourselves visitors." He finished up. Ready to see and hear whatever would entail before he headed to the shrine.

			Indicus jogged down the path and was soon met with a gathering of many beastkin around a field adjacent to the shrine. As he got closer he recognized the Masanori family member from the description he was given by the caravan leader and he also recognized the white tiger beastkin waiting at the edge of the field as someone that was with the same caravan as himself, though they did not talk much. Indicus readied the letter of recommendation he got from the caravan leader as he slowed down stopping near the white tiger beastkin.

Masanori spoke up gesturing towards Indicus. Dragon kin were rare and Masanori was apparently well acquainted with who was going to arrive and who he wanted in his logistics unit. Indeed, despite only having just been formally confirmed, much was already falling into place. Masanori took the letter but didn’t read it. <br>
<br>
“Indicus will also be joining the Komodo logistics unit. He will serve to defend the unit, plus he will aid in field dressing what we capture and cooking as needed. Like all his kind, he has potent flame breath.”<br>

			Kiryoku left Yukan and the other initiates behind as he marched towards the Shrine of the Fallen Blossom on some other sort of business. He paused every now and then to take a swig of his saki. His path meandered and he passed by several different clusters of onlookers. Each time he would pause, say a few words, and move on. It seemed several of the different houses and factions were present and Kiryoku seemed to stumble upon the most important ones. In this way, he ended up passing by Alfis. Like the others, he paused.<br>
<br>
“Gina finally let you off your leash. Now, lose your first fifty games as quickly as possible.” He paused peering down at the jug of saki. “Masanori recruited you didn’t he?” Without waiting for an answer, Kiryoku turned and peered back towards Yukan, Masanori, Whiteclaw, and Tadakatsu. He grunted. “Not as useless as I thought.” Shaking his head Kiryoku continued on towards the shrine.

</blockquote><br>
It seems that Kiryoku had deemed that he was no longer needed before the discussions involving the Commander had finished, drifting from group to group before eventually reaching Alfis. Although not entirely incorrect, Alfis still had mixed feelings when Kiryoku acted as if he had been tied down until this point. If he were focused only on his goals, he would have ventured out as soon as he deemed himself capable enough to begin gaining experience with the minimal amount of danger involved. Ultimately, he stuck around longer than he should have due to his concerns for his mother and only left upon her insistence.<br>
<br>
Before Alfis could figure out how to formulate a response, Kiryoku turned the discussion to his employment. Giving his affirmation with a nod, though the Tanuki had already turned his head away as he did. In the end, he only replied with a simple "Yes." Alfis ended up getting surprised due to receiving a rare compliment from Kiryoku, even if only indirectly. Perhaps bashful, the Tanuki tried to leave before anyone could think too deeply about it. After a pause, calling out to the man's back, "Things have been too quiet, and we keep ordering more drinks than we need to lately."<br>
<br>

			Masanori scowled but then he caught Alfis in the distance with Kiryoku. “Ah I hadn’t realized Magus Alfis had arrived. He knows magics of the earth.” Masanori gestured Alfis over.<br>
<br>
“And if you need anything else, don’t hesitate to ask.”

</blockquote><br>
It seemed that Alfis' short chat with Kiryoku had made him stand out even further, garnering the attention of Masanori and one of the Tengu he was speaking with. "It's good to see you again, Masanori. You know I'm always happy to be of assistance to a friend," he said as he approached, offering a light smile and polite bow to two men and then the Commander. "A pleasure, Commander." Though not entirely sure his skills were anything to laud over to such a degree, it was clear that Masanori was attempting to curry favor, and Alfis only benefited by assisting him.<br>

			Indicus jogged down the path and was soon met with a gathering of many beastkin around a field adjacent to the shrine. As he got closer, he recognized the Masanori family member from the description the caravan leader gave him. He also recognized the white tiger beastkin waiting at the edge of the field as someone with the same caravan as himself, though they did not talk much. Indicus readied the letter of recommendation he got from the caravan leader as he slowed down stopping near the white tiger beastkin.

It seemed as if Alfis was not the only person Masanori had recruited. Two, or rather three, more unusual individuals were joining them. Both he had encountered during his travels with the caravan.<br>
Indicus came off as a relatively quiet and diligent individual, which gave Alfis a rather good impression of the man. The other two were, of course, "comrades" Crymaria and Boris. Honestly, Alfis had no idea what to make of the two. Humans weren't the majority in the public, even more so those with an animal companion they did not use as a mount or for pulling carts. Boris was well-mannered and respectable, but Crymaria was odd, especially with her insistence on calling others comrades. The way she acted reminded him of his previous life, but he could not say for certain that she was unusual within other human territories. <br>

Indeed, despite only having just been formally confirmed, much was already falling into place. Masanori took the letter but didn’t read it. <br>

Alfis had to force himself to keep a straight face to remain professional when witnessing Masanori's treatment of Crymaria. Indeed, the bear would be received better than the human it travels with when in the Republic. In the end, he looked towards the two and gave them a light bow. "I look forward to working with you again, Indicus, comrade Boris, comrade Crymaria. He also could not fault Tadakatsu's view of the group as they really were conspicuous. <br>
<br>
Although hesitant to create strife within the group as he was just an outsider, Alfis felt the need to speak up regarding some matters. "My apologies if I am overstepping, Commander, but there are some things that I would like to consult with you about."<br>
<br>
"Firstly, The Hill Toads themselves. Aside from their size, Hill Toads are well known to earth magic practitioners for their affinity to the same element. They're used as examples when discussing making the terrain favorable to ones-self. They make use of their affinity to form pitfall traps to catch their prey and form tunnels within their dens. I believe we should make sure we're prepared to deal with any incidents that may occur due to these pitfalls and either prepare plans to flush them out from their dens or prepare a plentiful amount of light sources if we are left with no other choice but to go into their den."<br>

			He then initiated<b> Leadership F </b>for what he was going to say with delegation. "Now then, I think it's safe to say that everyone here could use some time to rest, we've all been very active the last few days including today and could use some time to recuperate and eat, before we finish gathering our belongings for the upcoming journey and depart, the earlier we finish this task the better."

			He then looked towards Tadakatsu, and gave him a nod too, "Tadakatsu-san, all of our fellow clansmen know of your martial ability and sense for the battlefield you showed it earlier with your resolve with your units, and many times before, you are well respected, I think that it would be advantageous if you led some training drills before we departed, as I have the utmost trust in your capabilities."

"Secondly, I believe that there will be some difficulty ensuring that everyone is fully rested while running them through enough training drills that they would be beneficial. While accomplishing both would be best, we are on a schedule. Everyone could likely use more experience working together, especially with the number of houses gathered and a unique target such as a Hill Toads. On the other hand. If we believe we are practiced enough, being in peak condition and rested enough to travel further and faster would likely be our aim. Personally, I find the extra training drills more appealing as they would ensure the safety of everyone more, but I admit it would be more dangerous in terms of finishing the mission in time."<br>
<br>
"That is all, thank you." Alfis awkwardly cleared his throat and stepped back to let the Commander consider his words. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">As Masanori introduced him Indicus gave the group a nod. As Indicus waited around for a proper assignment he noticed a young human woman walking next to a bear carrying a heavy load of supplies. When the woman spoke Indicus noted that she referred to others as comrade. Masanori took note of her but seemed to greet the group as if the young woman was nothing more then a servant. Indicus chose to hide his displeasure at the blatant disregard of the woman as Masanori was his employer and he knew about the Republic's distaste of humans to put it mildly. <br>
<br>
When the Tiger beastkin or Alfis as Masanori called him started to go over the Hill Toads hunting habits. Indicus couldn't help but smile as he was reminded of the salamanders he saw during his first mission for the Ryken adventurers guild. Though these Hill Toads were much more aggressive from what he had gathered from caravan guards he talked to on the trip to the shrine. Indicus listened with both amusement and approval as Alfis interjected with his own opinion on whether or not to do some basic group drills.  It took balls of steel to openly voice your thought to those that were of higher social or military rank. Something that was true both on this world and his old one.</div>

When she told him that he nodded in confirmation.  "Thank you, it sounds like those will do us well then." As long as they were the correct grade and designed for the target size they were dealing with it should be fine.  He also gave a nod towards Masanori  just to show that he understood what he was saying and that he would keep that in mind.<br>
Before once again looking over towards Alfis. If what Masanori said was true then he was also in agreement that they could be valuable for their hunting unit group. It wasn't lost on him what Masanori was trying to do however.<br>
<br>
Yukan also wasn't very impressed with Masanori's scoff, he saw how Masanori performed on the field earlier, not very well in comparison to Tadakasu who had managed to keep his units together, but he didn't express this.<br>
<br>
The fire breather was of interest too, perhaps they could be an asset as Masanori described, Yukan was willing to see what they were capable of.  He then turned to the supplies deliverer, seeing a human was indeed strange right then and there. Yukan wasn't entirely excited about the idea of this human using the bear for a service role, but at the very least he seemed well taken care of, and she cared enough that he didn't have weight on him for too long. For now however he nodded once more.<br>
<br>
"Most interesting.." He said quietly to no one in particular<br>
<br>
"Thank you for the delivery." Yukan said with a slight bow towards Boris, and then Crymaria.<br>
<br>
He also acknowledged Indicus's presence<br>
<br>
He did then turn to Tadakatsu, "I too wonder about some of these selections, for the task at hand, but, these individuals strike me as potentially valuable for our overall goal, I say that we give Masanori-sama  the opportunity to show us some of his strengths, he seems to have a vision in mind that he believes will fit the task at hand  even if a somewhat unconventional one, after all he is vouching for all of these individuals and their usefulness on this expedition are you not? " Yukan replied looking towards Masanori.  Heavily suggesting  that if things didn't go as planned Masanori's judgement would also  be up for scrutiny. It wasn't only Masanori who could play at this 'game'.<br>
<br>
He looked to Alfis and listened to what he had to say as well, once he came over and spoke, hearing him out he might as well he figured, giving him a nod that it was okay for him to tell him what he thought. He was glad to hear him give more insight about the toads than the brief provided, assuming he knew what was talking about this information could be quite helpful.<br>

They're used as examples when discussing making the terrain favorable to ones-self. They make use of their affinity to form pitfall traps to catch their prey and form tunnels within their dens. I believe we should make sure we're prepared to deal with any incidents that may occur due to these pitfalls and either prepare plans to flush them out from their dens or prepare a plentiful amount of light sources if we are left with no other choice but to go into their den."

 "it sounds like we may need to bring some additional Chochins  or vision augmenters then for those who can't see in the dark naturally, I presume it wouldn't be difficult to procure these either as we can the Metsubushi?" Any Tanuki who was with them who had regular eyesight at the very least  possessed a min of <b>Dark Vision F </b>or higher so if they had to go into the den that wasn't the biggest of deals but anyone else that could prove to be a problem. Yukan wasn't really sure if he wanted to spend time on  the logistics of going out of the way to flood the den.<br>

			"Secondly, I believe that there will be some difficulty ensuring that everyone is fully rested while running them through enough training drills that they would be beneficial. While accomplishing both would be best, we are on a schedule. Everyone could likely use more experience working together, especially with the number of houses gathered and a unique target such as a Hill Toads. On the other hand. If we believe we are practiced enough, being in peak condition and rested enough to travel further and faster would likely be our aim. Personally, I find the extra training drills more appealing as they would ensure the safety of everyone more, but I admit it would be more dangerous in terms of finishing the mission in time."

</blockquote>He would tap into<b> Leadership F</b> "I still believe  that we need to run some training drills, so I am pleased to hear that you too see the value in them, and I also agree that time must be taken into consideration for a journey like this, the journey back with the body of the toad to move will be more difficult than the journey forward, and we have a limited time frame as is stated, with this said however, our group cohesion as Tadakatsu mentioned his drills would improve, most definitely requires some attention. It will reduce the chances of injuries or worse yet fatalities. These are incredibly heavy large animals we are speaking of.  It does not only make them more dangerous foes but it will also  likely take us more time to bring the body back, and we need time to hunt to ensure we have a catch, and get back in time for the festival."  "There are also potential traps which we must be wary of as mentioned. We cannot be in a position where we are breaking lines and losing formation  because one of these toads is rampaging through  our lines them or our resolve is shaken when our comrades  start getting hurt, we need to work together as a group between our houses and coordinate our units, and for that reason alone, I would still like Tadakatsu to run some drills to improve this in our hunting group. until we are more comfortable with the concept, within the time constraints we were given, as it stands we will rest before we leave, and do utmost to minimize time spent where we can while meeting these objectives of resting and training."<br>
<br>
He looked at everyone opening the floor up as if to see if anyone else wanted to speak to him. "Unless anyone has any other  matters  they would like to raise, with me now I will be on my way now, and if  not now, do not hesitate to raise it to me later."<br>

If uninterrupted from that point he would  bow towards the group and head towards the shrine:<br>

If someone else had something to say he would wait and hear them out so he could respond.<br>

“You really want to support him? He’s a clueless boy. He doesn’t understand everything, but he’s so pure.“ She sighed. “But how can I trust you? Would you swear an oath?” Her eyes flashed and a wicked smile formed on her mouth. “An oath here in the heart of the Shrine?”</div>

Watching the tanuki shrine maiden interact with the owl made Mitsunari start to wonder what their relationship was like and more importantly what plans or agreements had they made prior to his joining. As they conversed, Mitsunari's own gaze often drifted to the shrine's guardian. In his old life owls were seen as wise creatures and the fox couldn't shake the feeling that Longfeather was doing more than just sitting quietly and letting them go back and forth. So he would need to keep his cards close to his chest.<br>

Masanori nodded. “The Tuskar will arrive shortly with the rest of the equipment. I’ll have the equipment divvied up and assigned to each member.” Even as Masanori spoke, several servants showed up. People from the caravan who worked as merchants, salespeople, and logisticians. They documented and catalogued what Boris had brought. <br>
<br>
“Comrade Boris and Crymaria,” Masanori spoke in the beast tongue. “We can discuss the particulars of the remainder of your assignment shortly, please stand by. If you need a place to unwind and re-equip I’ll have one of my servants escort you now, but if you can wait for us to wrap up here I’ll take you myself.”<br>

When she told him that he nodded in confirmation.  "Thank you, it sounds like those will do us well then." As long as they were the correct grade and designed for the target size they were dealing with it should be fine.  He also gave a nod towards Masanori just to show that he understood what he was saying and that he would keep that in mind.

Ixtal nodded. “Yes, commander.” <br>
<br>
Masanori gave a half smile in response to Yukan’s nod, then he shrugged and frowned looking at Ixtal’s back. <br>
<br>
Ixtal turned, shrugged herself and then disappeared into the shadows and crowds surrounding the field. The other tengu had also disappeared. <br>

			"Secondly, I believe that there will be some difficulty ensuring that everyone is fully rested while running them through enough training drills that they would be beneficial. While accomplishing both would be best, we are on a schedule. Everyone could likely use more experience working together, especially with the number of houses gathered and a unique target such as a Hill Toads. On the other hand. If we believe we are practiced enough, being in peak condition and rested enough to travel further and faster would likely be our aim. Personally, I find the extra training drills more appealing as they would ensure the safety of everyone more, but I admit it would be more dangerous in terms of finishing the mission in time."<br>
<br>
"That is all, thank you." Alfis awkwardly cleared his throat and stepped back to let the Commander consider his words.

Masanori grinned, his humor returned after losing out to Ixtal. “Oh Tadakatsu-”<br>
<br>
“Preposterous!” Tadakatsu cut in, stomping the butt of his spear into the ground, “A soft, wriggling kitten pretends it’s got teeth for a second to usurp my command?” Tadakatsu stares daggers at Alfis, before turning his attention back to Masanori, “This is a farce. You are deliberately trying to ruin this expedition.”<br>
<br>
Masanori flashed that same half-grin again. <br>

			Before once again looking over towards Alfis. If what Masanori said was true then he was also in agreement that they could be valuable for their hunting unit group. It wasn't lost on him what Masanori was trying to do however.<br>
<br>
He also acknowledged Indicus's presence<br>
<br>
He did then turn to Tadakatsu, "I too wonder about some of these selections, for the task at hand, but, these individuals strike me as potentially valuable for our overall goal, I say that we give Masanori-sama  the opportunity to show us some of his strengths, he seems to have a vision in mind that he believes will fit the task at hand  even if a somewhat unconventional one, after all he is vouching for all of these individuals and their usefulness on this expedition are you not?

 "it sounds like we may need to bring some additional Chochins  or vision augmenters then for those who can't see in the dark naturally, I presume it wouldn't be difficult to procure these either as we can the Metsubushi?" Any Tanuki who was with them who had regular eyesight at the very least  possessed a min of <b>Dark Vision F </b>or higher so if they had to go into the den that wasn't the biggest of deals but anyone else that could prove to be a problem.

