With everyone leaving Chief Magistrate Yama-Uno's house, Rai leans up against a wall to wait for the Second Magistrate Juro Saito to take his leave.
A few minutes later, Juro exits and notices Rai waiting for him.
"Something I can help you with Rai-san?"
-
Rai nods and says, "Yes there is something the ancestors said that I would like to talk to you about. In a more private venue of course."
-
"Of course," Juro says, taking Rai to his home and then offering him some tea.
Once formalities are settled, Juro simply asks, "What is troubling you Rai?"
-
Rai laughs and says, "Lots of things are troubling me but the ancestors told me that you would believe what I am about to tell you."
-
"That's an unorthodox way to begin a conversation," Juro Saito replies - "but OK, you have my full attention. What is it the Ancestors want me to know?"
-
"Well first I want to tell you that one (evil spirti name here) identified and confirmed by the Ancestors. It is the Daymio." Rai pauses here.
-
"You mean the Mission of the Ancestors that you told the Chief Magistrate about?" Juro Saito gasps.
"The Dai... Er... He's one of them?" he whispers in disbelief.
-
Rai solemnly nods and says, "It was a shock when the ancestors told us as well. They told us that we could tell you that and one other secret."
-
"There's more?!?" Juro gulps - not sure he even wants to hear it...
-
Rai nods and responds, "Yes there is but I think I should give you time to process this first bit of information." Bowing Rai continues with, "I will speak to you again soon."
-
"Rai," Juro says with concern, "You really should keep that information close to the chest. There are more that would turn you into the Daimyo for saying such things than wouldn't."
-
Rai stops and nods and says, "Of course.The only reason I told you this much is because the Ancestors said you were trustworthy."
Rai then quickly Jogs to the Ancestors Temple where he seeks the Exalted Patriarch.
-
Arriving at the Temple of the Ancestors, Rai sees that an outdoor triage unit has been set up outside, where many of Sendai’s wounded lay recovering on narrow stretchers. There are many horrifying burns, smashed limbs, and what Rai can only guess are huge bite marks – leaving grisly chunks of missing flesh on more than a few unfortunate victims.
Looking around, Rai sees the Priests and Monks of Sendai tending to the wounded.
Noticeably missing – the bones of fallen heroes and Exalted Patriarch Yasuo Sanjo...
-
(Rai already knows what happened to the bones and the old EP thanks to Yuki)
Rai asks one of the nearby pirists, "Can you Direct me to Exalted Patriarch Onishi?"
-
"Another visitor?" the man replies with a bow - "of course, right this way."
Rai is lead to the Temple's Grand Chapel, where he see the former High-Priest of the Temple of Five Gods - now apparently the new Exalted Patriarch of Sendai's Temple of the Ancestors...
-
Rai bows to the new exalted patriarch and says, "I know Yuki has probably already spoken to you but I would like to know if she told you who I am and about the Daimyo."
-
"Yes she has, Rai-san," The Exalted Patriarch replies. "And rest assured; we Priests will do our part in all of this. You just be sure that you are still around at the end of it all, to assume the Throne."
-
Rai smiles and says, "That is the goal but there is no greater honor than protecting Nippion.
-
"Yes," the Exalted Partiarch agrees simply.
-
Rai says, "I will be looking forward to the information your priests pass on." Rai than leaves to go to Yuki's house.
(OOC: Assume he told his ninja assassins to kill the Daiymo since Killa and everyone is getting impatient.
