"It is all kinda stupid" is her answer "When you die for the Crane, it will be over a matter of honour like this. The idea that it might become a war is stupid in the first place. A blood feud is between two individuals, maybe immediate families. It is not for entire clans to cloak themselves in." she shrugs "But hey, at least you get to die for a cause you believe in. The Crane. I might die because my lord accepted money for the Badger going to die for the Crane"

"You mean the spirit of Michio didn't do it?" he asks, recalling the story from class.

"Legend has it the monk Michio beat Goemon in a fight, and then moved on to find stronger opponents," he says, finger to his chin as he recalls what he heard. "But that was a long time ago. Couldn't be what got to him this time."
"Wait, you're part of the group looking into this?"