No one else raised an issue and so the groups dispersed to take care of their various final items. Those new additions had the option of sticking around to participate in the drills, follow Masanori for a great lunch and discuss terms, or visit the Shrine of Fallen Blossoms with Yukan.</span></div>

“So how do I trust you then?” She frowned, bitting her lip. She glanced at Longfeather. “Well?” <br>
<br>
Longfeather’s mouth opened wide, exposing the blade sharp peaks that could rip flesh and snap bone. “It isn’t without risks, but risks that aren’t foolish.” Longfeather scratched at the feathers behind his head with his long, black raptor claws. It looked casual, but those claws were obsidian black daggers that could surgically dissect a prey if desired. <br>

<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/screen_shot_2022-09-06_at_4-08-19_pm-1-png.1044226/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/981/981356-3bc4d9fae7b3b9a3b611b8d246a8d048.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" title="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" width="100" height="101" loading="lazy"></a></b>​</div>Yukan naturally was ready to accept if anyone wanted to join him there, Before he left he put his training Yari in the appropriate spot, and  whether anyone did or  did not join him  he made his way over towards the shrine of the fallen Blossoms in due time, There wasn't that much distance after all between where they had been and the shrine itself, moving as many ft as needed to make it happen, his Fast F probably unnecessary in this case as he moved along gradually. He had a lot to think about, he just hoped that he made some wise decisions back there regarding the extra supplies and what the activities would be. He knew he could only learn with practice but when the stakes were as high as this to help jumpstart his career it was a bit difficult not to feel some anxiety. After all he had large ambitions, and this would help further them no doubt if he could pull ahead. If only things were simpler..all he could do was try his best. Letting the two others assume too much credit was problematic with this sort of position open. And he still thought on what the Fifth had said to him earlier..reflecting on it  some more, he didn't want to be a failure, or at the very least he needed this to succeed if not for himself but for the cultural reasons  and the yield they'd be bringing back, contributing positively  to the clan was definitely something on his mind.<br>
 <br>
He  looked over the shrine when he got closer, it was rather aesthetically pleasing. Ordinarily he may have decided to go elsewhere but he knew that he had business to attend to there, that much had been made clear as he needed to connect with the shrine maiden if his role was to include escorting of any kind. Once Yukan was that close he soon saw Longfeather, Gyoubu, and Mitsunari in relative proximity of one another. With <b>Republic of Kuridan Etiquette F  </b>Yukan bowed out of respect before crossing further into the threshold to meet them. He could tell that some sort of conversation had been going on.<br>
<br>
"Hello Elder Longfeather and Shrine Maiden Gyoubu," He proclaimed, giving a slight smile toward Gyoubu, before his fairly serious resting expression returned. He could tell a conversation had been going on. He then looked towards Mitsunari, the one who he was the least familiar with,<br>
<br>
"If you're here, then you must be that Sage that people have been speaking about, we don't get many of those around Kurdian..It's nice to meet you." Yukan continued. He was intrigued by this figure, indeed what was his story? He was curious to hear what the situation was with the two here, since in the original brief, there had been no mention of the Sage, this had been a development from the word of things, seemed that there may be a shift in plans potentially, as he tried to gage the group.<br>

<span style="font-size: 15px">Crymaria concluded to remove the supplies from Boris' back, setting them off to the side out of the way. When the tiger beastman came over and offered to help Crymaria nodded, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"Any help would be appreciated, comrade. I know Comrade Boris here would be very appreciative as well." </span>She stated, picking up another crate and moving it to the side a bit before setting it down on the ground. However, she didn't really pay much attention to her surroundings as she was there for her job and another task. <br>
<br>
When the tanuki thanked her, she nodded her head, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"No need to thank me, comrade, I was simply doing what I was hired to do. Though I'm sure Comrade Boris is much happier now," </span>she concluded as the bear shook itself probably trying to deal with an itch on its back. That was when their employer spoke up again and several servants showed up to start to deal with the supplies. She glanced over at Boris for a moment before folding her arms across her chest. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"Comrades," </span>she stated in between coughs, though it wasn't hard to tell they were fake. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"But Comrade Masanori we have no qualm with waiting for a few more minutes." </span>She confirmed waiting patiently as the bear started to sniff the air for a moment before laying down on the ground.  <br>

So she had come to her senses after all. It was perfect timing too because not long after he shook her hand, the tanuki of the hour showed up. Mitsunari examined Yukan, casually letting his eyes wander up and down the man’s form while his tails twisted and twirled behind him. The smile he had given the shrine maiden didn’t seem too friendly and perhaps that was a good thing.<br>
<br>
“The man of the hour. It is an honor to finally meet you.” Mitsunari said softly as he bowed his head to Yukan. Now that Yukan was here with Longfeather and Gyoubu he took the moment to appraise everyone. “Fox’s Sight.” He said softly as his eyes flashed yellow. “We were just discussing how we were both looking forward to working under you in the coming trials.” His gaze shifted to the Gyoubu and the fox flashed a charming grin. “But where are my manner? Seikatsu Mitsunari.” He introduced himself properly.<br>

Alfis startled and winced, ears folding back slightly as his tail started to flick due to Tadakatsu's harsh reaction. While he didn't expect his words to be received well, he didn't expect such levels of hostilities when further emphasizing the importance of the man's very own suggestion. Thankfully, Tadakatsu had deemed this a ploy orchestrated by Masanori to overshadow the martial leader.<br>
<br>
"<i>This is why I decided to avoid politics as much as possible.</i>" he thought to himself as he watched the two bicker, sighing.<br>
<br>
Fortunately enough, the Commander seemed to have heeded Alfis' words and made preparations in response. He did not envy the Tanuki's situation, trying to balance the numerous strong personalities while completing such a challenging mission with a strict deadline. Alfis had done all he could in terms of preparations, though, and all that remained was to fulfill his duty to the best of his capabilities.  <br>
<br>
Although Alfis would have liked to join in the drills, especially after causing more conflict due to them, it seemed unwise at this point. Tadakatsu and any of his followers would likely have it out for him, he had a unique skillset compared to the majority, and he likely wouldn't be part of the main fighting force due to his position. In the end, it seemed better to build up his relationship with Masanori further and become more acquainted with the other members of the logistics unit.<br>
<br>
"I'll join as well. Payment aside, it's a good opportunity to get to know each other and figure out how to best work together. I have some questions on top of that." Alfis relaxed, waiting until Masanori was available to proceed.<br>

The Shrine of Fallen Blossoms was busy with parishioners coming to bury their own sacrifices beneath the living, interwoven roots of the dense arrangement of cherry blossom trees. On the outskirts were the lesser families and blood allies, there were a few foreigners. Deeper in were a handful of old shrines with elderly ancestral oracles and novice shrine maidens. These were dedicated shrines for the different families and factions prominent in the territory.<br>

Deeper into the Shrine the cherry blossom trees interwove, their branches forming a solid tapestry of soft white and pastel pinks. There were several paths that transitioned from the outer cloister into the hidden areas where few wandered.<br>

<br>
Finally after weaving through the dense cherry trees and along the paths, Yukan crossed over the final bridge and approached the heart of the Shrine. Rows of trees lined a stairway leading down. The air grew cold and the smell of loam prevailed. <br>
<br>
Purchased upon the stonework before the final door, a door darker than all the others was Longfeather. His massive, black eyes watching Yukan’s approach as easily as the others who were around him. <br>
<br>

			With <b>Republic of Kuridan Etiquette F</b> Yukan bowed out of respect before crossing further into the threshold to meet them. He could tell that some sort of conversation had been going on.<br>
<br>
"Hello Elder Long Feather and Shrine Maiden Gyoubu," he proclaimed, giving a slight smile toward Gyoubu, before his fairly serious resting expression returned.

</blockquote><br>
Elder Long Feather inclined his head towards Yukan, recognizing his presence and the bow of respect that had been given. “We welcome you.”<br>
<br>
Gyoubu’s serious face splintered for a moment at Yukan’s slight smile. Her tail betrayed her more than anything, swishing suggestively twice before calming down. “If it isn’t Yukan, the young commander of the Fifth’s initiates.” She nods deeper than Long Feather had. <br>

			He then looked towards Mitsunari, the one who he was the least familiar with, "If you're here, then you must be that Sage that people have been speaking about, we don't get many of those around Kurdian..It's nice to meet you." Yukan continued.

			Mitsunari examined Yukan, casually letting his eyes wander up and down the man’s form while his tails twisted and twirled behind him. The smile he had given the shrine maiden didn’t seem too friendly and perhaps that was a good thing.<br>
<br>
“The man of the hour. It is an honor to finally meet you.” Mitsunari said softly as he bowed his head to Yukan. Now that Yukan was here with Long Feather and Gyoubu he took the moment to appraise everyone. “Fox’s Sight.” He said softly as his eyes flashed yellow. “We were just discussing how we were both looking forward to working under you in the coming trials.” His gaze shifted to the Gyoubu and the fox flashed a charming grin. “But where are my manner? Seikatsu Mitsunari.” He introduced himself properly.

A feeling of being watched, a prickling on the back of the neck, and chill down the spine. Gyoubu perked up and narrowed her eyes towards Yukan. “Seriously?” Her scowl receded with a deep breath. <br>
<br>
Long Feather gave no indication nor reproach, instead his black eyes twisted as his head turned around for a moment, looking at Yukan from several angles. “Now childe of Tenuki, say what you have come to say and let us progress.” <br>
<br>
Gyoubu had her mouth open to speak again but at the finality of Long Feather’s words, she closed it and looked towards Yukan.</div>

<br>
Five Thousand Peony Blossoms, the Masanori Geisha House,  was situated near the Shrine of Fallen Blossom, downstream and along a meandering path to give it a sense of solemn privacy. As far as taverns, inns, and upscale establishments go, the place was nice. It offered many rooms of private tea ceremonies, geisha companionship, and elaborate meals.  There were several courtyards that the rooms circled. Given the option for solitude or adhoc meetings amongst those in the other rooms.<br>
<br>
Masanori Tashigoto introduced everyone to several different members of his family in short, formal declarations, bowing, and introductions. There was some curiosity amongst the different collection of cousins, blood allies, and connected servants all whom were secondary members of the Masanori clan. As far as founding families go, the Masanori Clan was in the top strata connected to the current Shogun through several pure blood relations. Tashigoto himself was a recognized nephew of the shogun through his mother’s side. Albeit his mother was the sixteenth in line for succession before marrying into the Masanori clan. His father was well positioned, a renowned Master Logistician and a three-dan Igo master. Which is to say many people fawned over Masanori Tashigoto, gave him undeserved complements about today’s war game and even wished him success on the upcoming hunt.<br>
<br>
By extension, everyone in the logistics unit had a halo of goodwill extended towards them. At least in public, everyone wanted nothing but continued success and glory for Tashigoto. None of Tashigoto’s direct siblings were at the Geisha House, but there was five of the family’s personal Samurai. As a casual establishment, the Samurai largely enjoyed themselves. They patrolled casually in pairs with one always in the private room closest to the entrance. The other two sets of pairs would wander around, socialize, and trade glasses of saki.<br>
<br>

<br>
Masanori Tashigoto brought the group to a private room near the middle around the largest of the three courtyards. In the center of the courtyard was three cherry blossom trees and many pink colored lanterns. A pair of Geisha played soft melodies and sang traditional songs. One was a Tenuki and the other a Tengu, both were attractive with beautiful voices and limber fingers.<br>
<br>
“This way please my companions,” Masanori gestured towards the open doors ahead. Within the room was just finished being prepared for a tea ceremony. “Let us enjoy some warm Jade Blooming Tea and light snacks before we talk business and clarify any concerns you might have.”<br>

, Boris you are welcome to join us within for tea or I have taken the luxury of preparing salmon and blackberries for you to enjoy there in the lee of the great stone. Sure enough, near the two Geisha was a large crescent shaped stone with one of the cherry blossom trees hanging over it. It was only five feet from the Geisha and a servant was approaching with a large platter of freshly caught salmon and a mount of blackberries.<br>

Yukan looked at the group once more. He then gave a nod of acknowledgment towards Mitsunari when he introduced himself.  He couldn't help but be curious what sort of conversation had taken place before he showed up. All he had was the context clues to go off of, all he could do was hope that at a minimum it wouldn't harm his chances with his own aspirations given the people's roles here were also important to his success. He gave a cool  collected smile towards Mitsunari upon hearing what they had been talking about, pondering his options about how he wanted to proceed in this conversation.<br>

"Yes Elder Longfeather." He replied his  tone still remaining quite serious at the chide comment.<br>
He then looked back to Mitsunari,<br>
<br>
"Ah, so kind, I hope that I can prove myself worthy of such praise from a Sage such as yourself." He commented on Mitsunari's gracious comment in elevating Yukan. "As you have heard, Koyake, Yukan." he stated formally in the order " It is and honor to meet you too Sage Mitsunari." using the formal title role  and last name as he didn't know him well yet, he was hoping that could change after.<br>
<br>
He smiled a bit more after"Were you now?..that's good timing, I was actually coming here to discuss these prospects myself, I'll try to keep my words concise." wanting to heed Longfeather's words.  However his gaze did fall back on the Shrine Maiden looking back at her in an almost confused way when he saw the look on her face. As a world native Yukan did not have free  natural appraisal, and he wasn't seeming to pick up Mitsunari's use of his ability, so instead what he got from his perspective  was warm reciprocation from the Shrine Maiden followed by a sour face, causing him to pause, but when Longfeather made it clear it wasn't for her to speak up, he didn't say anything more on it either , his face of  visible confusion shifting back to his serious look.<br>
He wanted to be careful with how he spoke, wanting to judge what this new comer thought. Of course people in Kuridan may have heard stories of Kitsune who were mischievous in legend or who operated in discrete ways, but he wanted to see if he could gain some insight on this new comer who it sounded like wanted to work with him based on the suggestion.<br>
<br>
"With Masanori-sama taking on a logistics role, bringing unique figures in this task like an earth caster..and a reptile..It is well known that not only the well being of the festival is greatly impacted by the results of this expedition but there will also be a determining role in who receives leadership in the future..now, I have nothing against Masanori's family, his father a generous man, but I must admit from the start Masanori-sama..I question whether or not his wealth makes up for..other shortcomings." referencing the fact that Masanori by far had suffered in the physical combat tasks. "I for one am of the belief that..those in command should exude qualities held valuable in Kuridan.." indirectly referencing the culture's heavy value on ability to conquer foes and defend the homeland.<br>
<br>
"I am of the belief that you, Sage Mitsunari, and.."<br>
he'd look over towards the Shrine maiden with a smile once more recovering from the look she gave him earlier it seemed<br>
"Shrine Maiden Gyubou.."  Before he looked back at Mitsunari<br>
<br>
"Could greatly aid in not only this important esteemed task, but perhaps even in the future for the greater good of the Republic of Kuridan of course, I have no reservations about your skill..so I would be most honored myself with your addition." This naturally would require Mitsunari to read between some lines, but if he could, Yukan was agreeing  about him joining him and hoping that he would see things his way, the suggestion being that if he got the command and Mitsunari was an ally, there would be more opportuntities for Mitsunari in the future working with the Koyake clan, himself, and others if he had anything to say about it. He was really going off a hunch but something about this figure, beckoned him, someone who perhaps was ready shake things up if necessary..and no doubt had more power than Yukan's own.<br>

He was well received by the tanuki warrior and that alone would set his mission on the path to success just that easily. As his eyes went back up to meet the gaze of the others, Mitsunari glanced casually in Longfeather's direction. The bird was a fairly impressive specimen based solely on what his Appraisal had revealed and that warranted just a bit more caution while he was nearby which meant perhaps it was time to leave the owl behind. The shrine maiden was all that Mitsunari had anticipated, but not of much interest beyond her title and position. Yukan was in a similar position, but one that had great potential. <br>
<br>
As he listened to the warrior speak, Mitsunari picked up on the subtle wording Yukan used. The man was hinting at a larger picture, goals beyond the shrine and toads. Admittedly he was surprised to see such a beastman looking and thinking so far into the future. Mitsunari might had misjudged these creatures. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I look forward to joining you, Master Koyake."</span>  He chimed as his tails became a bit more active with excitement. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Since there is so much at stake, let us not spend any more time on pleasantries and chit chat. We should find somewhere to discuss your plans for the coming trials."</span> He spoke in a passive manner so as not to seem commanding or making demands of Yukan. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I believe myself and Maiden Gyoubu have a lot to catch up on in regards to the current state of the parties."</span><br>

<span style="font-size: 15px">Crymaria waited until the beastman that had hired her was ready to lead them to their next destination. Gently patting Boris's head until he had signaled that he was ready to move. As the group moved towards the geisha house she noticed that the republic truely looked like the Japan from earth which she was surprised to see in this world. <br>
<br>
As they were lead through by several courtyards, they eventually reached the largest courtyard and were escorted to a room. Crymaria took note of the geisha playing and singing before her employer and then spoke to them once again. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"Hospitality," </span>Crymaria mumbled as she stepped inside of the room looking at the doorway for a moment trying to decide if the large bear would be able to fit through it or not. </span><br>

Though Crymaria once again noticed how Masanori addressed Boris rather than both of them. She quietly took a seat and drank some of the tea as she waited for the talks to begin. </span><br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Alfis</u></span></b><br>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">The Five thousand Peony Blossoms was rather impressive in Alfis' eyes. The surrounding courtyards were well maintained, the building was made of high-quality materials, and the decor remained classy despite the chance to flaunt their wealth. The staff had an air of elegance but not to the point of unapproachability, and although there seemed to be a degree of focus on presentation, the food gave off an enticing smell that promised good things to one's tongue. As someone who aspired to run a business one day, there was much inspiration to be gained from the surroundings. <br>
<br>
As much as he felt the desire to appreciate the Geisha House further and start taking notes, Alfis resisted. He was in the company of his employer and, even more importantly, his employer's family. He tried to be polite and cordial when greeting them and introducing himself, attempting to avoid coming off poorly to any high-class individuals. <br>
<br>
Thankfully, Alfis was soon free of the required social niceties as the group being led into a private room. It seemed as if Alfis had either underestimated Masanori's wealth or his level of interest in those gathered. Geisha were personally prepared to attend to the group, both attractive and skilled in their art. On top of this, snacks and what was likely to be a higher-class tea were prepared. <br>
<br>
 "<i>He really is treating us well. Suspiciously so." </i>Alfis thought to himself. While he'd like to think of himself as a helpful asset, he was aware of his inexperience. Perhaps he was being paranoid, but he couldn't help but feel there was more to this than they had been made aware of initially.<br>
<br>
 Alfis could address these concerns later; there was a process to these things. <i>"It's also better to avoid anything too significant with others around." </i>Alfis side-eyed the geisha as he told himself. Before he got too lost in his thoughts though, he decided to join the rest of the others who had already taken their seats. <br>
<br>
<br>
Although initially amusing, the excessive favoring of Boris compared to Crymaria was beginning to grow uncomfortable. Although he wanted to avoid too much attention by bringing it up directly, he sat next to her, giving a nod of acknowledgment and a soft smile before enjoying some of the tea. After settling in, he decided to open the conversation.<br>
<br>
"I have to agree with Indicus. If it's not a personal recipe, I'll have to hear who your supplier for this is later." Further emphasizing the point, he took another sip. "The Five thousand Peony Blossoms is lovely, with your talents just as much so." Although likely having heard much of the same before, the flattery was customary and emphasized his coming points. "I hope I can perform to a level worthy enough to deserve such treatment." In the end, he couldn't resist making a light jab towards the tanuki, keeping things light-hearted though.<br>

“If that’s his wish. So long as Boris enjoys himself.“ He gestured once towards the Geisha playing, but otherwise allowed Boris to enjoy himself near them. More fish and berries were brought over as well as an extremely large bowl filled with hot tea. <br>
<br>
“Comrade Crymaria, we should talk later about the logistics of the next few days, but for now enjoy. Let us stay present in the moment.” Some squid was brought over, cut in a few different ways. <br>

			He partook in the tea and found it quite good. "This tea tastes wonderful sir, quite a different taste from what is available in Ryken." Indicus complemented actually quite genuine even if it might come off as some attempt to butter his employer up. Out of old habits from a earlier life Indicus decided to scan the room noting any possible exits.

