Dark Nemesis

Kaji
Quietly, Kaiten-sama collects himself. He tucks the wakizashi into his belt and finishes his tea, before moving closer to the door. “Well then, Kaji-san. I believe it is time.”
With that said, they set off. The hour had grown late while they were in their meeting, and the streets were considerably less crowded than when they had first arrived at the tea house. Those that are on the street do not approach the pair as they make their way, content to simply glare at them from the shadows.
Itarabi
The Crane and Unicorn are suitably impressed with the evidence of Itarabi’s hard fought battle, and praise both his skill, and Mitsumi’s. They make their way back indoors, through the winding halls of the palace. At last, they reach the main hall, where a small crowd had already gathered. Seiyo was present, apparently organizing the event, and inclined his head to Mitsumi and Itarabi when he saw them.
Cho and Zhiko
Though Cho speaks with as much deference as he could, he had still interrupted the conversation of those who were of higher station than he. For a moment, he could almost feel Bayushi-sama’s gaze upon him, but it was difficult to say if the gaze held curiousity or disapproval. Yogo-san also gives him a look, one of annoyance. An uncomfortable silence ensued for a moment, before Yogo-san finally spoke up.
“Cho-san’s eyes are indeed sharp. I… had placed a spell of protection upon the statue, when Zhiko-san indicated that was what the creature was after.”
Ai
Iuchi-san blushed at Ai’s questions. “You give me too much honor, Kakita-san. It is true that I study the Ugoki travel magic, but I am not yet a master.” Ai’s sincerity is noted by both of the Unicorn, and it is clear by their demeanor that they appreciate it. Amiko, however, gives her disapproving looks when the two Unicorn maidens are not looking.
