"I suspect I will be safe enough here. You should enjoy the festivities too." she shook her head. "I'm sure you can find other things to do while we are here."

“I will try my best.” He said with a hint of disbelief in his own ability to do so apparent in his voice.

“There are many people here... many people devoted to the good in this world. It will be an opportunity to find allies. To engender friendships which can provide support in our... responsibilities...”

"Do you have any potential opportunities in mind?"

Post by **Kakita** » Mon Jun 07, 2021 5:09 am

He shook his head.

“Just general objectives... There is an illness among my old kin. How to find it and deal with it I do not know. But if there are people who could... it is possible that they are here.”

"Mmm... Do what you must, but keep me informed." She became a bit more focused as the conversation shifted to clan matters. "As a clan, I feel we need to find our place in the Empire. We have the resources to sustain ourselves, for now. But, we'll need more as we grow. We'll need something that we can provide to the others. Our iron and lumber won't be enough."

“What do you have in mind? Your will is the future of this clan.” He replied.

"I'm not sure." she admitted. "I don't know what our Empire needs. Not yet."

"Then your task is set for you. Figure out what all these people need." He said with a hint cavalier... not quite flippant... charm.

"What shall be your first step?"

"Well, I should check on Hen." she replied with a grin. "Hopefully he hasn't gotten into too much mischief. Then, I will explore a bit more and contemplate the possibilities. And, there's the wedding of course."

"If I can be of use..." He left the remainder of the offer hang as if already understood.

"I will be sure to call on you." she nodded. "Hopefully, I will not have need of your blade."

“My faculties are at your disposal... as insufficient they may be in areas beyond your protection.”

"For some of my more involved rituals, I may need you to watch over me." she advised. "Otherwise, just nudge me if you see me lapse into one of my oblivious trances."

Post by **Kakita** » Tue Jun 08, 2021 3:33 am

He nodded.

“What do you experience while in those trances?”

"It depends." she shrugged. "Sometimes, like this morning, I'm just lost in thought. My mind gets lost in a variety of ideas. Bridge designs, mine layouts, building fortifications, structural integrity, material potential and such. Other times, I'm listening to a spirit who has come seeking guidance. Occasionally, I'm just thinking of my father."

Post by **Kakita** » Tue Jun 08, 2021 3:52 am

“And does he come to you? Or do your thoughts merely linger on him?” He asked.

Post by **Ryoshun Rei** » Tue Jun 08, 2021 3:57 am

"He can't really come to me. Not here. But, I do feel him." she explained. "It's like I can remember him holding me."

Post by **Kakita** » Tue Jun 08, 2021 4:04 am

“That is a special gift Rei-sama.” He said with a smile.

“The memories of my father chip away each day with the winds of time...”

Post by **Ryoshun Rei** » Tue Jun 08, 2021 4:39 am

"We carry their legacies, Kakita-san." she smiled. "We keep their memory alive."

Post by **Kakita** » Tue Jun 08, 2021 12:38 pm

He nodded though it seemed the words she spoke stuck to him in an unusual way.

“The ties of fate... always pulling us towards that which has come before, and that which will follow us.”