Masanori inclined his head towards Indicus, lifting the tea cup up. “Ryken tea is weak and unsophisticated, they keep it in blocks as a commodity.” Masanori shrugged. “Ryken views itself as consumerism first, which has served it well for such a small country to remain and even thrive.“ Masanori took a sip after inhaling the steam. “In the Republic, we appreciate things for what they are, and seek to see them, know them, and ultimately enjoy them as such.” <br>
<br>
Quick glances would spot three exit points. The main door, a window, and a servant entrance in back. In a pinch, it might be possible to burst through the walls. They don’t look stone, but they are somehow blocking  the sound from the other rooms. Maybe the bamboo is just layered much like their fabled folded blades. <br>

			lthough initially amusing, the excessive favoring of Boris compared to Crymaria was beginning to grow uncomfortable. Although he wanted to avoid too much attention by bringing it up directly, he sat next to her, giving a nod of acknowledgment and a soft smile before enjoying some of the tea. After settling in, he decided to open the conversation.<br>
<br>
"I have to agree with Indicus. If it's not a personal recipe, I'll have to hear who your supplier for this is later."

“We would have to be more than acquaintances for me to share supplier relations.” Masanori‘s face twisted for a moment before resolving back into a smile. “Which would suite me. I’ve heard great things about your inn. Few along the border are so highly regarded. It’s quite difficult to make both Ryken and Republic clients happy.”<br>

Masanori raised the corners of his mouth. “I have no doubts as towards your competencies so long as you have none towards participation.” <br>

A pair of the samurai walked by, hands resting lightly on the hilts of their katanas. They smiled and waved, wandering towards the pair of geisha and Boris. They stopped, sharing a cup of saki with the bear, chatting lightly before moving on. <br>
<br>
The second course of rice balls and curried potatoes followed next by a wide selection of sashimi and edamame. Masanori kept the conversation light, dropping bits and pieces of details about what was to come and why they were all here.</div>

</blockquote><br>
Gyoubu’s tail wagged a little at the smile; she arched an eyebrow. “Indeed.” Her nose flared as she breathed deep. <br>
<br>
Long Feather gave a low whistle. His dark eyes like massive saucers taking in all three before his perch. <br>
<br>
She cleared her throat, straighten up and stretched her arms over her head. Her kimono shifted first one way and then settled back as her arms lowered. “Yes.”<br>
<br>

			"Could greatly aid in not only this important esteemed task, but perhaps even in the future for the greater good of the Republic of Kuridan of course, I have no reservations about your skill..so I would be most honored myself with your addition." This naturally would require Mitsunari to read between some lines, but if he could.

</blockquote><br>
Gyoubu’s lips turned downward, and she scowled as each word fall like a hammer blow. “How great indeed is the wandering sage.”<br>
<br>
Still Long Feather made no further sound nor movement. So still was he that not even a feather stirred. Predators had to be comfortable in their stillness, the silence was their weapon even more so than the razor sharp talons and serrated saw beak. <br>
<br>

			As he listened to the warrior speak, Mitsunari picked up on the subtle wording Yukan used. The man was hinting at a larger picture, goals beyond the shrine and toads. Admittedly he was surprised to see such a beastman looking and thinking so far into the future. Mitsunari might had misjudged these creatures. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I look forward to joining you, Master Koyake."</span> He chimed as his tails became a bit more active with excitement. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Since there is so much at stake, let us not spend any more time on pleasantries and chit chat. We should find somewhere to discuss your plans for the coming trials."</span> He spoke in a passive manner so as not to seem commanding or making demands of Yukan. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I believe myself and Maiden Gyoubu have a lot to catch up on in regards to the current state of the parties."</span>

Long Feather might as well have been a statue for all he moved. Perhaps he wasn’t even breathing; his feathers did not betray him at least. “Your choice is yours and yours alone. In this and in all things, you must seize sente and only relinquish it at your folly.” Long Feather paused, perhaps waiting to see if anyone would speak before he finished. At length, after an awkward amount of time had passed, he said, “You have not lost enough to see the patterns. You do not know what moves are necessary to create life upon the field nor how the infinite simple moves of each breath lead to profound strategy. Two may sit down at the same board and play completely different games. One seeking endless combat, attacking and defending. The other seeks beauty in the patterns of each placement. The do not need to have the same goals nor even play the same type of game yet one will lose and the other win. There can be no ko.”<br>
<br>
And then still waiting to see if anyone would butt in or attempt to fill the void of his words, he spoke again. “Gyoubu may not give you succor, but you are allowed to enjoy her company as a friend might before leaving on a great campaign.” <br>
<br>
Gyoubu’ s face warred with itself. Smile filled joy touched her eyes and lips while something else tried to mute and dampen her posture. Her tail best of all showed her ambivalence. Yet she too waited, even looking at the floor and the walls of the inner sanctum, everywhere and anywhere but at Yukan’s eyes.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"I'll keep that in mind sir." Indicus ignored the soft jab at Ryken and took another sip of his tea enjoying the flavor as a part of his mind wondered if coffee existed in this world. Indicus remembered in his past life he sometimes lived on the caffeinated drink. Indicus decided to look into that when he could and if it didn't he would see if there was a way to create coffee or a similar drink. In fact he somewhat hoped it wasn't created yet or at least widespread as he figured he could make nice money growing and selling the drink on the side.<br>
<br>
Indicus used the plate provided grabbed several pieces of sashimi and even some of the odd pea like vegetable. As he sampled the food he nodded in satisfaction he would defiently have to find out what exactly these foods were and how they were prepared.</div>

He wasn’t about to be outshined there without a reciprocal effort. Regardless something about Mitsunari was of interest to him, if the sage had power it could be beneficial, it was a risk for sure since the Kitsune was an outsider who was traveling the land but Masanori had opted to bring in so many outsiders that at this point, it seemed less problematic. He hoped that the others wouldn't be particularly bothered. He nodded towards Mitsunari,<br>
<br>
“Thank you for accompanying me, I agree there are important matters to discuss.” Seeing Mitsunari’s sign of excitement was probably a good thing.<br>
<br>
Of course this didn’t stop Yukan from  looking  over toward Gyoubu again, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat bad, and her conflicted feelings were obviously apparent, he would be more than happy to spend more time with her.Even so with the current events and needing to stand out more this was a choice he felt inclined to make. It didn't make him feel bad any less  , particularly with how displeased it seemed she was when he talked about the Sage, but that was understandable it was obvious she wanted to come, Yukan would have brought both of them if he could have but knew that wasn't an option in this case.<br>
<br>
Yukan turned to Elder Longfeather and listened  to what he had to say on the matter. He thought to himself and reflected on what was said, not saying anything during the absence of sound in the shrine for that prolonged period of time. Yukan knew it was up to him and he needed to get better to reach his goals. He just hoped he was making the right choice.  <br>
<br>
"Understood Elder Longfeather."  he let out after with a small nod.<br>
<br>
With a lack of alternative actions that Yukan felt was fair he looked towards her, "I...would certainly like to spend time with you, Shrine Maiden Gyoubu, if that would be to your liking, I also understand given these circumstances, your role and pedigree,  if you'd rather not, but irrespective the door will be open on my side of things, should you wish to..and like I said when..I move along hopefully more opportunities will arise where, we can all coordinate, there is no doubt in my mind of your abilities contributing toward greatness. " He stated trying to be tactful, and trying to insinuate that he still valued her, which he did, he hoped that he explained the situation well enough prior that it was nothing personally against her.<br>
<br>
He paused to see if anyone had anything else they wanted to say, if they did not he continued,"Now then as Sage Mitsunari said there are discussions to be had, so I think that I will now  take my leave." He bowed with<b> Republic of Kuridan Etiquette F </b>before he started to make his way out of the shrine back towards the edge of the shrine to further observe what was going on there and hopefully have some interesting conversations with some allies...<br>

Currently the Shrine Maiden still had some growing to do, but he was sure her dedication to this place would limit her and restrict her. Long Feather. The bird was odd and perhaps that came from age or experience, but there were things about him that Mitsunari did not like and in fact made him want to kill the other Sage. The way in which he stared at them and the ramblings which consumed their precious time. Luckily for the owl he had not come here to pluck his feathers  and roast him over a fire.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"May we all meet again."</span> The fox lowered his head as he said his goodbyes to the owl and tanuki, then turned and exited the shrine. His geta clicked on the stone path as he followed behind Yukan. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"You were very well spoken in your farewells, Master Koyake. A trait every good leader should possess."</span> Because his power dwarfed that of the tanuki warrior, Mitsunari made sure not to walk beside him, but behind him just a little so as to seem more subservient. This sort of posture might also make Yukan seem grander in comparison when looked on by others.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"If I may, I am curious as to what this position means to you. What do you plan to accomplish once you have claimed victory in this hunt and proven yourself worthy of the Republic's attention?" </span>He tucked his hands into the sleeves of his kimono and tilted his head slightly to the left in curiosity.<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><br>
<b><u><span style="font-size: 26px">Alfis</span></u></b><br>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px"><i>"I got too excited. Information about his suppliers will obviously be tightly guarded, especially to someone whos only an acquaintance." </i>Alfis thought on seeing Masanori's reaction, mentally kicking himself. "<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">Of course, my apologies. I'd very much like us to continue working together and get to know each other more, regardless of any business.</span>" He said, offering an apologetic smile and lowering his head slightly, leaving it at that to avoid dragging down the atmosphere.<br>
<br>
Alfis wasn't sure, but he considered that the break in character might have been assisted by his refusal to ignore Crymaria as well. While he knew there were incredibly mixed feelings on the topic of human and beast relationships, it was pretty clear that the Masanori wasn't fond of them. One had to wonder why the tanuki would even bother hiring her then, but that was starting to become more apparent.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"If you place that much faith in me, then I have no choice but to do everything in my power to make this a success. Granted, I would have either way." </span>Alfis replied to Masanori's ceaseless flattery with a light chuckle. It seemed that he wouldn't have any concerns when it came to payment, as long he survived that is. He had to wonder whether the other members of the logistics unit had caught on to what they were signing up for yet. If not, he was planning to have a more private discussion with them some times after they were finished here.<br>
<br>
Something that gained Alfis' attention was the samurai that had passed through as they spoke. Nothing was strange about the from the outside, but Boris became the center of attention once again. Although Alfis had spent some time traveling with the bear and was impressed with his discipline and manners, this was becoming excessive. Perhaps he was becoming paranoid, but his eyes lingered a moment longer on the two geisha that remained before switching his focus back to the delicious meal. <br>
<br>
Deciding that he'd like to get to know the other member of the logistics unit, Alfis began speaking once there was a lull in the conversation<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">."We're already somewhat acquainted, but some introductions wouldn't hurt either. Since it was my idea, I'll start. </span>He said, taking a moment to clear his throat.<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)"> I'm Alfis, an earth magus and aspiring chef. Whether you need magical insight, a good meal, or something blasted with magic rocks, I'm your man. I can't guarantee my food will be as good as this, but it'll beat whatever any other group can cook up when we're traveling."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">After seeing that Indicus had been rather quiet so far, Alfis decided to give the Dragonborn an extra chance to get involved. </span><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Indicus, I'll probably be asking for your help with fires. I'm also curious how your breath will affect any cooking." </span><br>
<br>
Soon after,<span style="color: null"> he turns his attention to Crymaria and Boris, having his curiosity peaked by the two. </span><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Crymaria, I'm curious about how you and Boris met." </span>Pausing, he quickly caught himself. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Also, is it fine to just call you both by name?" </span>Although humans were not uncommon, the way Crymaria carried herself and her manners were still unique, so he decided to air on the side of caution. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Indicus listened to Alfis's former introduction and decided to note that the man was a aspiring chef, he would have to ask how to cook or prepare some of the Republic's common cultural dishes at some point.<br>
<br>
Indicus finished his a slice of sashimi as Alfis spoke formally introduced himself and tried to include him in the conversation. "Eh sure, I'll bite. My dragonfire so far has been like normal fire. Though it produces less smoke, is blue with small wisps of silver running through it and is harder to put out through normal means. Something about the fire using ambient mana as part of it's fuel. As for affecting cooking it is hotter then normal fire." <br>
<br>
Indicus went quiet after answering the question to let Crymaria speak, he would be lying if he said he wasn't interested in what the woman had to say. Indicus of course got more of the exquisite food laid before him <br>

<span style="font-size: 15px">Crymaria noticed the small look that her host had given her. When she glanced over at Boris the bear was sniffing the salmon for a moment. Though he quickly started to eat the fish that was placed in front of him as the giant bowl of tea was placed next to him he would sniff the bowl before taking a tentative drink. <br>
<br>
When the host mentioned they should focus on the present she simply shrugged, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"Comrade Masanori, a few days come much sooner than you think." </span>Crymaria stated as she watched the squid be cut into several different pieces. Picking up once of the pieces of squid eating it as her employer once again started to speak. <br>
<br>
As the samurai entered the room and offered Boris the saki, the bear took a sniff before returning to the berries that were still at the table for him. Boris didn't seem to care for the alcohol though was more inclined to eat the food that was in front of him. While he continued to converse Crymaria made mental notes of Masanori. <i><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Very much anti-human in this household it seems, though not entirely surprising. </span></i><span style="color: null">She thought to herself as she took another sip of the tea. </span></span><br>
<br>
When Alfis asked her a question she looked over at the tiger beastman, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"You may do what pleases you, comrade." </span>She responded before he continued to speak. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"Uh, I found Boris as a cub, there isn't much else to say he has been my life long companion." </span>She stated as she looked over at the bear.  <br>

While they were walking along Yukan glanced back  eventually once he was out of the shrine to see Mitsunari was following. This was definitely a good thing as far as he was concerned. He then heard Mitsunari speak up once they were a considerable range away from the pair that Yukan had given his formal goodbyes too. He just hoped that Gyoubu and Longfeather understood his position well enough, it was all he could hope for.  While they walked at a respectable pace he gave a bit of a nod,<br>

"Thank you, Mitsunari. it does not take one long to find out that social graces are pivotal."<br>
 He looked around the surrounding outside area, gazing out at the field where the training that was going on, presuming that he had made the correct decision there after the results of those earlier military drills. <br>
<br>
Mitsunari intentionally staying behind him, did make Yukan feel a bit better in where his assigned position lay,  still completely unaware of Mitsunari's true power. With the shrine now in the background of the pair well enough somewhat in the distance.  <br>

He stopped and turned to face the Sage. He was in thought for a moment like he was trying to craft the sentences just right so that they were perfect.  He then made some eye contact if possible with the Kitsune.<br>
<br>
"I think the best way to describe my aspirations...Mitsunari, do you ever...feel a deep sickness when you look around Kuridan and off to our Eastern border?" He proposed the question back. <br>
<br>
"When I look at the current leadership in Kuridan, while there are a many noble, strong, intellectual figures who remain, there is a deep sense of weakness..petty quarrels...greed, corruption,  corwardice.. those seizing power because of our customs because they can just for their own betterment." Referencing how people could challenge people to combat for various roles via custom.<br>
<br>
"And now in this time of peace between the shogunates, there is another weakness, so I've heard when Kuridan was in the war times of the past  every clan brought their best warriors into the fray, forging new generations of soilders for the betterment of their land, where has that pride gone..where we allow humans of all things to govern our mighty people? Treat them like pets or property..and what do many in our very own society do about it? They are completely complicit. Do they send anyone to retrieve their captured relatives? No. They sit by peacefully and let the humans do as they please with them..it absolutely <i>sickens me</i>" <br>
Yukan spat towards the end of the sentence.<br>
<br>
"The ancestors of time long ago would roll in their graves at such dishonorable cowardly conduct..Did you or my relatives from days of old fight and  die for their clan so that their  family members of the future could be delegated to gladiators, exotic  concubines, or servants? by a race no less  who is so convinced of their superiority that they will enslave and milk the land and enslaved people until there is nothing left?"<br>
<br>
"And we're just expected to stand by while these unforgivable actions transpire...I cannot accept this reality as it stands."  He'd pause, looking at Mitsunari once more before continuing.<br>
<br>
<br>
He tapped into his knowledge of <b>Republic of Kuridan Culture F, </b>"There are institutions and leadership which remain that are only rotting Kuridan to the core.. where it stands we won't see the end of this rampant..illness of bureaucracy unless we proactively take action now... To get to the heart of your question, this seat will serve as a stepping stone in the grander scheme of things, I desire to make real change, and for that, I will need to work long and hard, as  well as find like minded people who will need to respect me..and what better way to gain the respect of through a productive way others than serving? As far as I am concerned it is the way forward for the betterment of Kuridan" He finally finished.<br>
<br>
He wasn't sure how Mitsunari was going to react to all of this, but he spoke how he felt.<br>

