Post by Yasuke Shisou on Jun 11, 2019 4:30:07 GMT -8
The war was over and things had started to settle, but the war had also caused a few wounds and Kojuro was one of those to receive such. His uncle Genji had died and the news had reached him on the day of victory making it bittersweet indeed - somehow this feeling of 'bittersweet' was something Yasuke could relate to very well. All his own 'victories' had been bittersweet as they had been based on lie and deceit and the way Kojuro had treated him and they had bonded lately, it was hard not feeling that strain in the chest seeing him like this.
However while they had celebrated the victory Yasuke had heard a Quying noble tell him about this guy who had a grand steading out in the countryside where he had - in his drunken state Yasuke believed his words were 'A freakin' million floofs' - that he considered making a business out of. And Yasuke considered supporting that business hoping that the daimyo of Quying would support him in doing that. If there was anything he thought Kojuro could use now, it was a new companion - one to follow him everywhere, wag his tail when he felt down and soak his cheeks with dog saliva if the tail wagging failed to cheer him up.
It was not hard to convince Kojuro that he might have deserved a little bit of vacation after the war ended and telling him a small lie that he had heard rumors that his sister might live in Quying and wanted to go check it out, and everything was settled quickly. Lying like this felt better knowing that he might surprise a friend with something great.
Approaching Yamato Castle on his travel packed horse he realized that this was a place he had never been before and apart from drinking with a few Quying soldiers he knew little of their culture.
"Well met honored Quying soldiers..!" Yasuke greeted them politely. "I am Yasuke Shisou, personal guard of Lord Hizashi Kojuro of Kiyonai. I request entry into Quying, it is a voyage of personal trade not of official business." he explained himself trying his utmost to relay the information they needed beforehand. It had become a habit of his as he still resented being questioned by authorities.

The guards at the gate were busy, with the war over and peace restored, people seeking to enter Quying had increased tenfold. Even still, a man of Yasuke's standing could not be ignored, and a trio of guards bowed low as they saw him.
"Emissaries of Lord Hizashi are always welcome in Quying, regardless of their business. We welcome you to our province, and would be more than happy to provide any assistance you may require."

"Huh..? I mean, yes of course. I AM an emissary of Lord Hizashi!" Yasuke put his chest forwards trying to wear his most sincere samurai expression. After this long it was still new to him that he was to expect being respected and didn't have to fight his way inside respectable places.
"I seek someone who owns - and this is what I've heard - 'a million floofs'." Yasuke said keeping a straight face. "He was probably talking about dogs." Yasuke added rather unconvinced that the term 'a million floofs' would be understood by those guys.

Ah, Yamato.
It had been a long time.
The castle walls flooded Xyrix with memories. Before he became visible he pulled his hat over his head. It was unlikely the checkpoint would recognize him, but he was nowhere foolish enough to risk it. The ronin trudged towards the castle somberly. It did not bring him much joy to return to Quying. However, work was abundant even if it was menial, and he needed coin.
As he arrived beneath the castle he decided hesitation was against his best interests.
"Hello! I come in search of work, and offer the city my hand in whatever it needs. May I pass?"
His voice boomed, but his tone was kind. Trouble was far from what he needed right now.

"Of course" Shouted the guards back, those who were willing to work were always welcome in Quying.
"Where do you seek work? We know many down in the city looking for a willing hand."

Xyrix smiled up at the guards and tipped his hat a bit upward in a friendly gesture.
"I have a fair hand in many areas of the culinary arts. Any manual labor as well I am fit enough to be a part of. If you just wouldn't mind directing me where may need assistance!"
He had a few ideas on where he wanted to head. It had been a great deal of time since he'd been near Quying so it was possible things had changed. Plus he would have to look quietly in case someone needed a sword. Foes were somewhat abundant for the young man nowadays.

(For Yasuke)
The guards noted the slight increase in his stature, but said nothing.
"Check the merchant lists, I believe a new addition had dogs yeah?"
"I think so...let me check, yeah, here he is, Taiyang."
The guard leaned back over the parapet and shouted down to Yasuke.
"Merchant Taiyang is who you are looking for milord, the lists do not have his exact location yet, he is a recent appointee to the Merchant Council."
(For Xyrix)
"My favorite sake house, Harumi's Blue Lily, is looking for a cook I believe. It's located fairly near to the palace, but the owner is a good man. He'll likely hire you if you can prove your skill. If not, the docks are always looking for strong backs."

"Oh... perfect then..!" Yasuke gave a fake smile and waved to the guards before a few muffled curses crossed his lips as he got out of view and hearing distance of the guards.
"No exact location yet, my ass... they just want those puppers for themselves. Damn you Akagi..." his words quickly spoken and quickly gone, as now he had to search for this guy in... all of Quying! However if it was truly Akagi's intention to keep them all to himself, as Yasuke had quickly deducted, he would keep that Taiyang guy close to the City of Quying no doubt. However if he truly had a million dogs, he would have his shop in the countryside.
"A million might be a little to the far side..." Yasuke rubbed his chin and curled the wrinkles on his forehead trying to solve the riddle. "I guess there are more people to ask inside the city than outside anyway - off to the city of Quying I guess..." his resolve unbroken still!

Xyrix offered a short wave and a smile. "Thank you kindly for the information! I'll be sure to visit both areas." With that Xyrix walked onward to Quying, thankful the guard had made this such an easy route for him. After all these years, the ronin finally came to see what had become of his birthplace.

