Magistrate Training (Mandatory Event)

[Kuni Yotsuo]

Yotsuo performs in line with his previous efforts throughout the training. He definitely has far more confidence in his own abilities now, even though most of this particular training is outside of his normal comfort zone. With the same level of effort that he has given previously, he shows himself capable of understanding and absorbing the lessons of the different sensei.

[Matsu Qiang]

There was an awkward moment when Matsu Qiang, tracking criminals into the town, led the class to the gambling den that his band of adventurers had discovered a few nights ago.

“There’s criminals in there, I know it,” insisted the young Lion, as the gang members guarding the gambling house glowered at the samurai students. While the Matsu's statement was absolutely accurate, it was, perhaps, not completely tactful.

Fortunately, Utaku-sensei managed to smooth things over by setting Matsu Qiang to ride back to the school as fast as he could… ostensibly as a test of the Lion’s horsemanship skills, but it had the net effect of de-escalating the situation long enough for the rest of the class to continue with their training.

[Soshi Shiso]

Shiso's attention was ever-divided. Hence listening to multiple speech acts at once wasn't much of a problem even if he wasn't trained in it.

Dragon 9. Unskilled Investigation. VP. CR. TN8.: 3d10 16

Being a master of hide-and-seek, Shiso knew where the culprit would be!

Dragon 9. Hunting. CR. TN8.: 4d10o10k3 18

First time on horseback, Shiso still tricked the beast into following the needed direction. Not the orthodox horsemanship, but here you go!

Dragon 9.Unskilled Horsemanship. CR. TN8.: 3d10 17

[Zashi]

Magistrate training, of all things. Zashi was probably one of the last of the students here who would be looked at for the job, never mind that it was one that he had zero interest in. Still, so much of things that he had surprised himself with success were completely out of his supposed bailiwick. Sussing out testimony had been part of Tai Yu-sensei's lessons, and Zashi manages to put those lessons to good use.

While the Kitsunse doesn't have formal training in tracking, the time spent in Kitsune Mori means that many of the signs come off as natural, and with a bit of guidance Zashi proves a very capable student. Then...came the horse.

Zashi looks in the creature in the eye. "Look, we are just going to get through this, alright." The horse makes a snort in response. "Hey! I heard that!" The horse backs away for a moment, recognizing something. Zashi vaults over top, patting the creature. "There we go"

[Bayushi Kaidan]

Kaidan sighed he wanted to learn these skill well, hunting and Investigation. The young bushi tried... he really tried but the fortunes just wanted to make a joke of him. At least he could ride the horse gracefully.

[Utaku Nesrin]

While magistrate was not a path she'd considered, Nesrin was super excited to get to these lessons once she heard that they involved riding. She got there early and did her best to pay close attention. Telling truth from lies was easier than she'd expected, and hunting a good bit harder. That was honestly a bit frustrating. She knew she was following the proper testimony to hunt out the 'criminal.' But the cat standing in for the role wasn't exactly playing along, and was way better at squeezing into small spaces.

She supposed that catching it was probably not that different from catching a person who desperately did not want to be caught. And there was purring as a reward, so that was pretty ok.

And then, there were horses.

Ok, there were ponies. That was fine, they smelled like horses and had velvet soft noses and liquid brown eyes, ears that needed scratching, and manes that needed untangling. They were a breath of home, and Nesrin introduced herself to the star-faced bay with one white sock and a nervous tail. Star (their stablehands was obviously not particularly creative) was a bit skittish, but manageable, and Nesrin clung like a burr as they ran as much as the yard, and the instructors, would allow.

[Kaito Kai]

Kai proved quite adept at the whole magistrate thing. They were particularly taken with the whole novel concept of riding horses, wondering why horses weren't a more common thing in Phoenix lands.

Had Kai identified as female at this point in their life, this might have been the start of being a "horse girl".