When Yukan came to a stop and seemed to be in thought, Mitsunari felt reassured in his choice to back Yukan. Perhaps he was just mulling over his response, but that was a somewhat calculated thing to do. Then the fox's brow lifted in surprise when he heard what it was that Yukan had been preparing to say. To the east was the empire, a place he clearly had no love for so to hear Yukan's intention started with the east was very promising. And Yukan laid bare his plans for the future while airing his grievances with current state of the nation, while sharing with Mitsunari a small bit of cultural information abut Kuridan, while also impressing the kitsune and securing his support.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I see now why the Shrine Maiden was so taken with you, Master Koyake."</span> Mitsunari teased as a playful grin stretched across his face. He would use<b> [Kitsune Trickery] </b>now to persuade Yukan to include him in his plans for the future. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"You are a man of strength and courage who is rightfully unhappy with the way the world is today. The Kuridan is a windmill, stagnant and without purpose, but you are the winds of change."</span> Yukan was all that Mitsunari had hoped he would be and more. Though he was young and had some growing to do, the man's mind was not clouded by the everyday things like greed and fear that sometimes made it difficult for people to take action.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I am very familiar with the horrors of the east and I was greatly disappointed when i came north and found that no one seemed to care beyond saying that they disapproved. Except you. You are the first person I have found to express and interest in saving those wrongfully shackled by the humans and....for that reason I would like to lend you my aide."</span> Mitsunari stepped back and leaned forward, bowing at the waist. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I did whatever it took to escape the east and if you would have me in your service...I will again do whatever it takes to see your dreams of a united Kuridan and an end to slavery come true."</span> Mitsunari wasn't a samurai, he wasn't even a proper citizen of Kuridan, but so this improper oath would have to suffice for now. He just hoped it would make it clear to Yukan how serious he was, even if it was only to further his own goals.<br>

Yukan gaged Mitsunari carefully after he finished speaking, what he hadn't expected was the first comment from Mitsunari, was Gyoubu that taken with him? He might have looked a bit more bashful if this wasn't such a serious occasion.  He did notice the grin, which he was working hard to interpret upon a surface level look but for now he'd wait, so far it was sounding good.  He did his best to correct his  own expression back to it's serious resting state.<br>

</blockquote>He was aware  that his speech had been very visionary orientated but he tried his best to appeal with the logic he knew. Truthfully he knew that he would need to learn more about their history so that he could better defend his position if brought into scrutiny but for now this would do. He  also knew very well that not everyone was receptive to that sort of talk but it seemed like perhaps Mitsunari was. Yukan didn't seem to pick up on the trickery that was being used, after all it was quite a high grade comparatively. Indeed Yukan had growth he needed to make, he had to get more powerful, and obtain more skills.<br>

</blockquote>Hearing that Mitsunari was aware of what he was talking about was unfortunate for Yukan to hear, presumably that meant Mitsunari had witnessed first hand what went over there or worse, Yukan could only speculate based off of what he told him, giving him a nod. <br>
<br>
"If this vision is brought into fruition this  dreadful complicity we both speak of   will be purged from the land  no one will ever have to suffer at the hands of the Eastern Empire ever again." He paused for a moment before continuing turning towards Mitsunari.<br>

"And after all you have said, I cannot see a reality where I could deny someone such as yourself, nevertheless a Sage  to work towards this noble  goal." He reciprocated a bow with <b>Republic of Kuridan F</b>  " I would be most honored to receive your aide, great brave Sage Mitsunari, someone who has fled the East  and lived to tell the tale has only my most utter respect."  <br>
 <br>
The enemy towards their Eastern border would just be the start as far as Yukan was concerned, he did not want to rest easy until every single beast had been liberated around the known world and beyond. He was rather impressed with just how much of his messaging Mitsunari had picked up on, as while he hadn't explictly said it there were most definitely suggestions at a united Kuridan being a viable goal. As it stood while the Shogunates had mutual defense packs and worked together against foreigner invaders, that wasn't enough, the independent  leadership, was proving ineffective as it could be as far as Yukan was concerned. Yukan needed to get it to a point where at the very least the administrative regions could work together in attacking a common enemy as well, but this inactivity, was a cancer that needed to be stamped out..<br>
<br>
He then eventually raised himself once more,  this time with a bit of a cool smile. "There will be much work for us to do then, as I'm certain you are aware..we will need to gather others when the time is right,  and while I agree it has seemed bleak so far, there will be others...which collectively I believe we will all be able to achieve great things." <br>
<br>
Whether Mitsunari was doing it for his own self reasons or not the ultimate end goal was beneficial to Yukan, and Yukan was not below even letting criminals help him for what he considered the greater good.<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 26px"><b><u>Alfis</u></b></span><br>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">Alfis curiously listened as Indicus spoke of his flames. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Hm. The lack of smoke could be either a negative or a bonus taste-wise, based on who you ask. That feature would be convenient for avoiding unwanted attention during travel. The increased heat would take some adjusting, but it could also speed up our food preparation time, especially for such a large group." </span>He shrugs. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"In the end, it's purely speculation, but it's enjoyable to do so nonetheless."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">His eyes widen as Alfis comes to a realization. </span><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Ah. Now that I think about it, I don't know anything about dragon-kin preferences." </span>He eyes Indicus' plate. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"You seem to handle all the meats and vegetables that were served here fine enough. You'll need to tell me about any flavors or spices you or your family like or dislike. Any unique recipes would be appreciated as well." </span>Realizing he was getting too excited, he sheepishly cleared his throat and calmed his tail" <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Of course, I'll owe you a meal for the trouble if you're willing."</span></span><br>
<br>
Once he finished speaking with Incidcus, Alfis turned his attention towards Crymaria, who responded to the tigerkin's question. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"You hear stories like that sometimes, but usually, it doesn't involve a bear." </span>He chuckled slightly. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"It does explain how intelligent and well-mannered Comrade Boris is, though. He still seems to be a relatively competent hunter, if not even more so because of that." </span>Alfis nodded his head towards the bear, still slightly envious of the attention he drew but knowing better than to be.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Speaking of hunting..." </span>Alfis glances between the two with some confusion. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"What are your choices of weapon? I haven't seen any on either of you." </span>While the dragonkin could be more easily explained with his race and claws, the small human girl was not as obvious. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"as long as we're on the topic, we can try to figure out how to best approach this hunt and any..." </span>His eyes momentarily shoot towards Masanori. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Unexpected complications."</span><br>

The two of them seemed to see eye to eye on things and that was all Mitsunari could hope for at this time. Yukan was who he needed him to be and would grow to become what he needed him to be. It would take time of course, but the best plans required patience and while the fox was not particularly fond of waiting, he had other things to occupy himself with in the mean time. So he raised his head and locked eyes with Yukan as the man accepted his help and promised change would come one day. The tanuki was right about them needing allies to bring about that change however. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Shall we reconvene with the rest of your company and prepare for the hunt?"</span> The fox proposed. He had yet to meet the others who would be participating in this endeavor and he was eager to see just what type of people the event had attracted. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"If we are lucky we might find our first potential partners among this crowd."</span> He wasn't too optimistic, but anything was possible, especially if they willed it hard enough. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Indicus smiled as he watched Alfis's excitement about food  and cooking raise to the point he watched the Tiger-kin forcibly settle down his clearly active tail. And so Indicus answered Alfis with a mirthful smile. "I grew up alone in a forest near Ryken so I never had a family per say but that is irrelevant. I'm not picky, I usually just cook my food over a fire and use a few wild herbs I don't rightly know the name of for flavor and if I'm lucky I find some wild peppers, berries, or mushrooms that aren't poisonous or hallucinogens."<br>
<br>
Indicus smiled as memories of throwing up all day from some poisonous berries or seeing things because of some mushrooms played through his mind. "I still remember when I was much younger getting myself sick from some poisonous berry, herb, or other plant fun times."<br>

			<div itemprop="text">
				
					<div class="bbWrapper">The lady kicked at the ashes in the hearth.<br>
<br>
“Are you sure?” A tear stricken Tanuki girl said.  Her tail was tucked under and around her left leg. Her shoulders were hunched and every few seconds she looked to several Tanuki huddled in the corner of the cottage ten feet away.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
“Of course!” Another lady said, laughing and kicking at the roaring hearth, not even bothering to look back at the crying Tanuki  girl. This lady was tall with a messy dreadlock of silver white hair exploding around her face like a bush of angry snacks.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
When the Tanuki girl joined her family in sobbing, the other lady turned around and rolled her eyes. “Don’t be so melodramatic!” She walked over to the vial of mercury looking liquid on the table. “It’s just a prank for my little bro.”<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Looking back and forth between the Tanuki, she threw her hands up in the air. “See! I told you they wouldn't get it." There was a pause as she grew silent. "No, no it's fine." Another pause. “No, I’ll just ki-“ She went silent and stomped her foot on the ground, bursting through the bamboo flooring and a foot of soil beneath. Dirt and bamboo chunks flew everywhere. “Okay, fine-“ A moment of silence. “No seriously, it’s fiiiiine.” More silence. “I’m not mocking you-“<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The lady took a deep breath. She was extremely, ridiculously, flawlessly pretty in a way that defied all convention. It could have been her beauty as much as her insanity that caused the family of Tanuki to be in the state they were. Of course the fact that several of the huddling Tanuki had broken bones and blood leaking from compound fractures could have also played a role.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
At length, the lady with the much too beautiful face turned towards the Tanuki girl. “Here I’ll show you.” <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
With a flick of her wrist, five vials of silvery-white liquid manifested. She walked casually towards the family, and despite the compound fractures and terror on their faces all the males of the family, young and old alike, wagged their tales like the most excited puppy. The women became even more submissive, whining despite the fact the lady was not a Tanuki. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The lady squatted down and poured the gleaming silver-white liquid into the panting mouth of the eldest Tanuki patriarch. The gramps quivered as the lady poured the first vial down his throat. Then the lady took three steps backwards and extended her arms. “Wait for it.” <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Several seconds passed, and the broken bone jumped back into place like the injury was being rewound. In under twenty seconds, he was as goods as new.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
“See? And I always keep my promises unlike some beings. Integrity means quite a lot to my kind.”<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The lady walked towards the Tanuki girl looking at the silvery vial and reached out for it. “It tastes quite good.”<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
“And they…they won’t get…get hurt?”<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The lady turned and smiled a glorious smiled that would make angels jealous and fallen. “Oh they will be right as rain within twenty seconds of drinking the potion.” <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The lady walked over and handed out the other four vials to the wounded males. Sure enough each one healed within moments. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
“Viola!” The lady said laughing with a sound like silver bells. “Promise kept. All wounds gone.”<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The Tanuki girl dried her tears on the sleeves of her kimono.  <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
“C’mon silly,” The lady said. Smiling and patting the Tanuki girl on the back. “Here I’ll help you look pretty again.”<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The Tanuki girl jerked when the lady started applying makeup again but did not resist. True to her claim, not only did the lady help but she demonstrated her pussant skill at disguise. The Tanuki girl looked beautiful and much improved from before or ever. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
“Not bad!” The lady said, smiling like the Tanuki girl was a petulant child that had just come around. The lady even patted the girl’s head. She handed the girl the mercury-like liquid in the vial. “Have fun!” <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The girl gave one last look towards her family. She looked at them for a long time. A few gave her nods and blew her a last kiss good bye. She left, shutting the door behind her and didn’t stop at the sound of cracking bone and whimpers of pain. To her family’s credit, they didn’t cry out like they had the first five times the lady had demonstrated the terms of their deal. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Twenty minutes later the lady left and made her way through the town, whistling softly as she went. She wore a white and pink kimono and many silk scarves that made blending into the crowd of people easier. Eventually she paused near the lee of an old tree and put five more silver-white bottles in a cavity. Then she continued on, veering off towards the hills surrounding the city. About a mile out on a now abandoned watch tower, she perched on the open roof. A mounted spy glass made observing the tree and where the girl had gone easy. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The lady smiled and turned to her easel and started painting a beautiful landscape scene on the large white canvas. She whistled while she worked and paused from time to time to look through the spyglass. Only about twenty minutes later did she resume talking to herself.</div>

He then stopped and once more at this edge and turned back to Mitsunari, making specific note of Tadakatsu.  "mhm..I've yet to gage the receptiveness of many here, I have some thoughts.."  He paused before continuing <br>
<br>
"That Tanuki right there, he is well respected and possess some martial abilities, he showed much more ability than Masanori did during the military training so it only seemed fitting to let him train those who wanted more cohesion." Yukan said softly and to the point. <br>
<br>
He then got a bit closer to Mitsunari and continued. "As much as I respect Tadakatsu  and the others do, he is still a potential obstacle in my goal of getting the attention of Kuridan." He stated quietly.  Before he backed off some.<br>
<br>
"Masanori-sama and Tadakatsu-san  reflect different strengths.Masanori is more wealthy and connected, seems to have a visionary mind and strategy  but lacks in unit cohesion when he took on the role of a captain while Tadakatsu , both of them as I"m sure you understand stand out in their own ways.." He continued with the suggestion in his voice that they were to be looked out for, if they wanted Yukan to secure the position.<br>
<br>
"As a result I let Masanori-sama form the logistics unit as he wished which is why we have some most unusual contributors some of which I mentioned back in the Shrine.. I  understand  the risk involved, but both will more than likely help further our primary objective.." He continued looking towards Mitsunari, hoping this would help catch him up on events.<br>
<br>
<b>Actions:</b><br>
Move as many ft as needed to edge of field, far away from the action but closer than before.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Five Thousand Peony Blossoms, the Masanori Geisha House, was situated near the Shrine of Fallen Blossom, downstream and along a meandering path to give it a sense of solemn privacy. Masanori quietly listened to the three members of the logistics unit chat amongst themselves. He seemed to not mind the attention being off of him. He ate food and made casual comments along with the rest, but mostly he faded into the background.<br>
<br>
Another lighter course of food arrived. Edamame made five ways with different seasonings and spices  accomponanied with different tempura vegetables. It was easier to eat slow, taking bits and pieces in between conversation. Masanori picked at a fried lotus root, nibbling at the pieces as his eyes flickered between the three and the Bear and Geisha outside. Several guests from a different pavilion wandered out to mingle in the courtyard listening to the Geisha play and chatting with Boris in the beastial tongue.<br>
<br>
“In the Republic, man, beast, and beastkin can find a sort of harmony amongst themselves. The balance is not something everyone appreciates. Like the cherry blossom it can be fleeting and easy to ignore, it’s season coming and going in days.“ He took a deep breath, smiling a little turn of his lips, before reaching over and sampling a few pieces of edamame with his chop sticks. He flicked them open with his sharp teeth and placed the skins in a dish for them.<br>
<br>
As the conversation eased towards a lull, Masanori perked up suddenly. “Ah, I have a treat for you. I was waiting to see if our commander for the hunt would show himself, but alas I fear he may be distracted with other concerns.” Masanori shrugged. “Shall we move on to saki and haiku?“<br>
<br>
He raised his eyes as a new geisha was making her way towards them. She had an expensive jug of saki made of pure white porcelain with a moonlight expanse of water and the full moon on its side painted in what looked like silver or possibly mithril. ”I had to pull some favors, but I managed to get us some Pale Moon Saki.” Masanori grinned. “This is the favorite saki of all the Numbered Spears and the one the Fifth Spear loves the most.“<br>
<br>
The Geisha lady was more beautiful than even the two in the courtyard. Her makeup was impeccable and she walked with a slow, graceful elegance that drew everyone’s eyes as she came from the far side of the courtyard towards Masanori’s pavilion. It would be another few minutes as she took her time, building the tension and excitement with her every step.<br>

