Letter from the Badger to the Dragonfly

[Ichiro Kojuri]

To the most esteemed daimyo of the Dragonfly,

Fellow minor clansman. I write this letter hastily and beg your forgiveness for its neatness. I got news that the Dragon clan army now marches to your borders to intervene Kaneka's attempt to the throne. As you read this letter, the army of the Badger now marches to your border also and ask your permission to cross its ground.

For the Emperor!

For Rokugan!


Sincerely,

Ichiro Kojuri, Badger clan champion

Ichiro-sama,

I find that our Champion is currently unavailable. But ask, does your clan support the true, Hantei, Emperor or the Totori usuper?

If it is the former then I wish you luck as you travel through the Unicorn lands and will offer you hospitality, if not food as I apologise for my family being a little stretched at this time and even the water kami of my home are tired.

Regards,

Tonbo Kenzo

Dragonfly Courtier

Kenzo-san,

I appreciate your timely response in behalf of your champion. The Badger clan support the Emperor Hantei. We only wish free access to travel through your lands if we are fortunate to be given free access by the Unicorn. Please do not trouble yourselves in providing us with provisions, your permission is all that we require.

Thank you,

Ichiro Kojuri, Badger clan champion

[Tonbo Kenzo]

Ichiro-sama,

Please find included the necessary travel papers for yourself and all your "vassals loyal to the Hantei".

I wish you good fortune in your travels.

Regards,

Tonbo Kenzo, Magistrate
