The only thing I'd like to know is if the lady Kyo knows about my grandfather's search. And I would ask him about that before I approached her.

Otherwise I have no mission or grudge to pursue, and my activities can be summarized with an etiquette roll.

So I noticed that Gensai's family name was mentioned in a post after his performance. I thought I would offer some friendly clarification by saying that unless the family name drop was intentional on account of perhaps identifying his School style, Gensai has never revealed his Clan/Family affiliation. This is due to the fact that the Musha Shugyō that he's currently treading the path of explicitly states that carrying any form of identification that would tie him to his Clan or revealing his origins to anyone during this journey is forbidden, otherwise it betrays the spirit of the tradition and the Pilgrimage would be broken as a result.

With that in mind, if the family name drop was deliberate, then Gensai will deny if not outright ignore any such remark or claim. If not then I would suggest revising it to Gensai-san or Rōnin-san instead. Thank you.

OK. I will revise to Ronin-san.

So, I figured we can only enjoy RP in dinner for so long....

I'm interested in getting to a bit more dynamic stuff.

Is the wave surging and pushing us inland, or is it receding and pulling us out to sea?

Inland... for now.

@Vardaen, could you repost the list of the major NPCs (the folks we met at the banquet) somewhere easy to find in the OOC? I find I don't remember who Doji Aiko is and can't locate the information on them in the thread easily.

Oh her. I was planning on killing and eating her, so I had just mentally begun referring to her as "food." That's where the confusion was. :shock: :D

More seriously, I had been assuming she was one of the local bigwigs we met at the dinner party.

Correct, she was there as well. She's an old friend of Yasuki Yoshito, the grandfather of a certain other PC. ;)