As he followed behind Yukan he almost forgot why had was here. Who could blame him when this place reminded him so much of the home that he'd left behind. It was nice. But when he heard Yukan speak he was pulled from his day dreaming, back to the reality the he found himself in. His eyes settled upon the figure that Yukan had pointed out. Apparently his skill in combat was nothing to scoff at and it seemed that even as a potential obstacle, Yukan still held the man in high esteem. While Tadakatsu could be useful, Mitsunari had no time for obstacles of any sort. He would have to deal with the man at some point. Masanori. The name was becoming quite familiar to the kitsune and he was already annoyed by the  man who he had not yet met. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Well if they are both potential threats to your cause and plans...we will have to change their minds and ensure they support you just as wholeheartedly as I do."</span> Manipulating such well known and respected figures would require finesse and a delicate touch. Mitsunari only hoped he didn't find more reason to kill them than to enlist them. It seemed there would be more work to do on the political front than he initially anticipated, but the best games required you to do more than just move forward. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I thank you for this debriefing..."</span> He bowed his head in thanks to the Tanuki. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"...shall we look to the hunt now and join your unusual contributors?"</span> His gaze shifted from Yukan to the soldiers as he wondered what other prominent figures would be joining them.</span><br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/aac18cf6-2021-477d-9af6-be150bd47124-1-jpg.1047061/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/984/984191-d9f606b1d91a82458152d06a06d37538.jpg" class="bbImage bbImageAligned--left" style="" alt="aac18cf6-2021-477d-9af6-be150bd47124 (1).jpg" title="aac18cf6-2021-477d-9af6-be150bd47124 (1).jpg" width="100" height="150" loading="lazy"></a><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 26px"><b><u>Alfis</u></b></span><br>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">Alfis' eyes went wide and he struggled to keep from choking on the tea he was sipping while Indicus spoke. Attempting to suppress any coughing and further reactions that would make the conversation even more awkward, he continued to listen to the dragonborn's words. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"I-i...see..." </span>he managed to stutter out before trying to recompose himself.<br>
<br>
"<i>How the hell are you even still alive?!"</i> was all that Alfis could scream to himself mentally. Was Indicus saying that he grew up without parents in some random forest? Was that even possible? How did he survive? He felt a headache forming and rapidly growing with how casual the man was about ingesting poisonous plants. He could only side-eye Masanori while wondering where in the world the tanuki had found the dragonborn.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)"><span style="font-size: 15px">"I'll...be relying on your experience regarding survival skills, then. I've generally kept within a fair distance of any town or city and stuck to the main roads for the most part." </span></span><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="color: null">after struggling to spin the situation positively for a moment, Alfis managed to reply as such. As much as he had many questions for the dragonborn, it was likely not the time or place to go into detail about his history. </span><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"I'll also have to introduce you to the wonderful world of culinary arts after this, even if it's just enjoying the food." </span>Maybe it was a bit condescending, but he couldn't ignore the fact that Indicus mainly knew only knew the taste of fundamental cooking for the most part.<br>
<br>
It seemed that although Indicus had been distracted by his...unique memories of growing up, Crymaria had heard his question regarding their choice of weapons. Although he initially tilted his head in confusion when she said he was looking at her weapons, understanding and curiosity dawned on his face as she elaborated. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Ah, so you fight unarmed. I've heard that's more uncommon for humans than beastkin, so I wasn't sure." </span><span style="color: rgb(209, 213, 216)">Although he had some doubts due to her size, he wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt and also knew that Masanori had decent judgment. "<i>....Probably"</i> he added silently to himself as his gaze wandered back to Indicus. </span><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"I'm curious how your techniques will differ as a result." </span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">As the gap in conversation grew between the sounds clattering of chopsticks and glasses grew, their host took the opportunity to speak up. Though it was not surprising, the mention of fleeting balance did manage to grab Alfis' attention. It seemed the tanuki was alluding to something. Just as quickly, he brought the topic of conversation to saki and, oddly enough, haikus. </span><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"You truly know how to enjoy the finer things in life, sir Masanori." </span>Was all that he could say after hearing that and being met with the rare top-quality saki and equally as talented and beautiful geisha that had just arrived. If not for the fact that he had grown up among them, his inherent struggles with romantic emotions, and his current wariness, he could see himself bewitched by the woman in a short time.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Hm. I must admit, I'm not one for poetry much myself..." </span>Alfis' words trailed off as he considered numerous things. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"I'll make an attempt. However, I will be using your words as inspiration. </span>For a moment, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, taking in the atmosphere of his surroundings. His chopsticks bounced in the air, following the haiku pattern as he chose his words.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)"><b><i>"Balance is fleeting.<br>
The unworthy wither.<br>
Rulers will blossom."</i></b></span><br>​</div><br>
<span style="color: null">Alfis frowned to himself as he considered the end result of his creation. </span><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Maybe a bit too bleak sounding for what should be a festive time and what I was aiming for."  </span><span style="color: null">The tigerkin admitted with a sigh, taking a sip of his tea. </span><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"I would say I favor the balance of peace, but it must also pass. All parts of life operate in a cycle. </span>He continued as he stared into his cup as if looking for answers in it. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"We use that time to determine what's more vital and what we need to grow and continue to improve." </span>Finally, he raises his head with a bittersweet smile. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"And maybe one day we'll have grown to the point where the bloom of peace is strong enough to persist against all.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">Shrugging as if to rid himself of embarrassment, he resumed picking at and enjoying the sashimi and vegetables. He had yet to partake in the sake, but it seemed as if he had gotten drunk off the atmosphere. He had often considered things like this throughout his life, having been burdened with memories of his past life and the duty that came along with it. Although he did not know if he could consider himself close to the young scion, he believed that the man would understand to a degree with the ambitions he seemed to hold. He took a moment to sober himself as he again prepared himself for whatever was to follow in the coming days, if not sooner.<br>

<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/screen_shot_2022-09-06_at_4-08-19_pm-1-png.1047211/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/984/984341-3bc4d9fae7b3b9a3b611b8d246a8d048.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" title="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" width="100" height="101" loading="lazy"></a></b>​</div>Yukan liked Mitsunari's line of thinking. Perhaps the ones he had been discussing would be agreeable to some of his greater aspirations  it wasn't like he had bothered asking either. But then there was the fact that talking about this sort of stuff could be quite risky, and it meant that he'd need to convince them why he was suited for the role compared to either of them. Perhaps one or the other would be open to joining up even if he continued to try his best to secure the position. He felt like someone like Tadakatsu might feel as in dignified as he did on the issue of beast slavery in the realm , but  for Masanori he wasn't sure if he was the type would be willing to follow Yukan in what would ultimately become a large scale armed conflict in the future more than likely if Yukan had things his way. Masanori hadn't exactly shown a quality that he would be willing to sacrifice his life earlier when he used his unit to hide behind Tadakatsu's..indeed this one was more problematic, Yukan couldn't help but wonder if he fell into the category of person who had tainted the Republic of Kuridan as he discussed..no matter.<br>
<br>
Yukan nodded at Mitsunari's words. "Indeed, perhaps when the time is right that would be something we should try of course I am sure you're aware there are risks involved with the business we are discussing, we must be selective with who we share the full story with... there may be a chance we can turn obstacles into allies however..if we share enough to get them working with us." If Mitsunari was hearing what he was trying to convey he was saying they should be selective with who they share the portion about Uniting Kuridan with this early on in these stages as only the most radical would probably be on board with that,  as that could be interpreted as a seditious  plot  towards the current shogunate and leadership  as it was, it was fine to share Yukan's anti slavery aspirations with most anyone more than likely , but they needed to have plans in case they told someone  about the other part of the plan if said person wasn't all to understanding of the aspirations at hand...they would most definitely need to build a support base. <br>
<br>
Yukan bowed back a bit towards Mitsunari after the thank you. "Indeed we should join the others that way you can see for yourself those I speak of and what we are working with." After it seemed like they had discussed what they needed to, Yukan began to made his way to regroup and presumably get the others up to date on Mitsunari and vice versa. This was turning out much better than he could have hoped for with the sage at his side, Yukan was youthful and a dreamer it seemed, even if Mitsunari was working with him for self serving purposes as long as they had some common  goals aligned this would be quite a duo moving forward.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Indicus barely kept himself from laughing at Alfis's reaction to his childhood. It was a common one but did not cease to be amusing as most wondered how he survived. "I'll have to be sure not to disappoint then." Indicus took another bite of the food he had before him. "If you are willing to show me some of your culinary skill I would be more then happy to watch and learn. It would be nice to learn dishes more interesting then roasted meat and wild vegetables." <br>
<br>
Indicus took a small sip of the Sake and had to appreciate the quality though he refrained from having any more lest he impair his awareness and wake up tomorrow with a headache. He noticed the female performer slowly approaching and had to admit she was beautiful but could not tell if she was more or less beautiful compared to the two in the courtyard so instead of pondering local standards of beauty he focused his attention to what he did know, and that was how good the food was.</div>

But it was time to focus his attention elsewhere and on other people. AS they walked to meet with the others, Mitsunari conversed with Yukan and tried to keep the conversations light. He remained somewhat behind the tanuki, keeping up the appearance of subservience and respect. But as they neared their destination, the kitsune's face paled and his heart seemed to stop beating in his chest. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"A geisha house..."</span> He breathlessly said as his eyes took in the building and the sight of the geisha within. <br>
<br>
Memories of his dreadful past life and the many miserable years played back in the fox's head as he stood somewhat paralyzed by despair. His family's geisha house had been like a prison for him and since escaping to this new world he had never thought to visit one. The years he spent playing servant to his sickly older brother were nightmare fuel for Mitsunari now, memories he would happily relinquish if he could. While he stood there with tensed muscles, it was only the sound of happy guests that broke Mitsunari from his dreaming. His ears twitched atop his head and he finally inhaled and let out a heavy sigh. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Damn the gods."</span> He mumbled softly under his breath. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Shall we?" </span>His eyes swept across to Yukan and he flashed a smile at the Commander. Mitsunari headed inside, subduing his hesitation and reluctance as he left his geta at the entrance <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I think I should let you make the introductions, Master Koyake. I might seem like an intruder otherwise." </span>A soft chuckle left Mitsunari as he scratched the side of his head. <br>

He turned back to him, he felt tempted to ask if Mitsunari was alright, but wasn't entirely sure what the reaction was about. If it was something personal he didn't really feel  like it was his place  to ask him in such a public place of all places, particularly since he was trying to get to know the Sage better. Nevertheless he did gage and take note of Mitsunari's reaction. He figured he would tread lightly moving forward on it.<br>
<br>
"Right, wasn't my venue of choice.. If I had it my way, I wouldn't normally step into a place like this, but a many like to gather and socialize at establishments like these.even so.goes along with the territory  of making allies and having important conversations to my understanding " He stated softly the still somewhat serious expression on his face. All of the lonely people who came to these sorts of places didn't help, and tradition or not Yukan couldn't help but wonder about the treatment of the Geisha in places like these, yes they certainly helped the Republic Of Kuridans economy so he was thankful for them in that sense but the rest didn't leave the best taste in his mouth.<br>
<br>
He nodded once more, not entirely sure what Mitsunari had mumbled, " Indeed, I'll introduce you to the rest of our hunting group that only seems reasonable" He knew very well where he was supposed to go now, as he entered the Geisha house with <b>Republic of Kuridan Etiquette F. </b>With the intention of seeking the group out so that he could  first and foremost introduce Mitsunari properly, gazing around the rather impressive space multi-roomed beautiful space  as he started to move through it. There was no denying it that Masanori's blood line  had connections and some impressive worldy things to show for it, but Yukan had a more important task at hand to meet.<br>

			After it seemed like they had discussed what they needed to, Yukan began to make his way to regroup and presumably get the others up to date on Mitsunari and vice versa. This was turning out much better than he could have hoped for with the sage at his side, Yukan was youthful and a dreamer it seemed, even if Mitsunari was working with him for self serving purposes as long as they had some common goals aligned this would be quite a duo moving forward.

Five Thousand Peony Blossoms, the Masanori Geisha House, was situated near the Shrine of Fallen Blossom, downstream and along a meandering path to give it a sense of solemn privacy. As far as taverns, inns, and upscale establishments go, the place was nice. It offered many rooms of private tea ceremonies, geisha companionship, and elaborate meals. There were several courtyards that the rooms circled. Given the option for solitude or adhoc meetings amongst those in the other rooms.<br>

As the pair approached the Five Thousand Peony Blossoms, they found entrance quite easy. They were welcomed by one of the samurai on duty, given suitable deference and escorted through to the courtyard. <br>

			The Geisha lady was more beautiful than even the two in the courtyard. Her makeup was impeccable and she walked with a slow, graceful elegance that drew everyone’s eyes as she came from the far side of the courtyard towards Masanori’s pavilion. It would be another few minutes as she took her time, building the tension and excitement with her every step.

As the trio closed up their conversations, the Geisha slowly made her way across the courtyard. Her painted white face and cherry red lips curved into almost fox-like grin. Certainly it was rare for a Tanuki to have a split tail, and these waved gently behind her slow and languid towards the ground. Her eyes were demurred, down cast as she held the Pale Moon Saki before her. The wealth of that one bottle was on display for everyone to see. All five samurai appeared to watch her passage. Two two Geisha, oddly enough, appeared startled at the newest Geisha to appear, their music fell apart and silence descended in the beautiful Geisha’s wake. Several of the other private pavilions opened their doors, drunken Tanki of middling and higher stations peering out in awe, shock, or thirst. <br>

Masanori opened his mouth several times, seeming to work through what to say. “Honored Guest, Comrade Crymaria this…this…” He took a deep breath, “This saki is worth, no the soul of the Tanuki is in this drink, Comrade. It would bring great shame upon my House if you refused.” He looked around. <br>

			Shrugging as if to rid himself of embarrassment, he resumed picking at and enjoying the sashimi and vegetables. He had yet to partake in the sake, but it seemed as if he had gotten drunk off the atmosphere. He had often considered things like this throughout his life, having been burdened with memories of his past life and the duty that came along with it. Although he did not know if he could consider himself close to the young scion, he believed that the man would understand to a degree with the ambitions he seemed to hold. He took a moment to sober himself as he again prepared himself for whatever was to follow in the coming days, if not sooner.

Masanori flashed a half smile that weakened quickly. He took a deep breath. He looked up and out towards the courtyard, his eyes closing and then he turned back towards Alfis. <br>

“Maybe so. I pray so, peace is good for business, but our House was built upon logistics. It’s a push-pull, I’m afraid. Maybe it will grow though all forests see fires. A healthy burn is said to be good for the ecosystem.” Masanori said, shrugging and looking towards the Geisha with the bottle of the Full Moon Saki. “Regardless, your haiku was brilliant. It is rare for it to both match the occasion and provide the hint of enlightenment.” <br>
<br>
The Geisha bowed over the Pale Moon saki, pouring a glass for each person around the table. the liquid was pale and simmered with a faint hint of silver like it was bathed in pale moonlight. <br>
<br>
Masanori raised his glass, opening his mouth about to give a haiku of his own. <br>
<br>
Just before he raised his cup to his mouth, he paused, his eyes finally finding Yukan and Mitsunari. “Please, commander of the hunt and the Great Sage Mitsunari, I’ve heard so much about!” Masanori raised his cup once more. “Come join us.” He gestured towards the Geisha as she poured out two more cups. <br>
<br>
“A toast and haiku then to what’s to come!” Masanori raised the glass up to everyone now in the pavilion. <br>
<br>
“Blossoms with the fall<br>
A fire blooms in our heart<br>
Pale moon shines on.“<br>
<br>
With that he and the Geisha both raise their cups and drink deeply of the saki.</div>

It was very clear that this figure came from a wealthy family and perhaps that alone made them worth looking into. He followed their guide to the room where their associates were already seated and having a good time from the sound of things. As he used [Appraisal C] on the rest of the group, Mitsunari bowed his head and proceeded to introduce himself. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Greetings everyone. I am Seikatsu Mitsunari, the Sage who will be accompanying you all." </span>His three tails were still, hanging lifelessly behind him as he raised his head back up and turned his gaze back upon the rest of their party. <br>
<br>
Suddenly he caught a glimpse of his brother, a sickly figure skulking in the corners of the room and his eyes widened. He looked to Yukan and then back to the corner of the room and his brother was gone. He felt his heart racing and thought he might die, but he was glad that it was not really his sibling. Perhaps a memory or a waking nightmare. He quickly tried to compose himself and stepped down to join the others. This was surprisingly difficult for the fox. <br>

It wasn't long before he also found himself entering the space, Yukan continued with his <b>Republic of Kuridan Etiquette F</b>  + <b>Leadership F </b>Giving a bow upon his entrance after Mitsunari introduced himself to the group. Yukan was not aware of the extent that thoughts were going through MItsunari's mind regarding his family, irrespective he needed to assert that this was what was going to happen.<br>
<br>
"Indeed, Sage Mitsunari, I would like you to meet Logistician Masanori." He'd gesture respectfully. "Masanori-sama has assembled the team you see before you at this very table, all of them bringing value to the table, the outlook of the hunt is very promising with a team such as this."<br>
<br>
"I Hope that moving forward all of you will accept Sage Mitsunari moving forward as one of our own, given the theme of this year and his abilities, I am certain that he will be most beneficial to our expedition to bring back a toad most suitable for the upcoming festival...Sage Mitsunari can fulfill a support role for our group composition  for healing and then some. as we are all well aware how dangerous these large animals, I truly believe that he will serve a very complimentary role, and I'm certain that you'll feel the same way Masanori-Sama." Yukan continued before finishing up.<br>
"Now then I believe a proper introduction is in order."  the ball was now in the table's court quite literally, wanting the formalities in place, also stepping down so that he could join the others where the festivities were taking place, to sus out a place to go in relationship to the others.<br>

The pair was the same politically polite as Masanori but he noticed the strange behavior from Mitsunari and watched the man glance at something that was not there eyes dilatated. Indicus opted to say nothing about the behavior as he addressed the pair. Using Appraisal on the kitsune granted an odd insight even if it completely failed even giving Indicus a minor headache. Mitsunari was strong at least a magnitude stronger then most in the room if he was to guess. This was mostly confirmed when he use Appraisal on Yukan granting much more information.<br>
<br>
Indicus filed the information away for later and decided to introduce himself. "My name's Indicus, scout, decent fighter, and hunter." It was also time to see how the Kitsune and the Tanuki would react to his relatively rude action.<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Alfis</u></span></b><br>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">Alfis nodded in response to Masanori's words. Realistically, such a thing would never happen, but it is still reassuring to imagine that one day it would. If such a thing did happen, would it create a dull and static world that he was attempting to avoid? He did not know. He could only focus on the present, lowering his head when met with Masanori's praises. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Thank you for your kind words."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">As the Pale Moon Saki was poured for him, Alfis curiously inspected it. The drink was pale and seemed to shimmer lightly. He had to wonder what part of the saki created such a result. If it were back in his past life, he would have been worried that it was detrimental to his health, but one never knew in this world. He was also concerned it was dangerous to his health for other reasons, but he would have to have some faith in his host.</span><br>
<br>
As Alfis raised the cup to his lips, however, the gathering was joined by two more guests. Though he was unfamiliar with the first man, he recognized the furry figure of this hunt's commander. As the man known as Seikatsu Mitsunari introduced himself, he could help but feel a strange sense of vulnerability that his brain soon registered as being appraised. On realizing that, he could only frown at the man's audacity, only able to avoid saying anything as the commander stepped forward and began introductions.<br>
<br>
It seemed that whether he was aware of the exact reason or not, Indicus did not seem to have a good impression of Mitsunari either with his blunt introduction. <span style="color: null">Ignoring his current annoyance, Alfis politely bowed toward the two as he introduced himself again.</span> <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"I'm Alfis, an earth aspect mage and aspiring chef." </span>he gave the same introduction as before, albeit slightly shortened due to his mood and not wanting to repeat himself too much. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Although Sage Mitsunari seems more experienced than myself, I'll assist him how I can and focus my efforts offensively if he will be supporting.</span></span><br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">Although still annoyed at having been appraised and disappointed at having a more experienced mage show themselves, Alfis took a moment to calm himself. Having a Sage around boosted their odds of success greatly and significantly lowered the chances of death or major injury. While this didn't excuse the man's prior actions, it would be best to try and maintain a somewhat stable relationship within the group. On top of it all, the action didn't seem to be particularly malicious, and the kitsune didn't seem to be there entirely. Mistunari seemed distracted and maybe even...anxious about something?<br>
<br>
Whatever it was, Alfis decided he would attempt to start anew with the kitsune. </span><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"If it is not presumptuous, I'd like to learn more about you and your insights into magic, Sage Mitsunari." </span>With a soft smile, he politely lowered his head slightly. Whether or not the kitsune would agree to it, Alfis was content with the fact that he had attempted to reach out to the man. As a bonus, If he succeeded, he likely wouldn't have to worry about any danger or poisons nearly as much.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The logistical unit bonded over several rounds of the Pale Moon Saki. A few may have tried their hands at Haiku and poetry the afternoon gave way to evening, but mostly it was the Geisha that recited Haiku while she played Biwa, plucking the strings with delicate fingers. Her two tales wagged and Masanori explained at one point that not all the Geisha were Tanuki. Indeed, this particular Geisha named <b>Kumara</b> was beautiful, long legged and two tailed, rescued as a cub and allowed to lean into her racial skills. Of course the Geisha in this house only gave succor and company to their patrons; this was not a brothel. There was no darkness nor seedy underbelly at this establishment. It didn’t preclude entanglements from forming, but that was actively discouraged and against Tanuki etiquette at this level of society. That was not to say a companion for such things couldn’t be gotten, it was just done tastefully in private not overtly in public.<br>

