Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lichtenhart" data-source="post: 573892" data-attributes="member: 761">Utaku Xieng-Chi enters the battlefield and bows in front of her opponent."I salute you, Kakita-san, I am indeed honored to be considered worthy of challenging a member of the noblest academy of duelists in Rokugan. I'm sure Unicorn and Crane will never raise swords against each other in any other way. If the kami will assign the victory to you, I know you'll serve as a skillful and wise Emerald Champion like many of your ancestors did."Then her eyes goes to the banner of the Shiotome, the Battlemaidens and she prays her ancestors.Otaku-sama, Avatar of Mercy, you whose fealty to Lady Shinjo never needed words, and Kamoko-sama, Paragon of honor and virtue, sisters all who rode with the Battlemaidens, I pray to you.Grant me the strenght to face this worthy opponent and claim for the Unicorn the glory of the Emerald Armor. Fill me with the wind of the Days of Thunder and with the roar of a thousand charges, so that I might prevail, or, if I must lose, that I might lose with dignity.Xieng-chi close her eyes and feels the wind across the field with her hair, with her finger, with her skin, with her breath. She tries to become one with the wind, that cannot be severed by iron. She knows she isn't young anymore, and that her opponent will be quicker so she prepares to find the lightness to dance along his strike as the wind will, and touch with a nimble movement of the arm the Crane mon on Kaiten's back.OOC: I'm very very sorry for the delay, after I insisted to participate. I deserve a penalty for it. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":o" title="Eek!    :o"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":o" /></blockquote>
