And we have precious little information about what seeds were planted in that fertile ground by the previous House. Thats why we need you to go there. I don't want to say to much, for my speculation might turn your eyes away from what otherwise you would see, or make you see things where there is nothing." Nagahama pauses for a moment, lost in thought, as if weighing you against the task at hand. "A map would be useful. As would be coats of the Lord Ari. We have enough, I think," he says, addressing this to his Guard Captain. "And we need to prepare a letter of authority and the letters to the Chief of each village. You will see to that, Sugimoto." "You see," he says to you after Sugimoto's curt nod of acknowledgement, "there is a lot to be done and little time to do it. For I am going to require this of you. You have to leave by daybreak tomorrow. I realise that your horses are tired, as you are. But it is necessary. Once out of Karatsu, you may take your time and walk the horses.