<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1670947407938-png.1048154/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/985/985284-56972b41bac21e2a6448ba35e8695112.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1670947407938.png" title="1670947407938.png" width="100" height="155" loading="lazy"></a><br>
<br>
Thus the afternoon was light, filled with jovial conversations, tasty snacks, and delicious bottle of Pale Moon Saki. It was the kind of bright and warm day that should be cherished, one of the few remaining while the Cherrry Blossoms still had not fallen and the terrible cold of the north had yet to fully take root. The food was equally great and a warm fire was kindled in the center of the room as the evenings chill came out. The rounds of the Pale Moon saki came slow and measured, and when those ran out there were lesser vintages, even one from Alfis own inn! It gave Alfis the opportunity to gush about his roots and discuss potential relationships with the Masanori family.<br>
<br>
As evening descended and the sun went below the horizon, the Geisha in the courtyard approached the pavilion with hot steaming tea and ice cold mochi. The platter of mochi was multi colored like a rainbow hinting an array of flavors. The tea filled the room with an earthy, spicy aroma that tickled at the corners of everyone’s minds. Of course at this point with the saki sloshing through everyone’s bodies and the great food, the atmosphere was completely relaxed.<br>
<br>
At first everything seemed fine. There was no reason to be alarmed. The good times seemed ready to roll on. However, when the Geisha pouring the tea approached Indicus a single tear fell down from her right eye. She opened her mouth to try and say something to the dragon kin, but what came out was a spray of silver vomit the splattered over everything. Like living napalm or molten silver, it burned with white hot heat and was almost impossible to dislodge to whatever it touched. The vapor given off as it burned through the table, the floor and even the walls reacted with the intoxication to further eat away at their victims minds. Like parasitic worms, thought became difficult as their brains filled with a fugue.<br>
<br>
Worse as the seconds wore on everything the moften silver vomit touched ignited into flames! The floor, the ceiling, and three of the walls were bathed in silver flame making escaping through the door into the courtyard extremely risky. The only place untouched was the far side of the pavilion where Indicus had earlier spotted a window, which was open to let the night’s breeze in.<br>

</ul>This is a surprise round unless you have a great excuse why you weren’t surprised!<br>
<b>Surprise</b>: characters unaware of the enemy or the direction of attack coming their way are assumed to not be defending against it. In such situations, only certain sense skills or all encompassing defensive abilities used in advance can mitigate this.<br>

Note we are in combat so only 3 actions and ability cool downs are a thing now.<br>

To call them an interesting lot would be generous, but they were unique if nothing else. A dragonborn was a new sight for Mitsunari, but he did not make a big deal of the man's species. It was clear he was not too interested in playing nice, although Mitsunari couldn't tell if that was because his attempt to Appraise the fox would not work or if there were other thoughts swimming around the reptile's mind. Either way his made himself comfortable and was surprised by the response he received from Alfis. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"It is a pleasure to meet you both."</span><br>
<br>
This tiger was a equally as interesting, solely for his use of magic and nothing more. Though his mastery of it was likely not on par with Mitsunari's own, the Kitsune still found engaging with other mages to be a chance to learn and grow his understanding of different forms of magic. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"I would be delighted to discuss such things with you. Perhaps we may even teach each other something new."</span> His tails rose up and started to dance about behind him, their black fur gleaming in the light.<br>
<br>
The kitsune geisha who had been serving the group caught Mitsunari's attention purely for her species. This was technically  only the second kitsune he had meet since coming to this world and if if playing a joke on him, the gods saw fit to make her a geisha. It left him wondering about the truth of the race as he had been told they were revered protectors of the people, but this seemed to contradict that.<br>
<br>
Then as the night seemed to drag on one of the geisha vomited on the table. The substance however was not simply the contents of her stomach or a previous meal, it was some metallic ooze that seemed to burn through whatever it touched. Because he had come here for knowledge and to study Kuridan up close, he had not partaken in the sake to the point of inebriation. He'd only had one drink and after that nursed his cup to appear to be engaging like the others. So as the fire spread he was clear of mind and able to think properly. His first priority was to preserve his life and that of his investment, Yukan, but saving more than just him would go a long way. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><b>"Fox's Gift!"</b></span> Mitsunari targeted everyone at the the table with his healing spell and a green aura would envelop them all.<br>
<ul>

</ul>All that remained was to get rid of the flames that threatened to burn them alive.<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><b> "Fire Coalescence." </b></span>He raised his open palm to the ceiling as he cast his next spell in an attempt to do away with the fire. If everyone at the table was drunk then they might be dangers to themselves with the metal still burning through things. But this was a chance for Yukan to show some leadership and win the admiration of those present. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Master Koyake! Please be careful!" </span><br>

As time went on he was probably feeling a bit buzzed, with some constraint, as he knew that in a drinking culture it was better to drink some than none lest you be the odd one out.  Yukan tried his best to be polite with his etiquette and not cause any problems with the group, wanting to get to know each person there more since they would be working together. Everything seemed to be going fine actually, that was until one of the Geishas suddenly started spewing out some kind of silver all over the place,<br>
<br>
Causing Yukan to jump up from his seat using <b>basic dodge, speed + light armor </b>but unfortunately he was hit due to a low effectiveness score  the illusion working suddenly he felt a deep burning and was downed <b>"AGH"  </b>Everything going dark like he had just passed out hitting the floor hard, but it wasn't long before suddenly he felt himself get rejuvinated and his eyes shot open revealing the fire around him as he felt lingering pain from the illusion where it had hit him, the healing helping quite a bit however to stifle those issues. He felt an unbelievable lack of clarity in his mind as he called out, being fooled by the illusion for the moment.<br>
Trying to get himself up and head away from the fire instinctually. As he called out to everyone not sure about their status so frazzled, <b>"Get..away from her..on me towards the window!" </b><br>
he called out.<br>
<br>
<b>Actions: 1. </b>Attempt to dodge with Basic Dodge, <br>
2. Move towards window away from illusion fire.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">His past life and mistakes as a thief burned one lesson in his mind one he once learned the hard way in a bar after a successful job. It was luck he left that bar without his money and a nasty stab wound in the arm back then. He always made it a point to minimize drinking since. If it was a setting where one was expected to drink, then drink slowly to be polite and never more then a single glass. It was a rule he lived by even in this second life besides intoxication kills most of foods taste, and with all this new food to try he did not want that. Besides the tea tasted great making for a good substitute for alcohol.<br>
<br>
So just before the poor Geisha girl vomited her dangerous payload as she was refiling his tea Indicus felt his instincts scream at him to get out of the way of the girl of course he obeyed them and instinctively dodged (Reflexive dodge F) out of the way. This was when he learned a new lesson as he felt he was not as fast as usual. stuffing yourself  induces a comfortable lethargy that kills your reaction time much like being drunk just without the mental inhibition.<br>
<br>
As Indicus rolled out of the way he felt a searing pain as he was hit that caused him to blank out that was relived by the kitsune mage's healing. After being clear of the girl Indicus glanced around the room the odd colored fire blocking all exits but a window he spotted earlier. Indicus then looked at the Tanuki Geisha curled up on the ground, she looked in pain and a thought occurred to him, 'She's the source of the magic fire?' Indicus felt his mind was moving through a swamp.<br>
<br>
Going on this line of thought he moved towards the girl and with his elbow knocked the lady in the temple in an attempt to render her unconscious without permanent harm. The problem was if this failed he would be hit by the next breath attack for sure.<br>
<br>
Use (Reflexive Dodge F CD 0),  Speed E, -1 Food lethargy (lasts 2 rounds) -1 AOE (Dodge effectiveness 1) Fail<br>
Move towards (NPC Vomiter E - Sawazuki the Tanuki Geisha.)<br>
Attempt to knock out (NPC Vomiter E - Sawazuki the Tanuki Geisha.) Strength E Precision D<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 26px"><b><u>Alfis</u></b></span><br>
<br>​</div>Thankfully time progressed rather uneventfully despite Alfis' paranoia. What he believed would be a drawn-out lunch ended up seeming like it would be an all-day affair. Although he appreciated Masanori's luxurious treatment, he would have rather used the extra time to further prepare for the hunt that puts their lives on the line. Although he was a professional who would fulfill his duty, he would likely think twice before working under Masanori in the future and make clear boundaries on how things would be handled if he did.<br>
<br>
The food was still delicious, and though the others didn't seem particularly interested in conversation, Alfis did manage to find some solace in Mitsunari. The kitsune himself didn't seem interested in more than being acquaintances at the moment, but that did not stop them from having some compelling discussions about their insights into magic. Masanori gave him the opportunity to sell the qualities of his family's inn to the others, which he, of course, took advantage of. Despite his feelings that it was wasteful, he was content.<br>
<br>
Though he'd like to claim that his guard remained raised, Alfis was not as infallible as he attempted to be. Though he did not refuse the pale moon saki, he was still strict enough with himself only to take savoring sips as he ate and make sure to drink water as well. This managed to keep him safe from becoming drunk but had the unintended consequences of eating more than intended and having more frequent bathroom breaks. Soon enough, the sun set, and the time of danger came with it.<br>
<br>
While Alfis did try to maintain his guard to a degree, he still didn't believe anything would happen in what was essentially public still. This, however, was proven incorrect as he soon heard the all too familiar noise of someone vomiting he turned his attention towards. Unlike what he was accustomed to, however, this woman was releasing a silver and vicious liquid from her mouth that was light the room aflame. Before he could fully process what he was witnessing and do more than defend himself by raising his arms to cover his face, the liquid hit him, and his consciousness began to fade.<br>
<br>
Before the darkness could entirely consume his mind, Alfis could feel it being ripped free by what his instincts told him was a magical force. Though it felt like just a moment, he still awoke to the private room having become a blazing inferno and his mind unfocused and unusually hazy. Before he could worry about how he was affected, he needed to get to safety, and luckily Yukan calling out was giving away a good direction towards a window. Managing to stumble up as his body tried to recall how to stand and walk, the tigerkin hurried to join the kitsune and tanuki. <br>
<br>
Once managing to rejoin the two at what seemed to be at least a safer distance, Alfis' muddled brain managed to connect that something was wrong. Although he couldn't give you an exact number due to his current state, he recognized that there were fewer people than there were supposed to be. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"What about...The others...?" </span>he managed to forcefully construct the question between the labored breaths, his mind struggling with even that as he turned back in their direction.<br>

<span style="font-size: 15px">Crymaria still didn't exactly like the employer in her mind at least it seemed like the man had really only hired her because of the Boris. The whole event thus far has been him favoring Boris which in her mind wasn't a bad thing. Though they were both part of a team one wouldn't be able to do much without the other. Having been brought to the house the place seemed rather relaxing, though from her experience thus far she knew that this place wasn't exactly meant for humans. <br>
<br>
As the time went by and drinks were offered Crymaria knew better than to down drink after drink. She didn't want to be too buried into her cup. Taking small sips now and then even after awhile though she started to feel the warmth of alcohol as her body warmed up. When the geisha had entered nothing really seemed off, though she figured the tea was going to help push the effects fo the alcohol away. Though that was soon not going to be the case as she started to vomit a hot liquid from her mouth. <br>
<br>
Instinctively covering her face in the hopes that the liquid would only hit her arms, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"Boris, get us out of here!" </span>Crymaria shouted to her companion as she started to feel like she was drifting off. When she started to hear the voice from earlier though she didn't really know the name of the person. She figured that would be her wait out. Though as the illusion started to set in the fire seemed to be spreading rather fast. </span><br>
<br>
actions:<br>
1. Attempt to block her face from the liquid<br>
2. Move Boris and her toward the window. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Like a spurting geyser or a demonically possessed exorcism the silver fluid splattered everywhere, coating the entire inside of the pavilion in slick mercury that felt like boiling slime or molten marshmallow.  While it burnt exposed flesh and slid into the most intimate of places nothing inorganic was affected. Metal chopsticks and porcelain tea cups clattered to the ground at the force of the spray but nothing melted except for flesh and food. Like digested food, anything edible turned into slurry and bodies clattered to the ground. <br>
<br>
One body didn’t slump to the ground. Mitsunari’s beautiful fur was coated in thick silver syrup. It burned and clung in equal measures, but that didn’t deter him. With a deft wave of his hand and a simple incantation green light flew out of his hands and washed over the fallen members of the logistics unit and Yukan. The green light overwhelmed the silver.<br>

Yukan and Indicus were the first to rouse. Neither seemed aware of the green aura that bleed into the visible spectrum and made obvious that some arcane effect was upon them. They each had a different reaction. <br>

While Alfis and Crymaria were still groggy and coming to, Yukan lead the way as always and approached the window. The flames appeared to devour the walls and ceiling, coming ever closer but never quite reaching the trio. It forked around the table and inched closer along the floor. The flames themselves were pale and glittered more than normal flames but subtle details like that were elusive to those whose intellect had been weakened. <br>

			After being clear of the girl Indicus glanced around the room the odd colored fire blocking all exits but a window he spotted earlier. Indicus then looked at the Tanuki Geisha curled up on the ground, she looked in pain and a thought occurred to him, 'She's the source of the magic fire?' Indicus felt his mind was moving through a swamp.<br>
<br>
Going on this line of thought he moved towards the girl and with his elbow knocked the lady in the temple in an attempt to render her unconscious without permanent harm. The problem was if this failed he would be hit by the next breath attack for sure.<br>

Indicus was powerful and his elbow crushed Sawazuki, The Silver Vomiting Tanuki Geisha. Her face crumbled in, blood flowing from where his scales had ripped off her fur. The force of the blow sent her careening along the floor and towards the flames that never quite seemed to touch her body but they came so very, very close! The heat and radiance of the flames was mesmerizing and comforting in a way that tugged at something now dormant in his mind. Instead, Indicus was left as if something was on the tip of tongue but unable to be given voice. <br>

			Before the darkness could entirely consume his mind, Alfis could feel it being ripped free by what his instincts told him was a magical force. Though it felt like just a moment, he still awoke to the private room having become a blazing inferno and his mind unfocused and unusually hazy. Before he could worry about how he was affected, he needed to get to safety, and luckily Yukan calling out was giving away a good direction towards a window. Managing to stumble up as his body tried to recall how to stand and walk, the tigerkin hurried to join the kitsune and tanuki.<br>
<br>
Once managing to rejoin the two at what seemed to be at least a safer distance, Alfis' muddled brain managed to connect that something was wrong. Although he couldn't give you an exact number due to his current state, he recognized that there were fewer people than there were supposed to be. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"What about...The others...?" </span>he managed to forcefully construct the question between the labored breaths, his mind struggling with even that as he turned back in their direction.

