(Day 1, LN) Midnight Tea - Minor Clans

[Vutall]

"I am the Emerald Champion, Doji Satsume. I need you all to ensure that Hitoshi, another Mantis, is able to undergo his gempuku."

[Toritaka Sasaiko]

Taking no chances, Sasaiko prostrates herself.

(Got a GM Question coming, will edit to link.

[Zashi]

Zashi blinks. "I honestly did not see that coming." He sees Sasaiko prostrate herself . While he doesn't go that far, he does bow.

"If that is your request Doji-sama, I certainly think it would be an honor to assist." Zashi's mind turns and a mischievous smile comes across his face. "Are there any limits upon what we can do to help him?"

[Kokyou]

Kokyou looks to Mai, then back at the Emerald Champion. He bows, planting his head to the floor. "Hai. Doji-ue. It will be an honor."

[Vutall]

“I trust you to all maintain your honesty to uphold this request.”

Then as quickly as it all began, there was a bright flash of light and they all found themselves in Sasaiko’s room, the man gone and only a hot teapot full of fresh tea hot tea the only proof of the ordeal.

[Mai]

"That.... was weird. I'm all for helping Mantis to pass. But why would the Emerald Champion care? And how did he do that? He is not a shugenja?" Mai was a bit paranoid. And she for one made no promises. Mainly because her player forgot about the Thread. But still, it is what it is.

She'd help Hitoshi. At least, until she has reason not to.

[Toritaka Sasaiko]

"Unfinished business, most like, for a spirit. Or an illusion cast by a shugenja, perhaps," says Sasaiko, rising.

[Zashi]

"I really have no clue." Zashi shrugs a little. "But as a minor clan representative, I am all in favor of helping Hitoshi. The question really is how. I can try to ask the kami for help during events...

[Toritaka Sasaiko]

"Wouldn't the first step be finding said Hitoshi?"

[Kokyou]

"All make sure we all dine tomorrow so we can meet. Wha' ye say?" Kokyou invites them.

[Toritaka Sasaiko]

"Not the worst idea. Where, and when?"

[Kokyou]

"In th' morrow." He raises an eyebrow, "Red. Lotus?"

He chuckles a bit, repeating the Champion's words.

[Mai]

"That sounds good."
