I'm not sure about this action Takezo, we dragons have a course of action so we know... but i was wondering about the effect of the job and more so why it give honor??? I have no intention of advising Kaneka to submit either!

...It's kind of the definition of the honor to submit to the will of the Emperor, particularly when it could mean your own death.

You're assuming, of course, that it really is the will of the Emperor. I don't believe that it is. All we know for sure is that *someone* sent assassins after the Shogun. His spies indicate that someone has connections to the Imperial Court, but make no mention of the Emperor himself. Besides, the idea that the Emperor would even consider resorting to something as base and cowardly as assassins is absurd, bordering on blasphemous. If he wants Kaneka's life, all he has to do is ask. He's the Emperor.
EDIT: Sorry, I misunderstood the point of your post. Yes, if one believed that the Emperor wished him/her dead, then submitting to that would in fact be honorable. In this case, though, it would also be a huge mistake.

Akodo Kenzo-san, you should totally check out the summit in Kyuden Gotei; my aim is to discuss the status of the Shogun.

That's okay, with enough slander you can get more by executing prisoners.
