Arai met with more wrestlers

"So pious, aren't you?" Her tone isn't serious. More of a mock. "In either way, I don't care how you feel on the matter. This time I just wanted to tell you to stop. Who knows what I will tell you if there is a second time."

"With this specifically? Nothing. Just two separate yet fine examples that not everyone holds bushido as close to their hearts as expected of honorable samurai. They," she gestures back towards the temple where the bodies of the attackers lie, "dishonor their schooling and their sensei. She dishono...

The Lady of the Matsu looked down at Arai with an expression of naked confusion. "What has Matsu Reiko got to do with this? What are you talking about?" "With this specifically? Nothing. Just two separate yet fine examples that not everyone holds bushido as close to their hearts as expected of hono...

Arai bursts into laughter that persists for quite a few seconds. "My whereabouts, hai. I'm in the lands of her clan attending the most prestigious wintercourt. It must be hard for her to find me. Indeed paying is necessary." She pauses for a moment to refocus. "Isawa san, such pettiness could be avo...

And now everything is quiet. Arai has seen these techs before. "Disgusting." She whispers to herself. "How much have the honorable fallen." She turns her back to return to the Crane House. There are cleansing rites to be performed. On her way back, she makes sure to cross ways with the Matsu daimyo....

Doji Arai closes the last 20' of distance with the spear dude. She is ready to work him woe next round, should he still draw breath!

Doji Arai charges at the enemy! She is 20' from Spear Guy #2!

Full Attack with Sword Skulky Guy #1 2 raises for feint | 10k5 ⇒ 41 (TN: 30)
Damage | 5k2+5 ⇒ 32

Doji Arai bursts onto the scene with the swift fire of Kakita steel! Skulkmeister #1 cries out in anguish as the fury of the Crane is visited upon him by Lady Ishimoto!!

Arai keeps running while paying attention to her surroundings and noticing more enemies.

/20ft away
Defence stance
ATN 23

D10 Fight! Perception/investigation | 5k4 ⇒ 28 (TN: 24)

Arai runs towards the temple, sword in hand.

/water 2 so 40 ft max distance, I believe

Arai smiles politely and bows back. "Blessings of the fortunes, Isawa san. A pleasure to meet a servant of kami." A small shrug. "And of Matsu Reiko." Her polite smile is still there and her tone is almost playful. "How does the ever dishonorable and despicable Terror of Shiro Hana fare? Do I, at le...

Doji Arai just returned from court to change to a less formal atttire, before heading to the Phoenix House and ask a servant to notify Isawa Nakajiro that would like a brief meeting with him. She waits for the man while idly looking towards the courtyard, her mind trailing off to the various turns t...

Arai keeps trying to work on the wrestlers.

Once again Arai wakes up in the middle of the night due to a strange sound. Once again she grabs her katana and heads towards the source of the disturbance still dressed in the hakama and gi she is sleeping in. / D10, LN investigation/Perception | 5k3 ⇒ 25 (TN: 10) D10, LN initiative | 5k3+10 ⇒ 34 I...

Arai just participates for the fun of it. She's not much of a drinker. Or of a poet. But she can handle a single cup and a few lyrics. When it's time, she drinks up and recites: "Rain falls, light as breath, spilling whispers to the breeze. Streams laugh through the woods." And that's as far as she ...

Arai offers all the appropriate bows to the judge and her opponent. The attempted powerplay at court the other day has her really frustrated. Not enough to forget her manners, she's a Crane of course. Still enough to make her focus on the game inadequate.

/D10, EE, go/intelligence, Vp | 7k5 ⇒ 28

Arai will participate, as well

Arai raises to speak again and smiles politely. "I am glad that it is clearly between two equally noble candidates and very good arguments have been put forth. There are two points I need to emphasize though. Ancestry is important. It is about the proximity to the divine. And age is also a factor. L...

In the debate for lord Baisho's heir, can I support my own words with a second roll/statement?
