A lone Monkey walked to the Moto estate. He was met by a young woman in Monkey Colors, but a Scorpion cut kimono. He spoke quietly to her for a while, then they parted. He had a grin across his face. Plans within plans, he trusted the right man. He still had to finish his final plan. He desperately hoped he would never have need of it, but he had to save his son no matter the cost. He walked to the guards and introduced himself as Toku Kenpachi, the father of the Monkey Clan Champion. He requested an audience with the Khan, stating that he had a letter from his Champion. The letter was wrapped in purple silk and smelled of sweet grass.
To the Mighty Khan,
I am Toku Hirotomo, the Monkey Clan Champion. Though I am far away, my samurai were proud to stand with you in defense of Mountain Watch Keep. Once again we find ourselves standing with you again, and I could not be happier. When the hooves of your mighty steeds charge, all of creation stands silent to listen. We stand with you, with the true Emperor Toturi III. Others may mock you for what they perceive as strange ways. You are strong because of your differences, not in spite of them. None will laugh when the charge of the Unicorn shakes the very earth. I am proud to call you ally. At the end of this war, I hope to increase our friendship, for I believe there is much to be learned from you. Victory for Toturi, victory for the Unicorn. The less wise clans will take notice, I am sure.

Upon reading the Monkey clan champion's letter, Yoee raised an eyebrow. What was the meaning of this. Aside from telling him something he already knew, there was nothing. A minor clan was not a sufficiently significant support to matter in the political struggle between the two children of Toturi, and this was clearly not a message written on behalf of the whole Minor Clan Alliance.
He sighed and took a sheet of rice paper, a brush and a bottle of ink.

Esteemed Toku Hirotomo-san,
Your support is highly appreciated. It is my belief that soon this usurper that goes by the name of Hantei will be ousted, and that the righteous Toturi III will take the place he deserves on the Emerald throne.
I also hope to increase the relationships between our two clans after this conflict. After all, I have always respected the humble Monkey, especially your founder, Toku, who has taught the whole Empire a lesson. A man is not defined by birth, but by his acts.