But what about the others? It was hard to say. Masanori and the other two geisha, both the musical Tanuki and aluring Kitsune were sprawled out. Their skin was bubbling from the heat of the silvery, molten syrup. The silver remained, covering them and making it look like there were three artistic installations on the floor instead of three bodies. Indeed, through the mental fog and mire it was hard to be sure that or who or what was that the others? Who were they again? <br>
<br>
The window beaconed. It was not large but large enough to squeeze through with a bit of effort. It wouldn’t take much to knock the panels open and off their tracks. <br>

Through the flames covering the door and out beyond in the courtyard a massive bear stirred. It had naturally given attention to his friend, but this comrade had indeed enjoyed quite a lot of sweet, sweet honey as the night wore on and mixed with saki had dulled the bears normal instincts and sense of danger. Indeed, it wasn’t uncommon for bipeds to make fools of themselves and to partake in unbearable activities. If some crazy two-legged animals wanted to dance around and roll in silver muck, maybe that was normal? <br>
<br>
What Boris did understand as abnormal was Crymaria shouting and requesting for an evac wasn’t something he could ignore. Boris let out a massive roar, rearing up for a moment onto his hind legs. His massive head swiveled around, looking towards the odd silver covered room where Crymaria was. With another growl, he came down onto his forepaws and began to sprint towards the pavilion. This roused the pair of samurai who were patrolling further away. Seeing a thousand pound bear rushing towards Masanori‘s pavilion. Before they could stop Boris, Boris barreled through the courtyard and up the steps and across the threshold. The Samurai were close on his heels. <br>

With a flick of his fingers and the incantation falling from his tongue, fire mana collapsed and formed a void, a depression in the area that called out to the flames. They didn’t flicker nor respond to the call. The magic itself continued to call out but nothing happened. No that wasn’t quite right. The door to the pavilion partially open, obscured by a curtain of flickering flames burst off its hinges and careened through the room. Boris didn’t stop. His head lowered, he roared as he tackled the table out of his way and continued on towards the window. The table slammed against Masanori, pinning his body against the table. <br>
<br>
Seeing one of their masters so casually, the Samurai who had been sprinting behind Boris out of curiosity and suspicion whipped their katanas out and roared in unison, “Assassins! To arms!” <br>
<br>
Further away two more samurai emerged from a couple of hundred feet away near the entrance of the Peony. They ran at a full sprint, their bodies flickering as some sort of ability carried them forward like lightning. Their blades left a contrail in their wakes. <br>
<br>
None of that mattered to Boris. He continued like a catapult through the room of the pavilion and towards the window. His head lowered at the last minute, bursting through the Bamboo like paper. <br>
<br>
The screen, covers, and five feet of the wall fell outside. Cold, fresh air rushed into the room. Freedom beckoned on the other side. A wall of sparse trees and gardens were on the other side. Through the tree trunks one could see a wall that marked the perimeter of the establishment some forty feed away. Beyond the wall was more wilderness and perhaps hills and elevations and was that some sort of watch tower in the distance? Would be be almost impossible to make out with just the pale moonlight save for the fact that silver smoke rose from that direction that seemed to shimmer on its own. Still at over a mile away it was but a spec and a possibility on the horizon for all save the most keen sighted.<br>
<br>
Boris turned, rearing up against the glaring at all those behind. His massive arms went wide and his eyes glared at the samurai behind Crymaria, dangerously close to her with blades drawn. <br>

This spell was a creation of his own mind and had been tried and tested in the past, it should have worked. Unless. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"An illusion." </span>As his fire spell came to and end and the door was thrown off of its hinges by a bear, Mitsunari took a moment to assess the situation with greater care. The silver was real, that he had felt himself which would suggest that it could also be the source of the illusion. His gaze swept across the chaotic scene, spotting Masanori pinned down by the table and then the tanuki girl who had been the one to vomit on everyone. She seemed to be suffering and Mitsunari could only guess she was hexed or cursed by someone to do these things. She needed to be kept alive to give them the answers they would no doubt need to capture the mastermind behind this attempt on their lives, but his healing spell couldn't be cast again.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"Damn it."</span> This little detour was starting to be more work than it was worth for the fox. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">"The flames are not real! It is an illusion! You only need to avoid the silver!" </span>He could do no more with his magic to help the others and instead hoped a simple explanation would suffice in helping to clear their minds. Nonetheless he had to save himself and Yukan. A cloud appeared beneath the fox's feet and he floated above the ground and took but a few seconds to weigh his options. If he left Masanori to die then Yukan may be blamed for the assassination of the other beast and that would be a great hinderance to his plans. And while saving Masanori and not Yukan still presented him a way into Kuridan's politics, he wasn't keen on the rich tanuki after all he'd heard from Yukan. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><i>"Such pests. I'd let you all die if I could."</i> </span>He said softly in the lnaguage of monsters so that no one present would understand him.<br>
<br>
Mitsunari's nimbus floated over to where Masanori was pinned down by the table and he pulled back the sleeves of his kimono. He reached down and grabbed Masanori by his collar and proceeded to pull the tanuki <b>[Superstrength F] out</b> from under the table's weight. He held on firmly to the man and carried him towards the shattered wall. The kitsune breathed heavily as he exited the Peony with Masanori in tow, only to throw the noble to the ground and plop down on his nimbus. He would go back for Yukan if the Tanuki still required saving.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Indicus looked at the flames for awhile, as if they could answer his questions and he only had to reach out but no matter it kept slipping away like a playful wind spirit continually teasing him. After failing to grasp what his instincts were trying to tell him he grunted in frustration. Indicus looked at the Tanuki now clearly knocked out with some blood staining her chin and kimono he found it odd how the flames never touched the woman but his head hurt both from his earlier frustration and the swamp his mind felt like it was moving through. He could only hope he was not attacked because  he didn't know if his reaction speed was up to par at the moment. The good news was that the food induced lethargy was slowly ebbing away. <br>
Indicus walked up to the Tanuki Geisha as he avoided the flames and gently picked her up picked her up. <br>
<br>
Indicus felt cold air rush into the room then turned towards the only exit not covered by flames and noticed the bear Boris had crashed through the walls probably to help Crymaria. The kitsune man's shout about the silver and the flames half got through his head translating to avoid silver in his addled mind something he decided to keep in mind as he ran out of the room jumping over the strange liquid and the surrounding fire as he did with the goal of taking himself and the Tanuki Geisha out of the burning building.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Indicus' actions<br>
<br>
1: ran over to NPC Vomiter E - Sawazuki the Tanuki Geisha. <br>
2: Carefully picked up NPC Vomiter E - Sawazuki the Tanuki Geisha. (Strength E, Percision D)<br>
3: Ran out of the room dodging flames and silver liquid while carrying NPC Vomiter E - Sawazuki the Tanuki Geisha. (Fast F, Jump F, Precision D, Strength E )<br>
Note: Food Lethargy wears off<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 26px"><b><u>Alfis</u></b></span><br>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">One of the members Alfis had been looking for quickly rejoined the group, though in a different way than expected. Barely managing to get out of the course of the bear barreling towards them, an exit was soon made in its size. Although his thoughts were muddled, the creature was familiar enough and...probably not a danger to him? The fox to his side had also begun using magic, and though his intentions were not immediately obvious, the flame that whipped towards him and his following shout explained the man's purpose. <br>
<br>
Illusion? What had that meant again? Right, that the flames weren't real. Though the words were said, the fire was still there, and Alfis felt as if he could feel their heat still. His muddled mind and instincts were at war with one another, stopping him from knowing how to react correctly. Before attempting anything else, he at least needed to try and clear his thoughts. Clenching his fist and digging his claws into his own hand, the tigerkin used the pain to assist while he attempted to <b>[Focus F] </b>and break out of the illusion.<br>
<br>
Regardless of if he succeeded, Alfis could see that the whole commotion had caused a misunderstanding, and they were being treated as enemies. Both the bear and giant lizard were being approached with deadly intentions and something in the back of his head screamed that it'd be bad if a real battle began. Deciding that the giant lizard was in the most danger as he was focused on grabbing something, Alfis chose to try and stall for the scaly man. Running just outside where he could make contact with the earth, he kneeled and began channeling mana into the soil. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"<b>Earth's Fang.</b>" </span>The tigerkin uttered quietly, a lance of earth piercing through the floorboards between the fleeing dragonborn and samurai.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Don't fight!" </span>Alfis cried out desperately to try and have the others de-escalate. He hoped that it would get through to both his companions and the samurai, but it was hard to tell. He wasn't coherent enough to string together more than the two words, and he wasn't sure how compliant the bear would be if its mind was equally affected by the attack.<br>
<br>
<b><u>Actions:</u></b><br>
<br>
1. Attempt to break out of illusion.<br>
2. Move just outside the room into the garden<br>
3. Use <b>Earth's Fang</b> to summon an earthen lance between Indicus and the samurai intending to attack him<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Yukan</b><br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/screen_shot_2022-09-06_at_4-08-19_pm-1-png.1050466/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/987/987596-3bc4d9fae7b3b9a3b611b8d246a8d048.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" title="Screen_Shot_2022-09-06_at_4.08.19_PM-1.png" width="100" height="101" loading="lazy"></a>​</div><br>
Yukan now near the window looked out towards the others. It seemed that all had their own idea of what they needed to do in that moment and were not able to heed his words to move away from the fire or silver and get on him. Even then he didn't really have his wits fully about him in that moment reacting on instinct. Things were getting very out of hand and it was obvious and it didn't seem that everyone was too keen on doing what he said.<br>
<br>
That dragon took the main offending Geisha and was now heading out of the building, Yukan couldn't do much now if that fellow was grouped in with the hostiles. Then again they didn't very well know any of the people who Masanori had recruited, what if one of them were in this attack?<br>
<br>
When he saw the bear and guards barreling through, once they were at a confrontation   he called out  towards them <b>"The Geisha are the main concern! One started this attack!" </b> His mind did not let him explain much more than that to the guards as he was trying to convey who they needed to be looking for rather than what they were doing.  Hopfully they'd listen between Alfis telling them not to fight  and his exclamation. When the casting went off and damaged the building that was not a great sign. The disarray had completely shot any chance of people leaving orderly on him like he had planned. He needed to get out of there as more came and left at the same time as it looked like fighting was about to break out and all he had was his sharp claws to defend himself with should the occasion call for it. IT felt like he couldn't focus appropriately on a single task with so much happening at the same time with no adherence. Thankfully Mitsunari saved Masanori and now Yukan was determined to follow and get out of there  as he started quickly making his way towards the giant hole in the wall trying his best to avoid the silver, heading towards the outside.<br>
He did what he could in that moment without incriminating himself with his limited thinking capacity in that moment, he just needed to get away from the danger. Trying to make his way towards Mitsunari and Masanori, hopefully his mind would clear that way.<br>
<br>
<b>Actions: </b>Move as many actions as needed to avoid silver and head out of the building towards Mitsunari and Masanori after trying to explain to guards what happened while under effects.<br>

			Indicus felt cold air rush into the room then turned towards the only exit not covered by flames and noticed the bear Boris had crashed through the walls probably to help Crymaria. The kitsune man's shout about the silver and the flames half got through his head translating to avoid silver in his addled mind something he decided to keep in mind as he ran out of the room jumping over the strange liquid and the surrounding fire as he did with the goal of taking himself and the Tanuki Geisha out of the burning building.

Pieces of the confusion and fog were receding like fog after it met day break. The warmth of reason, words uttered and half-remember snapshots of his childhood kept flickering through his mind. In some ways the fugue state he found himself was stirring something, taking him deeper within, past and away from the usual places his mind dwelt.<br>

His muddled mind and instincts were at war with one another, stopping him from knowing how to react correctly. Before attempting anything else, he at least needed to try and clear his thoughts. Clenching his fist and digging his claws into his own hand, the tigerkin used the pain to assist while he attempted to <b>[Focus F] </b>and break out of the illusion.</span>

So great was Alfis’ mind that his focus cut through a portion of the fog, which was already beginning to lift. He found more of his faculties arousing. The flames looked off somehow. The heat was brittle and fickle In a way fire should not be. There was more space now. Clarity came back with each breath.<br>

The pair of samurai, with another two thirty feet behind them, slowed. They didn’t stop, their katana’s held out and posed to strike. For a moment, they seemed poised to believe Yukan, but then there was Masanori floating thirty feet in the air upon a cloud held by a kitsune. And a giant bear that had turned and loomed large, claws out. <br>

			Deciding that the giant lizard was in the most danger as he was focused on grabbing something, Alfis chose to try and stall for the scaly man. Running just outside where he could make contact with the earth, he kneeled and began channeling mana into the soil. "Earth's Fang." The tigerkin uttered quietly, a lance of earth piercing through the floorboards between the fleeing dragonborn and samurai.

Jagged fangs of earth ripped through the pavilion floor. The pair of samurai leapt backwards, giving Indicus time to realize what was going on. Indicus moved towards the group, running away from the earth fangs. The pair of samurai were met by the pair behind, turning them into a quad, the fifth the most powerful of the samurai streaked over and joined together, they became a formal unit of troops. Swords drawn, the samurai faced the group. <br>

			"Don't fight!" Alfis cried out desperately to try and have the others de-escalate. He hoped that it would get through to both his companions and the samurai, but it was hard to tell. He wasn't coherent enough to string together more than the two words, and he wasn't sure how compliant the bear would be if its mind was equally affected by the attack.

			When the casting went off and damaged the building that was not a great sign. The disarray had completely shot any chance of people leaving orderly on him like he had planned. He needed to get out of there as more came and left at the same time as it looked like fighting was about to break out and all he had was his sharp claws to defend himself with should the occasion call for it. He started quickly making his way towards the giant hole in the wall trying his best to avoid the silver, heading towards the outside. He did what he could in that moment without incriminating himself with his limited thinking capacity in that moment, he just needed to get away from the danger. Trying to make his way towards Mitsunari and Masanori, hopefully his mind would clear that way.

The lead samurai, and old and wizened Tanuki scowled at the group outside and frowned at the silver substance that clung to everything like a molten lake. All the organic material was in the process of melting away including the bodies of the kitsune and tanuki geisha which had been left behind. “If it is as you say, return Masanori and surrender.” <br>
<br>
“Ha!” Mitsunari laughed, ascending into the heavens with Masanori still clutched in a hand. They rose another thirty feet, now a full sixty feet away. “Like I’d ever surrender to the likes of you. This was all a conspiracy to get me. I’m out of here.” He continued to float away, “You stay there or I’ll drop Masanori.” <br>
<br>
The lead samurai grunted, looking pissed and was about to give up when a cloud of arrows sailed from the courtyard towards Mitsunari. They struck him and his cloud, making bloody holes. Released the Samurai rushed forward and cleared the silver room in blurred leap of speed. They ignored the two melting geisha. Landing one after the other, katanas out they rushed towards the group. <br>
<br>
In that moment the geisha that Indicus held in a headlock opened her eyes. Blood streamed from her partially caved in skull and she opened her mouth hurling out a cone of silver, mercury that caught all five samurai completely unaware. Her eyes looked weird and her body was jerking but not resisting Indicus’ hold on her. With this second stream, her body collapsed and her breathing stilled. Her eyes rolled up into her head and her body shivered as if the life was going out of her. <br>
<br>
For the group thought the second cone of silver vomit, liquid, lava mercury that is was broke the fog and their intellect returned themselves while the unit of samurai seemed to reel in the aftermath. They didn’t pass out but they looked in poor shape, weak and anemic. They blinked lazy eyes as their fur and skin melted.  Flesh boiled in the heat of the breath, and the group outside got to witness what could have happened without Mitsunari’s magical intervention. <br>

It was not to be as she spit out more of that odd silvery liquid. It flew through the air and hit the samurai that were confronting the group thinking them responsible for the events that had played out. When the liquid hit the affected samurai looked weak and their eyes unfocused as they didn't even notice as their bodies melted away.<br>
The scene and knowledge of what could have happened to him had the kitsune not healed sent shivers up his spine clearing any of the remaining fog that addled his mind, Indicus reminded himself to thank the Kitsune mage when he next saw the man. Indicus looked at the now dead geisha in his arms with a sad frown before gently laying the corpse on the ground. <br>
Indicus looked around seeing how many others made it away from the attack. <br>
<br>
Seeing that the was group mostly accounted for save the powerful kitsune sage that healed him earlier Indicus spoke. "How is everyone?" <br>

Before Indicus could wait for an answer his Danger Sense sent shivers up his spine sending the Dragonborn on edge eyes darting around mainly towards the forest nearby. "Keep your guard up something is watching us!  Anyone see anything?"</div>

<span style="font-size: 15px">Crymaria watched as the samurai kept their hands on their blades, as she looked up she saw the kitsune in the air and then he flew up even higher. She wasn't sure what she could do at this point so she focused on what was in front of her. Since she was sure the whole thing was about to be blamed on them by the samurai. <br>
<br>
As the others mentioned something was out there, she started to look around to see what was going on. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"Get ready comrade Boris, things might be a bit more interesting," </span>she warned the bear as she waited for the next move to happen. <br>

He looked up, not pleased by what was transpiring before him, as far as he knew this was an illusion as what was said, but it didn't make the sight any more disturbing, it was hard to know what to believe in that moment.<br>
<br>
He tensed up when he heard Indicus mention the fact that they were being watched, a bit to disorientated to know what was going on. It seemed that perhaps working with Mitsunari was not the best choice, but more importantly what was to happen now? He stood by watching, now his natural claws on standby at the ready to be used to defend himself if need be, who was alive, injured or dead truly? This escalation hadn't done any favors, he stayed his distance, and didn't make any sudden movements or exclamations wanting to make it as clear as possible that he wasn't a threat, until order was returned to this discombobulated environment. <br>

The tanuki's body sailed through the night sky. The arrows stopped, and Mitsunari burst up further up into the air until it was hard make out except for the silver and white from the moonlight reflected on his cloud and even that shrank in the distance. <br>
<br>
Meanwhile on the ground, the samurai's bodies continued to melt under the swirling, coating mercy like silver. Now that the group had command of their mental faculties, it was easier to tell that the vomit was definitely not vomit. The air was filled with the smell of melting hair and bubbling flesh. It was almost like their bodies were being stewed. They moaned and writhed on the ground, unable to see. The silver clung to them like tar. <br>
<br>
Further behind them the bodies of the geisha were nearly slurry by this point, and the geisha in Indicus's arms lay unmoving and slumped to the ground. <br>
<br>
As Masanori's body fluttered through the sky, suddenly a streak of white shot through the air. Whiteclaw's unmistakable body veered, snatching Masanori and snapped open his wings. "Oh, there you are." Whiteclaw landed near Yukon and dropped Masanori on the ground. He gave the smallest inclination of his head to Yukon as a token of respect, before calling out. "Form up hatchlings. Maiden Gyoubu over here, priority is the five bodies." <br>

