“Nani?” The Seppun tilts his head, not really understanding. “A kiho is a monk technique. I thought Shiba-san was a yojimbo.”

"I'm not much of a yojimbo so far, either."

He sat back down on the surface of the pond. Fixed the Seppun with his gaze.

"But then, the actual world is so much messier than the neat little labels we try to put on things."

The Kitsu shrugged in return.

"Who better to be beyond description than the Phoenix themselves? It's as Shiba-san says; very few things are contained entirely within their label."

The Seppun nods to the wisdom, and looks at the Shiba's feet again. "Interesting thing. I really wasn't aware one could do that. I mean, I've heard tales, but seeing the actual thing is quite amazing. I also thought only shugenja could make the kami obey to their commands."

"Well, there's a reason the Great Clans are called Great, Seppun-sama - it's because there is something that they can do at a much greater level of understanding than the others."

"Take for instance, the Lion..."

He tried to push forward his agenda, but found himself leaning too much into exalting the great clans instead.

"Oh, there's no commanding going on here, Seppun-sama. That's another... misconception."

What the fuck did they teach this twit? He knows nothing about people, nothing about magic, and he doesn't seem to be any better at fighting than the rest of the field...

“Interesting indeed. The myriad of skills the Clans have to serve our wise Emperor is indeed to be marveled at. I am growing ever more curious into learning what all the many Minor Clans have to offer in the same level as the Great Clans.” He says, looking to the Lion, and then the grumpy Shiba.

Suggestinf the Great Clans are just another piece of the Imperial puzzle, and favoring Minor Clans in the process while maintaining the cools. Blessed lineage. | TN: 2 | Success: 3 / Opportunity: 0 / Strife: 3

The Kitsu nodded.

"Keep an eye on the Otter clan, if I may - I hear they have rediscovered an old form of poetry which may take the courts by storm."

No wonder you've done almost as many pratfalls at this event as I have.

“And yet, they do t get all that attention as the Great Clans get.” He mentions, tapping his chin.
