*Near the entrance of Kyuden Gotei stands a fairly large, but simple, thoroughly unimpressive building, that looks like it might have been a training ground for a martial arts school, a hotel for passing sailor crews or a warehouse to store the spoils of trade. Whatever it was, it is now a run-down tavern in the process of being redecorated and rendered functional. The green and gold cloths hanging from the walls are obviously unchanged from the last ownership that may have been decades ago. The only "new" parts are two small altars to Amaterasu, one east to celebrate her rising, one west to celebrate her setting, and a sign flung near the gate that reads "The Mantis' Den"*
*As you enter, a mild-mannered shugenja with a centipede tatoo on the left side of his neck wipes the sweat from his forehead and welcomes you*
Perhaps better than the other Clans, we at the Mantis know the value of sharing.
Let us not heed each other's reputations for a moment, enjoy a cup of sake, relax with the familiar sound of the surf and use this space for open discussions among us.
Of course, if you enjoy yourself here or would like to make the place more enjoyable, feel free to give me a hand at giving the Den a face the Mantis would not be ashamed of.
