The New Winds

Shara still has her pregame thread, although I need to make sure not to neglect Aiichiro and his trebuchet.

"I didn't, but everyone that passes gempukku has to test the engines somewhere. I agree that the Lion would not smile at that, but the Hida soldiers are both strong and trained to exterminate, so even without the engines they would suffer a lot of losses. But we don't really have the time to seek b...

"That makes a lot of sense. I almost feel dumb for not realizing it earlier. But they aren't quite legal, they are very legal. Around the wall everywhere. We build villagers only to destroy them in the testing too." "Oh that sounds like fun, I've never destroyed a village before. Although, I wonder...

"Noticing something that was caused like a man with a limp walked the room... I think it is a little too jumpy on logic, but if it works then it works." He replied. Crabs weren't famous for being philosophers. "The people on my city always told me that I should hope never to be visited by a magistr...

“I bet it’s the top half”

Gasp "How did you know?!?!"

"A lot of crab magistrates are not courtiers as far I know. I would say all of them I have seen together, which should be like 3 and they were all Kaiu. I think the Yasuki would be more interested in travelling around selling their things to other clans than walking around the Crab, too, as for wha...

"Every one of them is a magistrate? Are there a lot of crimes in the Dragon lands, or are most of them Emerald Magistrates, or are there few courtiers?" He asked. "Solving a crime without testimony ...How?" "Every magistrate is a courtier, and most of our courtiers are magistrates. It's much easier...

"Yeah. It's an entire family too much." He replies, looking forward to see the gate that let outside the city. "This way, Kitsuki-san. Talking about families, I don't know barely anything about the Dragon. What does yours do? Courtiers, since you have told about your parents being ones? Following t...

"I got to meet two on my way to here. They did a lot of handling with money. A lot." Aiichiro looked quite astonished for a moment. "Do you think... They may be not proper samurai? If that's the case I should tell Ginkarasu-san." “Yes.... but also no, Kaiu-san. If they’re not proper samurai that me...

"Isn't math more of a courtier thing?" He asked. The Yasuki were indeed good at math. "I only learn the necessary part of maths for what I do, but I couldn't do finances like a courtier. So there should be?" “I don’t know many courtiers, I should ask my parents how their math is. Maybe they’ve been...

"Mines I would not be sure, but there are a lot of them that can do better than that. But it also all depends on positioning. Seven times eight and a half..." He stopped to think. Forgetting what was seven times eight, it was a matter of taking seven times seven and adding ten and a half. "Fifty ni...

"I would built a trebuchet." He said. "I was in fact scheming one for my gempukku, because those things are better done in advance. This is common, and the drafts are stored on a room not to risk their safety or asking your parents for help, although asking others for help is encouraged, and the se...

He smiled a slight bit. "If she is to bring our true potential, I would be confused on how this would be done so far away from Crab lands, but must I say I am curious nonetheless." "Maybe she'll have you build something? Now that is an exciting thought, if you could build anything, what would it be...

"I don't know the Dragon well enough to do this... If I feel like one?" He knew logically he was not one. His projects were average. He had to intensively study the same average hours before each test. The amount of critiques and praise were average. "Guess I can say I have some innate talent, for ...

"I think we were picked for some reason. Maybe for being easygoing with other people? I don't see why they would pick me and Ginkarasu-san otherwise instead of a Hida prodigy. So the Scorpions could be good." "Oooooh, excellent idea Kaiu-san! I'm definitely not a prodigy, although I'm not sure what...

Aiichirō turned his head at you, pausing for a moment. "Perhaps?" He asked, with a curious tone. "Didn't think of this before." She smiles slightly "I mean, I'm sure some are evil. But they can't all be evil, since they're samurai, and not all samurai are evil. There's probably a good scorpion out ...

"It is the best approach to avoid danger." He replies. "Avoiding weird people. I'm not going to trust anyone ronin or Scorpion. The old lady and the children are not weird. The other lady is. It is also the context that makes the judgement valid. I wouldn't be looking around my sides if we were ins...

"Interesting approach, serves well when someone is bluffing. I believe we can walk around the perimeter until we see a gate? I don't think it is good to ask anyone here anything. Everyone looks like a criminal." Aiichiro did not have the best image of Scorpions. "That seems like a sensible plan. Bu...

"Isn't it about leaving as an action?" It seemed so obvious... Dragons were really like that. As the two saw the houses becoming more sparse and the city's wall showing up, Aiichiro blinked a few times. "Ah, forgot about this. We will have to see if there is a gate on this area." "Oh we don't take ...