The ground beneath the rolling, silver cocooned samurais sprouted small flowers. "Reaching to catch the sun's rays." Warm spread across the area and faint, golden light filled the area. "Their blooms praise the fresh spring." The flowers bloomed, spreading yellow pollen into the air. The motes of yellow landed all about and erased the silver with their yellowness. The smell of tulips in sprint filled the area. Without missing a beat, she turned, whispering the same and the room also filled like springtime blooms. While the geisha inside were in a miserable state, flowers filled the area and hugged the bodies, nourishing them. A multicast like that was quite rare amongst Shrine Maidens.<br>
<br>
Walking through the field of flowers still caressing and giving springtime life to the people, Gyoubu didn't even give them another glance. In fact she nudged one of the recovering Samurai's aside with her spiritual rod woven with feathers and relics, so she could make her way to Yukon. She had a radiant smile on, enhanced by the springtime glow. <br>
<br>
The other two owlkin and two tengu landed on either side of Whiteclaw. Ixtal surveyed the forest, furrowing the plumage on its face. Shaking his feathers into a bristle, he grunted. "Something is out there." <br>
<br>
Whiteclaw frowned. "Something delicious." He looked for a moment, "But a distraction." <br>

She frowned, looking back towards Whiteclaw and Ixtal. "Yeah, what's up with that?"<br>

The samurais behind her slowly came to their feet, flicking off the remaining portions of silver and pollen. The coughed out wads of silver but seemed to be rapidly on the mend with each second that passed. <br>

Something interesting had apparently caught quite a few people's attention. Borris' head reared up, snorting and turning his massive head. "Tasty," he said in the language of animals and bears. "What is it? Can I eat it?" He snorted, his nose wrinkling before swinging his massive head back towards the samurai.  <br>

With the presence of Gyoubu and Whiteclaw, the samurai paused in their assault. Now that Masanori was rousing, they seemed torn between continuing the assault and defending their charge. <br>
<br>
Meanwhile, more people poured out of the other private rooms, gawking at the scene beyond. Masanori staggered to his feet, looking around. "Oh," he licked his lips, "This is going too..." He trailed off, biting his lips until they bleed, but the  healing pollen took care of the minor wound within a couple of seconds.</div>

As Yukan started to regain his composure and facilities now that the attacks were ceasing and Masanori had been released finally he paused, seeing Whiteclaw appear before him just like that saving Masanori, that Yukan had hardly had time to react too. He bowed back after with <b>Republic of Kuridan Etiquette F.</b><br>
<br>
He spoke at an elevated volume to anyone who would listen with the new arrivals. "Before I knew what was happening  everything was in shambles, I'm uncertain to the extent this treacherous activity is ongoing, But the bear is not an enemy he was just protecting his companion, and the others who Masanori recruited, they are not a threat as far as I can tell.  it started with the Geisha's and now Mitsunari has shown his colors  I'd be wary of letting any of the Geisha  go far beyond the facility."  Yukan not having his weapons at the ready, steady, had his claws at his disposal to defend himself if need be, so he stood in an active stance, wanting to get this vital information out in a clear and concise way.<br>
<br>
 He then let out a sound of relief slightly upon seeing that Masanori was still alive. He then looked over towards Shrine Maiden Gyoubu, seeing her  get to work just like that, it truly was a sight to behold as she jumped into action, healing people so well with her abilities, her reputation was well earned he could already tell. On one hand while Mitusnari had healed them after the attack had gone off, who knew who had infiltrated or who else was responsible for this attack? Amany questions went through Yukan's head in that moment. Were there any others as part of this conspiracy? Had they wanted to kill Masanori or someone else there or maybe they even had multiple targets?<br>
<br>
Truthfully Yukan was relieved that Gyoubu had shown up. He was awed by the multicast but didn't want to get too distracted by it because something was off, indeed what else was near them?<br>
<br>
"Shrine Maiden Gyoubu, I sincerely thank you for your assistance." He said with an edge of regret in his voice which was also quite serious. He would need to speak to her later on matters now was not the time to say what he wanted to say when they were all still under potential attack.<br>
<br>
Upon seeing Masanori's reaction, whatever had transpired here was going to be particularly bad for Masanori's family as far an incident going so public with all these gawkers.<br>
<br>
Yukan then continued speaking to anyone who would listen to him close by , "The reptile is right there's eyes on us and I'm not entirely sure what they are I just can't seem to focus on them, they could be dangerous." He spoke out sternly and seriously.<br>
<br>
<br>
"We should be vigilant and ready until we know if these are friend or foe, it's difficult to get a number on them like this."</div>

Both Borris and the Avians were entirely fixated on the micro movements within the forest.<br>
<br>
"Gerbie!" Whiteclaw suddenly shouted in glee.<br>
<br>
Now like a burst damn the owlkin and tengu changed thier targets, firing into the forest. The first Gerbie to fall to the ground looked heart breaking in it's innocence and purity.<br>
<br>
This half-mouse, half-lizard creature had large eyes and even in death radiated an air of goodwill. It emitted a sweet smell that reminded all of home.  It smiled sweetly up at everyone as it died.<br>

Blood leaked from her the chest wound. Her heart burst. Her jewel-like eyes remained open staring lifelessly at Ixtal, the tengu assassin.<br>
<br>
Meanwhile Borris pivoted and dove on top of Ixtal. He was all teeth and claw, and Ixtal was rapidly losing both feathers and blood.<br>
<br>
Ooc:<br>
Mammals and reptilians have a desire to protect and generally feel goodwill towards a gerbie while within 100 feet of them unless you actively resist vs Effectiveness 7.... Assuming you want to get rid of the feeling or even realize it is coming from them or why. Assume effectiveness 6 to realize or know if you have appropriate skills or any other relevant reason.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">When Indicus first saw the Girbie the thing caused shivers to race up his spine that was until it came closer and he felt the unsettling little thing was cute and to be protected. Every time he looked at the thing he felt his danger sense go off but at the same time the thing was <s>ugly</s> cute. This back and forth happened in his head for seconds until one of the tengue killed it and he was filled with a need to attack the <s>ugly</s> cute things killer this impulse he couldn't deny so he ran to attack the offender. In his zealotry he did not notice that he stepped on the girbie as it crunched under one-hundred eighty pounds of his weight then came his second realization he could not do much helping with Boris already mauling the  bird man so he stood there for a second thinking and figured the bear was enough to take care of the offender that killed the <s>ugly</s> cute girbie.<br>

He didn't have much to say to Gyoubu in response, thankfully he didn't consider her someone he was concerned about even if he may owe her as she said. She was an ally at least she had seemed to be, he certainly hoped that was the case as he had tried to make it clear to her he wasn't trying to cut her off even if she didn't come along on the hunt.. He'd have to talk to her later if she wanted too. Regardless these developments were quick.<br>
<br>
Yukan also failed the check, naturally not really having a way to resist it and while he felt good will towards the gerbie he didn't exactly feel compelled ot immediately strike down the one who attacked it, but he certainly did not feel good that one was just put down like that just because they happened to be here at the wrong time. Yukan made his way over quickly towards the Gerbies, facing back before those who may want to attack  them at the ready to intervene if need be, deciding that Crymaria needed to tell Boris to stop rather then him try to intervene with the bear, tapping into <b>leadership F </b>as he called out <b>"Crymaria, get him off! All of you think! We're on the same the side! these are but a mere distraction, we're in the midst of a terrorist attack and we have yet to secure the area or find the perpetrator  yet we are fighting with one another, and this is no time for hunting! How can we distinguish ourselves from our ancestors if we give into our base desires at a moment's notice at a critical junction?!" </b>He called out indignantly.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">In retrospect, the situation was much like if an old friend came rushing in and shot your new best friend in the heart. Depending on many factors such as intellectual and moral flexibility, ones reactions to that situation would be different. Regardless, it left a bad feeling in most people's mouths. Setting that aside, the gerbies dwelt in the uncanny valley between both species and did manage to both look cute and unnatural in equal measures. The equanimity with which she died spoke volumes about many things from the nature of the gerbies to the fact that both owls and ravens were predators and scavengers, there wasn't room of pity of their prey in their hearts. The tanuki were like the bear species, omnivores at heart who could afford a shred of pity and consideration for what and when they would eat something. <br>

			Yukan made his way over quickly towards the Gerbies, facing back before those who may want to attack them at the ready to intervene if need be, deciding that Crymaria needed to tell Boris to stop rather then him try to intervene with the bear, tapping into <b>leadership F </b>as he called out <b>"Crymaria, get him off! All of you think! We're on the same the side! These are but a mere distraction, we're in the midst of a terrorist attack and we have yet to secure the area or find the perpetrator yet we are fighting with one another, and this is no time for hunting! How can we distinguish ourselves from our ancestors if we give into our base desires at a moment's notice at a critical junction?!" </b>He called out indignantly.

</blockquote><br>
The samurai had already unscathed their katanas, ready to rush in. Masanori seemed eager to loose them on the birdkin, but with a sigh recalled them. Whiteclaw came to his senses as well. At least there was a measure of taut peace as everyone considered if Yukan really deserved to be listened to or perhaps their was more to gain by ignoring the wishes of the <b>Fifth Spear Kiryoku. </b><br>
<br>
Perhaps sensing this, Gyoubu walked over and laid a hand upon Yukan's back. "Heed your commander you mangy fools." She took a deep breath and exhales slowly, her eyes gleaming like two emeralds in the night. Green light poured forth and washed over everyone Yukan was looking at, which didn't seem to do anything but those who were touched by it felt their strength weaken for a couple of seconds.  <br>
<br>

			In his zealotry he did not notice that he stepped on the gerbie as it crunched under his weight then came his second realization he could not do much helping with Boris already mauling the bird man so he stood there for a second thinking and figured the bear was enough to take care of the offender that killed the <s>ugly</s> cute girbie.

As much as Yukan's words and Gyoubu's eyes had quelled much of the bedlam, Indicus's foot had done the rest. All tension left the situation. <br>

</blockquote><br>
Borris shook himself, sending a spray of Ixtal's blood to splatter all around. With a huff, he walked over to the splattered gerbie and licked it's corpse once. He grunted and then swung his massive head towards Ixtal, snarled once more and then settled behind Crymaria on his haunches, licking himself clean. <br>
<br>
Gyoubu healed Ixtal in another bouquet of sprouting flowers.  <br>
<br>
"They are gone," Whiteclaw said, dashing into the woods. "Impossible, where did they all go?" <br>
<br>
Ixtal dusted herself off and picked at the new feathers growing to replace the ones Borris had ripped off. She scowled, which ravens are particularly adapt at, "I'll take the gerbie back to Long Feather."<br>
<br>
Whiteclaw nodded, "Both of you go, return by morning for the hunt." <br>
<br>
Masanori cleared his voice. "You will not be taking my property. Hunting on my grounds is poaching, the crime is a talon at least." <br>
<br>
Whiteclaw whirled, "We saved you!" <br>
<br>
"That was your duty. Do we reward everyone for doing their job these days?" Masanori chuckled. <br>
<br>
"If it's important to Long Feather, I'll trade you a life debt for it. I was under no obligation to save a Masanori in their own property, I'd say you'd be better off reassuring your guests and talking to your elders. It'd be a pity if you couldn't join us at first light." Gyoubu grinned all teeth and no lip. <br>
<br>
"Deal." Masanori kept a ghost of a smile in return and then signaled to the samurai to retreat. "Reassure the guests. Everything is on the house tonight. One of the geisha drank a bad potion." He gestured and the samurai retreated to mingle with the guests and put people at ease. A few minutes later a crew of labors set to cleaning and repairing the pavilion. Oddly enough there wasn't any damage to the inorganic components, which meant the pavilion was immaculately clean. The only major damage was the pavilion's door and window, but Masanori made no mention of asking for the damages. <br>
<br>
"Commander Yukan," Masanori said, bowing, "I won't gainsay your prisoners. If you want to pursue the issue under your command, it's your right as my commander. At least until the hunt is over."<br>
<br>
Meanwhile, Ixtal and the other tengu moved to retrieve the gerbie. The other owlkin searched the forest but no more gerbie were found. No more attacks or battle was to be found. While rumor and whispers would spread from the patrons, the gawkers had withdrawn with the samurai. More geisha, food, and saki smoothed over Masanori's immediate problems. <br>
<br>
Except for one gawker that stood out more than the rest. <br>

) had been hired by Masanori as the other heavy lifter. The massive human almost looked like a miniature bear himself. His capacity to lift and haul hundred upon hundred of pounds was only exceeded by how cheap it was to hire. Granted by the time Masanori had gone to recruit the pickings had been slim. Still a human was not completely foreign to this part of the Republic with it's proximity to the border of Ryke and the Great Lake, plenty of different races came as tourists and merchants for festivals like the Cherry Blossom Festival. The logistics core was Yukan's opportunity to interact with and command a wide swatch of support personnel, whose unique abilities ofter required a unique leadership skills. <br>
<br>
Hudson was amongst the crowd. He hadn't been hidden per se, but he had been off in another of the small clearings in the center of a collection of pavilions eating and drinking with the human merchant that had brought him over and who was a friend of Masanori Tashigoto. <br>
<br>
Whether or not Masanori would have to deal with further consequences from his family would no doubt depend on the larger situation. Who were the gerbie to incite such a reaction in the avians, and why would Long Feather be so keen for one? What was up with the geisha that vomited liquid silver that burned only living things, ate away at not just the flesh but the mind and body as well? Would Yukan's team ever make it out of the city? Could Yukan keep all these diverse people who seemed to hate each other together? Would they be able to killed a Hill Toad and bring it back without bandits, poachers, or monsters taking them and their trophy? Could they do it in time? Would there be even more complications tomorrow??<br>
<br>
Like all trilogies, the first part of this adventure brought no closure only complications and opportunities. <br>
<br>
For the moment at least, Yukan and his group could take a small breath and consider what they wanted to do tonight and plan for what the morning would bring. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">After the excitement that he had experienced these past hours Indicus decided against any more food or alcohol even as it was freely offered. All he knew now was they had the hunting start the next morning and that he would have to do some major training in resisting illusions and mental influence. It angered him how easily he succumbed to the silver gunk and the gerbie's influence rendering him useless and if he was to find his parents he would inevitably meet plenty of creatures or people able to play with the mind and he could not afford to be rendered a harmless pup to some mages spell or creatures aura. <br>
<br>
<br>
Indicus did not feel like sleeping in one of the fancy rooms for the night so he quietly walked outside and found a nice large tree near the courtyard and climbed up it. He found a crook between a thick branch and the trunk laid down and went to sleep.</div>

<br>
It seemed that things had finally resolved largely as rounds of healing were sent out again by the Shrine Maiden and she helped people to focus on Yukan's words, which again he was quite glad she had come into assist. The fact that Masanori was being the way he was even after his life was saved was pretty predictable and Yukan wasn't the most fond of it all truthfully. Now their time of rest had been thoroughly interrupted before they could go on the hunt. What he didn't really understand was the great allure of the Gerbie. At the very least he had the decency not to ask about damages done to his architecture when it was completely his family's security's fault that they were currently in this mess. He just hoped that there wouldn't be too many hard feelings between the people who had attacked one another in this time of great distress.<br>
<br>
While this event was unfortunate in it's own right he was going to keep this incident  in mind moving forward regarding Masanori who was posturing for the same position as him as it might very well come to his advantage. A bad potion was a<i> likely</i> story Yukan thought to himself, but for Masanori's sake he hoped that it would hold over the people who watched all this violence erupt at a place that was supposed to be peaceful and secure. There were so many things Yukan could have said to further shame Masanori in front of everyone if he really wanted too in that instance as he bowed and spoke to him but instead he did not. He thought carefully before continuing, using<b> Republic of Kuridan Etiquette F</b> to bow back slightly but not as low since he was the commander in that moment, before righting himself.<br>
<br>
After the exchange Gyuobu had with Masanori Yukan got closer to her and said softly, "I apologize." He then had the issue of Masanori who spoke to him,<br>
<br>
" Very well, now that the waters have calmed, I would recommend having your men secure the area, we have no way of knowing who was truly involved in what transpired here, could it have been a mistake? Perhaps, was the fox simply being opportunistic unrelated this incident? Also a possibility, and those Gerbie, so many appeared at once and were gone as soon as they appeared, I would put everyone on high alert, Any Geisha who had recently contact with the one who started vomiting  silver recently, should be questioned until possibilities are exhausted, anyone who is known to be skilled in magic on the premise is a suspect as well regardless of affiliation, you know how these times are becoming more trying.." <br>
<br>
Yukan continued. He did find himself eventually looking over at the large fellow curious about him, yet another human, as long as they weren't promoting humans practicing beast slavery then Yukan was fine with him, though he did stand out quite a bit.<br>
<br>
 If allowed like suggested Yukan would want to help over see that these events took place, before he would rest himself, since it was going to be a long journey soon enough; he was undeterred about getting the main task done  for the clan even after all of that as it was his will to show that he was worthy.</div>

<br>
Yukan should get an upgraded Leadership skill as he used it in so many diverse and creative ways. Great example of how non-combat skills can have a huge role. That’s my +7 Narrator Bonus suggestion.<br>
<br>
Everyone did a great job, despite some shake ups towards the end. <br>
<br>
Yukan made progress towards his goal of establishing himself and learning to be a future leader. <br>
<br>
Indicus made strides to understand his lineage. He’s caught some glimpses into his blood line. More to come in part 2!<br>
<br>
Comrades Borris and Crymaria both worked great together and supported each other. Crymaria is in a great position to earn Asset E wealth in part2.</div>

<b>Aftermath</b><br>
<br>
With the strange events past the group assembled, geisha are looked at with a hint of distrust. Thanks to the villain Mistunari, Kitsunes around the Koyake Clan are looked at with distrust after the recent almost kidnapping of their leader. Though the news has spread of the treachery of Mitsunari, the local region has placed up wanted posters looking for any information on the matter. <br>
<br>
Due to his actions and show of leadership, Yukan has earned some respect amongst those hired to help him along with the Koyake Clan. There are still whispers and rumors that assassins attempted to kill the local daimyo. Security around him has increased due to recent events, with many not fearing that he will be killed if he is left to his own devices. There has been a distrust of outsiders, and anyone not from the clan or local area is viewed as a possible threat. <br>
<br>
