Bayushi titled his head, staring at Shosuro. Then he glanced at Shiba. "A little relaxation looks good on you, my friends. You're settling in to your time here. And if you want an ikebana-by-way-of-horse event, well, I can see what I can arrange..."

"Been hanging around these two much, Suzume-san?" Bayushi wondered, turning to the third man after taking a seat. "I'm afraid I missed that drinking over honor that you mentioned - I'm very curious! But I do have some news about that mysterious changing painting," he informed, looking at each of them in turn. "It was a fake! A mundane switch, no disturbed spirits involved. The parties involved have been identified, and everything will soon be rectified. All thanks to a little careful investigation." Bayushi straightened his clothes to a particular standard.

"I'd guessed as much" Hikimasu replied. "I'm pleased you got to the bottom of it. Just a prank or some test from the Shika?"

Some painting changed?

Raizo wasn't big on rumors, hadn't been back to the great hall in a few days, and had therefore completely missed the flap over the painting.

"Someone moved a painting or something?"

And people cared?

He looked at Raizo for a moment and sipped his tea.

"There are paintings in the castle, of a Scorpion woman, and they suggest she has killed many lovers", he explained. "One of the paintings had changed, the woman was gone, only the background of the painting remained...and people spoke of having seen a particular scorpion woman who resembled the one in the painting about town."

he put the cup down.

"Now do you understand why people cared?"

The Phoenix blinked.

"Some painting goes screwy and everyone's first thought is a haunting of some kind?"

"Some did, others not as much", he shrugged.

"One can't be too careful about supernatural matters," Bayushi advised sagely, placing a hand above his heart.

"Wouldn't that include making sure they are supernatural first?"

Memories of aggravated Isawa whose time had been wasted arose unbidden.

Bayushi nodded. "Yes, of course." He held up his fingers in succession. "If it appears supernatural, take caution. Reach out carefully with your senses - consult an honorable shugenja if you can. If it is determined safe at the moment, then approach and investigate. In this case, you see," he went on, gesturing with punctuation, "as soon as I saw that the 'changed' painting was a fake, the supernatural could be ruled out. Forgery is a quite human endeavor."

"Anyway", Hikimasu scooted his plate away. "I'm assuming we're all ready for what comes today?"
