Posted: Sun Aug 16, 2020 7:37 pm
Shortly after the Topaz Championship, Agasha Sumiko, the Ruby Champion and acting Emerald Champion launches a secret investigation at the Palace of the Emerald Champion to uncover the truth to Doji Satsume's death.
One of the Emerald Magistrates at the Castle reports that Doji Hotaru was the cause of her fathers murder. Little did Agasha Sumoko know however, that the Magistrate was actually Shosuro Hamestu, The Shosuro Diaimyo and the brother of the Imperial Asvisory, Bayushi Kachiko, who has grown jealous of Hotaru and Kachiko's affair. Another magistrate, Hiruma Shigeki, believes that the Shadowlands was the cause of Satsume's death, with an attack only recently happening near the Castle of the Emerald CHampion by a group of goblins lead by an ogre. A few days later, the Ruby Champion meets with a disguised Doji Hotaru, who informs her that the Scorpion could not possibly have had anything to due with her fathers death, and tat the official report she has made is that he died of natural causes. Still suspicious however, Sumiko continues her investigation. Eventually, she finds a hidden room in Satsume's quarters, and inside it there are multiple letters addressed to someone who only identifies themselves as the Hidden Serpent. Thus, Sumiko uncovers the Kolat plot. The Kolat, who believe that the Empire should be free from the rule of the Kami had been communicating with Satsume for some time. It appears that Satsume was convinced that neither of the Emperor's heirs were worthy of the throne would be terrible, but once he learned more of the Kolat plans, he broke ties with the organization.
Shortly after discovering the damning information, Sumiko was attacked by an assassin, Kitsuki Tomo,and while she defeated him, she was unable to garner any new information from him other than that he had poisoned and killed Satsume after orders came down from a Kolat superior in Otosan Uichi.
That night, Sumiko was visited by the ghost of Satsume who requested that she "Ensures that the matter of my death is resolved in a way that brings no shame upon or retribution against my family,”
Torn between honoring the wishes of Satsume and giving a truthful report, what does Agasha Sumiko do?
-Report Satsume's death was indeed of Natural Causes
-Report that he was assassinated by an unknown actor
-Report that he was assassinated by an organization known as the Kolat.
