Reckless Banzai Screamer

"I feel like someone is trying to false flag, because there's no one in Ravenswood," commented Shugo Kato after he received the notice from the Rah'tuman citizen. He contemplates the actions and reasoning of the child assaulter believing there was something deeper to the whole affair.

VICTORY ON THE WESTERN FRONT The Second Battle of Wall Masako Issued from the Flower Capital of Sakura-Gakure Year of the Kaerumon (Frog-man / Wonk), 176 SA (1153 Kamijikan) “The Untouchable, twisted and uncaring, perpetuates Kani that is overwhelmingly dim. Dead already, He is an embodiment of Sin - He is as the Void. Banishment can be the only recourse, lest the World break its tune.” HYPER-WAR 聖戦 .82 of THE KANINOKYŌ 霊の経. On the 1156th day of the Kamijikan it was reported that the volunteer brigade under the command of Mayor and Ashigaru captain HONMA MONJARO and the Thegn of Solgaard Conan rallied within the walls of the Flower Capital before launching an overwhelming assault upon the recently lost Wall Masako. It has been noted by the officer corps that foreign support was numerous and left the chain of command ill-prepared to coordinate and divy limited supplies. While a duel was intended between Mayor Honma and the commander of Gashadokuro’s forces, miscommunication led to an all out melee brawl amongst both factions and left a handful of the volunteer brigade injured including Mayor Honma. Despite this setback, the forces of the Volunteer Brigade found success with Mayor Honma striking down the opposing commander and routing enemy forces. The stratocracy extends our gratitude to our brother Honma Monjaro and ally Thegn Conan in the recapture of Wall Masako and our gratitude is also extended to the Honma Survey Corps, the Men of Solgaard, the Rex of Orcgrimmar, the Druids of Nevaehlen and the Ritters of Reinmar. Mayor Honma will be allowed respite and leave from the front for the time being during the refortification of Wall Masako while he recovers from his sustained injuries. . We offer a warning however that disobeying the chain of command that could lead to severe injury of officers, ashigaru or other volunteers will be considered betrayal and may warrant expulsion from the volunteer brigade and/or execution.

THE DWARF CABAL GROWS, 10,000,000 DWARVEN SCREAMERS DECIMATED. NO SURVIVORS NO FUTURE. REMEMBER SHADOW CASTLE. AVE OREN.

"Aiyah..." Shugo Kato keeps his redstone star of Malchediel forehead tattoo hidden under his bandana and mempo, only daring to reveal it to catch do'badders in holy genjitsus.

"War on all sides," Shugo Kato spoke to himself as he looked to the sun scattered through the sakura blossoms above the village. He felt used to the 🔥.

A military governor from the south west of Braevos had just finished the celebration of his stork day when the word to rally was given to him. Bedridden and having been sake'd up the night before, he rolls out of his tatami mat and stuck his head out of the window of the Kato compound to feel the morning rays upon his face. "Yare yare...where is War Captain Takemura? We need to wake the red kami up to give us back our crap,"

no one ever asked the ghost if he consented v_v sad

ON THE MOBILIZATION OF KOYO-KUNI On the Reasons for Arms against the Yosei of the Ravenswood Issued from the Flower Capital of Sakura-Gakure Year of the Kouryuu (Dragaar), 174 SA (1168 Kamijikan) “The vibrations of the Past ripple into the Present. The vibrations of the Present shall ripple into the Future. No being is liberated from the dependence of another. Such is the nature of Causality, and of Time,” KANI 霊 .47 of THE KANINOKYŌ 霊の経. Makoto 誠 and Meiyo 名誉, HONESTY and HONOR are two virtues held in high regard amongst the samurai for they are integral to the value of our character. Who are we if we cannot meet the obligations expected of us? It was upon the 1174th day of the Kamijikan that the Treaty of Kretzen was signed that made official the long standing friendship of the Reinmaren Waldenian and the Oyashi of the Rising Sun since the days we had settled amongst them in the then-Duchy of Minitz and a 500 year long historical friendship with roots back to the first Waldenic Konigreich of Aesterwald. It is upon our honor that we answer the call of our battle brothers in the Principality of Reinmar to expel the do’badders that lurk amidst the Ravenswood and to campaign together. It is an edited list of demands our signature finds itself on, for the original demands of Sakura-Gakure had been met two months after the agreement to campaign together. After agents of Ravenswood had brought word back of Koyo-Kuni’s intentions to collect owed taxes by force in its participation of the campaign, a diplomat was sent bearing a third of the demanded payment - a demanded payment not accounting for a prior wiping of debt at the mercy of the last Primarch Jenny’s will for which Ravenswood was late in but remains unobligated to pay. While the full demanded debt was inevitably paid during the diplomat’s visit and resolved the personal dispute between Sakura-Gakure and Ravenswood, it has not changed the view of Sakura-Gakure upon the Ravenswood - a rump government with an inability to speak with honesty or meet minimal obligations, a former vassal with no respect for the sanctity of the Sakura Forests which their lands for years remained colloquially speaking ‘griefed’ and an eyesore to our West and a former, distant neighbor who has never broke chopsticks with us. To this day your sovereign has never met with us and is as avoidant as a bat to the light. Putting it bluntly, we would rather aid our true allies than parlay for peace on behalf of one who shared a state with us on bad terms and left with a standing debt going on multiple years and only paid under threat of conflict. We have no respect for you. By comparison, the Moonlit Sanctuary of Eittitica had spoken to us with honesty about the vision they themselves held for the Neko-jin and after the payment of remaining debts we parted ways with mutual respect even if we hold no official relations yet with their diaspora. It is because our brothers in Reinmar and friends in Celia’nor sought to support our demands that the Koyo-Kuni Shugonate shall honor and support the demands of theirs upon the Ravenswood. The Koyo-Kuni Shugonate henceforth declares a PARTIAL MOBILIZATION of the Flower-Capital Sakura-Gakure and Mugmar’s Circle in preparation for a possible campaign north alongside the Reinmarens and Celians should their demands not be met. It shall remain optional for the remaining Shōya and their citizens to participate in this campaign but we encourage those in search of the pursuit of glory, justice and honor to rally under the banner of the Shugo. All Men of Hazum and able-bodied Oyashimans of the Hidden Cherry Blossom Village are to acquire armaments from the Stratocracy should they be lacking. All Shōya are to remain on standby for the defense of the state. The Shugonate will at this point make no more personal demands from the Ravenswood aside from the enforcement of its co-belligerents’ demands.
