Kakita, stop barking and wait for your Champion to speak. I don't care what you do. It's not something uncommon to see you on the other side of barricade.
okay, it is. To see you on the field at all.

Oh yes, Akodo-san, forgive me, but that sad situation is certainly due to fact that I was in the avant garde while you were kept in reserve. The grounds of death are certainly not the place for you.

And the Kakita returns, fishing for a duel no doubt. Tell me Kakita, what gives you the right to speak for your champion? He has yet to render his own judgements, how amusing it would be if Doji Yoshi were to support Toturi? However I guess you have to hope that he does, it could be very bad for you otherwise. At this point you would be lucky if you weren't forced to commit sepukku yourself for challenging the judgements and assuming the mandates of men far above you in the celestial order. I will not ask for it however, as you clearly have much to learn in life. It is unfortunate that this war is necessary, many like you who are fresh from your gempukku will not survive to see the end of this civil conflict. Should your survive it, it will be because you were able to survive the tasks laid out for you by your lord. It will be by the grace of your emperor that you survive. It will be by the grace of the Kami that you find glory. Not you. That is why there is a celestial order, and why you are low on it. You will learn the lesson that only war teaches us about loyalty and duty. Or you will die. This is why I do not ask for your death now. Death will find you, or your lord will grant you the opportunity for glory in the coming fight. That lesson will show you the folly of your youth, and you will be far more useful to this empire as a result.
I hope all will agree that regardless of what side one serves in the coming conflict, it is the youth of our empire that will suffer the most. Many will be given impossible tasks, and many more will die a meaningless death. But they do so because their lord will command it. I have already given orders to my worthiest men, many have tasks so daunting as to question my sanity, though they don't they step forward trusting that I have purpose. While you stand here giving judgement over daimyos with your infinite experience.
Perhaps some of the youth should die after all, they clearly learned little to nothing of their place in the world in their dojos if this Kakita is any indication.

Dying in service of Emperor is highest honour a samurai can have, and I'll be glad to do so should my life be needed. I did not speak for my Champion, do not spread lies here scorpion, I spoke what my heart demanded, for I couldn't stand such treacherous discourse.

And what will you do if your lord says that Toturi's claim is right and that Toturi III is your emperor?

If it wasn't your words I would consider them insulting but I understand that talking is one of not many things you learnt. Eccept of paper-cranes and arranging flowers. It is not place for this type of conversation. If you want to continue this personal matter let's meet and *talk* some place private. You will see then who was kept in reserve. Or hide and wait in the shadow of your lord. That's more suitable for you.

that's a very clear answer, as expected from Crane

that's a very clear answer, as expected from Crane I am glad that your expectactions are met. I am dissapointed that your clan, that was a paragon of honour for ages, is turning from the way of samurai towards way of treachery however. I suggest you to take noble example of your anscestors into consideration and think what actions they expected of you in the matter.

Don't you dare to insult my clan and my lords. And don't speak about things you don't understand, such as honor. My ancestors are with me all the time. Where are yours?

Akawa, Alesha, I suggest you save your anger for the battlefield, your lords have not yet commanded the deaths of any man. And you would be out stepping your bounds if you were to waste your lord's resources before battle is even called for.

Be that as it may Kakita-san, no clan is exempt from fault. Not even the crane, and speaking before action is merely boasts before the battle.
You will need to prove your loyalty in steel in due time to see if you're worthy of this bravado. Swing your blades and then come to me about who is right and who is wrong.