The figure that approached was clothed in well worn linens, and wore a scarf over its head. A smooth staff lay in one hand, and a thin pack over one shoulder.
She was an idiot to come back here she told herself, along with the purring voice at the back of her mind, but after traveling for so many months, she couldn't shake wanting to be home.
Really home.
Hoping that she'd be taken for the blind beggar woman she looked like, purposefully unwashed for days so she looked muddied and dirtied and taken for older than she was, she made for the castle in an attempt to be simply allowed through.
There were no weapons visible on her bent frame, and her eyes were as clouded as they always were, truly blind.

The guards paid Masami no mind as she strode through the gates, deeming a blind beggar not worth their time. One figure, though, was on the lookout for a blind woman, and was not fooled by her disguise.
Shirai walked up next to her and whispered.
"So nice of you to return, Cat. And rather bold, given your failure."

She had made it through and smiled to herself -- when her shoulders stiffened and her smile froze. Masami had to stop herself from rolling her blind eyes, but her senses allowed her to turn and look in his direction.
"Am I to be arrested?" she asked, and perhaps a bit more saucily than she'd intended. She doubted she'd be arrested, for she'd been released to commit treason -- a subturfuge on the Daimyo's part.

That it was treason was moot, following the declaration of Quy independence and subsequent invasion of the capital city. A new power had risen, and all past crimes against the previously corrupt and greedy Shogun were gone with the wind.
"Not yet, but neither will you be allowed free reign until we are certain you intend to lead a crime-free life. Your pardon, after all, was granted on the condition of success of your mission. Given that we had to go in and remove him by force, I would say you failed. Fortunately, the Daimyo is more lenient than I am, and may have use for you." He said, a tad bitterly.

"Yes, you've said that word twice now," Masami said, again with more attitude than she'd intended. She bit her tongue and looked away, her profile obscured by the beggar woman disguise she wore. Perhaps it was the influence of the Cat, or perhaps it was the tatters and chaos that her life had become, forcing the once gentle young woman to be far more hard, but she found herself wanting to hit the arrogant witch-hunter.
She also found that she'd rather die than admit that the young woman had balked as she'd stood over the shogun's sleeping form. Assassination? Murder? She'd never done either before, and although many in Quying assumed she must be, Masami had been, for the most part, innocent.
She'd skunk away into the night and had blended in everywhere else. Her mistake had been in coming home.
The beggar woman turned to leave Yamato castle for the other provinces. " I'll be on my way then. I'm sure you'll not want to be my keeper anymore than I would want you to be."

Shirai moved and blocked her exit.
"On the contrary, if you would like to stay here, I could make a case for you being allowed back to your family, in exchange for your...assistance." he said through gritted teeth.
While magic was now allowed, witches were still outlawed, and it was still his task to deal with them.

She paused, but didn't lift her dirty, dust-smeared face toward him. "Have you found my father's murderer?" She was almost afraid to ask how the rest of her family faired. Her brother, she knew, the Witch Slayer would know where he was instantly -- he was one of the Daimyo's famous guards, taken away from the Ryoichi family as heir. Masami wasn't ready to face him of all people, but was curious about what happened to her sisters...

Shirai debated keeping the information from her for a split second, but that would be cruel and dishonorable.
"Yes...well, not me personally. Kaito did. He refused to be captured and was slain in the ensuing fight." Shirai stated. At least, that's what the official story said. Shirai had his doubts that Kaito ever intended to arrive home with the man who slew his father, and suspected the Daimyo knew as much. This way Kaito was allowed to avenge his father's death, even if it was...murky.

A sliver of jealousy ran through Masami's heart. She had wanted to kill her father's murderer, for after all, she had been the one the man had tried to frame. Instead, she only nodded and kept her face turned away. Hearing Kaito's name hurt, too.
But, she still had a spine. Perhaps it was the Cat's influence, but she quietly cleared her throat and spoke to Shirai. "So do you intend to keep me standing here all day, or may I go into the province? Unless you're expecting some sort of... promise from me. I'm very good at saying the words." A taunt, to a man she probably shouldn't be taunting.
However, Masami would be lying if she said she didn't derive some pleasure from getting under his skin, and she would be definitely lying if she said she wasn't intending on paying Shirai back in full for having arrested her and thrown her identity to the Daimyo, and to her family. In a way, it was his fault that her life turned out this way.

Shirai felt very little remorse over what had happened to her. Ultimately, what punishment she had received was far below what was delivered for the crimes she had committed, and suffered nothing for the ones she had been accused of but hadn't committed.
"I wasn't aware you had business of such urgency in the province. Just don't be too hard to find." He said, turning and walking away.

The Cat would have answered him back with some other flippant retort, but Masami prioritized getting away from him far higher than having the last word. She took off at a brisk pace as well, making sure to keep her footing evening and nimble. She knew, definitely, that the amount of time she wore the mask was wearing into her bones and connecting her even more tightly to the jade thing. It's personality was becoming her own, or... or rather, the mask was allowing her to become more free than she'd ever been under the thumb of her father.
She felt guilty for the thought, even if she knew it was true. Her blindness had meant that she was supposed to be even more docile, even more demure. No one had wanted to marry a blind girl, and she'd ruined any chances of getting her sister married to someone of influence because of the secret she bore... and, not to mention, that Yuudai Ryoichi was dead. The head had effectively been cut off from the snake, and Masami was sure her mother and single sister were living on the good graces of her older sister's husband.
But, she'd never know until she'd arrived, so off she went, without a glance back at Shirai.
