Re: Chapter 6 - Further Investigation
Though the battle is likely long past, Toshirou draws his Jitte from it's place at his belt--the situation is not yet so dire he would draw his grandfather's soul. "The battle moved from here to Doji Sotan-san's room." His fingers trace slashes through the rice-paper walls. "See how there are twice as many slashes on the left as on the right? The Steel Curtain style sweeps blows back and forth with bot blades at once, but the off-hand Wakizashi is too short to mark the right-hand wall across the duelist's body." As he explains, he mimes the appropriate sword technique. Though Toshirou is not clumsy, it is clear that he is not a master of the style. "This is Mirumoto Yamada-san's work, no doubt. But...a fight this severe, yet it did not raise an alarm or attract the guards?"
Ready for anything, Toshirou moves forward. "Sotan-san?" He calls.
[Private to GM: Right now, my character suspects the involvement of Shugenja, on the theory that a spell of silence is the only explanation for this fight failing to attract attention. Is that assumption warranted? Or is there another reason this skirmish might have gone unnoticed?]
