Forgive me, that was me not having the terms correct. Thank you for your quick correction.
The terms are confusing, I had to look them up and double check them too. Thanks for your patience! Tatsuya being a closer relation to the Empress (along with her intentionally plucking him out of obscurity) is most of my argument, LOL.

Lord Baisho doesn't represent "the Hantei," he represents Hantei Retsuhime personally. Tatsuya is her second cousin--the son of her great-uncle.
This should make Tatsuya a first cousin, once removed - a closer relationship than second cousin.

I actually believe GM-sama was right the first time? Tatsuya is a second cousin of Retsuhime, like Tomaru. Muhaki was Retsuhime's grandfather's brother, not her mother's brother.

edit! whoop, this chart's understanding of first/second cousin is different from mine. Okay, so Tatsuya is first cousin -1. Noriko is first cousin proper.

Still, the main difference between Tatsuya and Tomaru is that the former's parent was also emperor while the latter's wasn't (and they might be of different generations). But their relation to the late Empress R-hime is pretty comparable.

If we throw in in Asian concepts of generational succession, Tats is from the generation above Rets and shouldn't be eligible as her heir, but I don't think Rokugan does that.

Rokugan can be pretty dang Euro-American when it wants to be, can't it?

Hoping to catch Tatsuya in the Court Galleries and Kasuga Izumi in the Old Man's Stump, if they're available. Sorry to be such an NPC piggy!
