He didn't pay the netsuke much mind, of course.
Even if he was happy to see it in use.

So Raizo did, admittedly a bit curious.

Opening the flap revealed a token only slightly larger than a koku made of gold and inlayed with an ebony wood. One side depicted a Crane and Phoenix in tandem flight, the other side showed Kyuden Shika.
"A token of my appreciation and a way for you to remember me and our times here. You have mentored me this entire time even when I did things that would drive lesser men away. I hope you will accept it."
token for Raizo | TN: 3 | Success: 6 / Opportunity: 0 / Strife: 3
polishing and refining Raizo's token | TN: 2 | Success: 2 / Opportunity: 2 / Strife: 0

"Etiquette says I should refuse, to let you prove your sincerity."
Raizo picked the token up, turning it around to look at it.
When he spoke again, his voice was a bit thick.
"Friendship says your sincerity has never been in doubt, Soyokaze-san. It's beautiful, and I am honored to accept it. I only hope that my advice has done you some good."

"Every word of it, starting with you giving me the confidence to make Bai-chan more than just an acquaintance. I am glad you like it, really." he took another sip of tea and refilled their cups. "In two days you will be that happiest man I know, save hopefully for me and if I am it will all be thanks to you. That is of course if I can remedy a little problem I am having right now, yet one more thing I am hoping you can help me with." There was a hard look in his eyes as he spoke the last part.

"A thorn that thinks it's a rose, I spared it once but it continues plague me. Now it has stung the one I love and taken something from her." His eyes were daggers. "Teach me how to kill."

"As a friend, Soyokaze-san... you don't want to know that. Not really. The better you get at it, the less use you are for anything else. Besides."
Sip.
"Besides. You talk about about killing. That means there's no interest in a fair fight. Which means you're better off finding someone trustworthy to point at your target."
A pause.
"Does she know this is what you propose as your solution?"

"No. I honestly can't even remember what she said right now, I'm too pissed. I assume that she told me not to do anything, which is the only reason I haven't already done something. If you will not teach me I understand, I will ask Hikimasu. I should have dealt with this earlier, this time I will deal with it myself no matter how long it takes. I will duel him myself and teach him a lesson he will have to wait a cycle to learn from." he sipped at his tea. "He will regret this." His eyes welled with tears but his anger kept them from falling.
