(IRR) The Rokugan IR (Turn 1)

[Creamsteak]

Knight Otu... your shugenja assure you that they will be able to perform a full scrying with time, but that with the total dedication you have sent it will take them two full weeks to accomplish this.



(Refresh me, is Toshiro Akodo the Anvil?)

 

[Knight Otu]

Thanks!

(Toshiro Akodo is Serpenteyes' PC... has anyone seen him recently?)

 

[The Forsaken One]

And I think the Anvil is occupied

Scorpion clan will continue to work on cleaning every standing tree and village in monkey territory. We will attempt to root all those that are trying to attack our supply lines. If possible we will leave the Bayushi family with the full intent on keeping monkey in their castle until all of the food to support those troops has been eliminated.

 

[The Forsaken One]

Got the mails and replied.

Mantis lands are kinda peacefull at the moment

 

[Knight Otu]

(OOC: TFO, will you respond to the messages of the Phoenix regarding the Scorpion and the heirs? they are posted here in the IRR threads.)

 

[The Forsaken One]

A letter goes out to the Great lords of Rokugan:

"I wish to thank those of you who have offered assistance against the barbarian invaders, it is comforting to know that the Lion Clan has so many dedicated friends and allies. Though we are troubled by the suddenness and audacity of the attack there can be no question that we have proved to all those who would threaten the empire that we will stand united against all outside threats. If any of you should need my assistance against foreign invaders you will have it. We welcome your assistance in the investigations in Etsu province and Otusan Uchi.

Toshiro Akodo"
_____________
Vorador, after having heard the news that his troops attacked Etsu province, Teleports to Ken Hayai, disregarding the fact that most people in the Empire do not approve name magic.

He requests an audience with Toshiro Akodo
_____________

Upon hearing of the arrival of the lord of Miir Toshiro interrupts his investigations in the Etsu province and travels swfitly to Ken Hayai.

"Greetings, noble necromancer, I did not expect your precence here. Indeed, I did not expect the precence of your armies in my territory and yet, apparently, my expectations have been found flawed. Your actions are unfathomable and yet I assume you have a very good reason for them. Why have you violated the Empire? Why have you attacked the Empire? Why have you invited the vengeance of the Empire? You cannot believe you can defeat us. Explain yourself, the future of your city depends on it."

--
edit: The Phoenix Firestorm Legion and the other assisting armies are welcomed in the Etsu Province

 

[Knight Otu]

"Toshiro-san, with your consent, the Firestorm Legion will remain in the Etsu Province to aid in the investigations and, should the need to do so arise, to aid you against further attacks by the gaijin."


"It appears that the Mantis do not deem us worthy of their attention. They have not reacted to our request to send a delegation into their lands, nor have they said if they are willing to accept our judgement of the Scorpion clan. We cannot wait much longer to determine the truth in this matter."


Agasha Hamanari, along with his yojimbo, will attempt to meet Moshi Juiko.

 

[Janos Audron]

"Yes, Toshiro Akodo, I know that I am probably the last person you expected, but the matter I want to discuss was too delicate to just send a messenger."

"I am glad that you wanted to see me, after the attack of my troops on your country, instead of attacking me."

"The message I bring, Toshiro, is that my troops have not attacked you. This year, my troops have not left the Burning Sands, and have certainly not attacked any clan of the Empire."

"I do not know how I can prove that I have not attacked you, maybe you can use Divinations to tell if I am speaking the truth, maybe you will allow us to help you search for the true attackers. Remember that looks can be decieving..."
