"That's rather fortuitous of you, Isawa-san, did you just end up with more opportunities after your participation?" She paused for a moment to consider. "...Are you familiar with Togashi Myo-en-san by chance?"

"I did." she nodded. "The Cran asked for my assistance in their lands. And, the Togashi offered to train me."

She pulled slightly at her kimono to reveal part of a tattoo.

"I actually joined Myo-en-san and the others outside the walls last night. We were trying to help those who were unable to enter the city."

"You have a very storied past, Isawa-san..." She raised her brows at the tattoo, visibly impressed that she had them done. It seemed a while that people were averse to the idea of getting such a thing done. "Oh, so more than just passing acquaintances then. It must be a pretty small world to be fighting alongside with her once more. I suppose, the idea was war isn't too unfamiliar to you then."

"Unfortunately." she nodded. "I wish we weren't in this situation. But, it pleases me that I can assist in my way."

She dipped into a bow, "Gomen...it wasn't my intention to bring back unpleasant memories," after all, they were just talking about peaceful and pleasant settings.

"At the very least, I think we are appreciative to have your experience and skills here. If anything, I wanted to voice my respect and admiration of your participation in the Shinomen Forest campaign."

She shook her head. "It's alright. It was an interesting experience, but much more good came of it than ill."

"I can't say I know the specifics of the conflict but it seems that many have come out veterans from their experience and there are naga who walk among us as well. It's strange we could speak of the latter so easily."

"Much has changed in the past few years." she agreed. "Much is sure to change in the next few weeks."

Wasako narrowed her eyes for a moment, "I do not doubt that, especially with the passing of the Emperor and the Imperial family needing a successor. Hopefully, the outcome would be vengeful returned spirits wandering the streets of Rokugan as the end result."

"I have faith in the Empire." she responded. "My only concern is the damage that may be done before these spirits are put to rest."

"It's an extraordinary enemy, I was told, even compared to the naga. I don't think they could possibly get very far, right?" It didn't seem like a possibility to Wasako, perhaps the furthest thing from her mind.

"They exist in eternal battle." she explained. "In Toshigoku, they fight. They kill. They die. Then, the rise again, to fight again. They are unrelenting and will not be defeated easily."

"But, they will be defeated." she added with a reassuring smile.

"Of course, I trust Isawa-san in her judgement," she said with a bow to her wisdom, smiling back at her. "We do have a lot of honoured and experienced samurai here, after all."

"Among the things I learned in the Shinomen was that such conflicts are not won simply by heroes and legends. Every blade, every prayer and every encouraging word are crucial.".

"Oh, of course!" She said readily with a firm nod. "I suppose...I'm still trying to find my part in all of this. It seems people know how they could help best, much like yourself and Togashi Myo-en-san."

She shook her head and glanced out at the rain again. "I'm still trying to understand my place."

"I think that's something we would always question, even when we found ourselves in our posts, place or niche. However, I don't think you did anything wrong with your efforts at the wall and helping the refugees with Togashi-san."

She nodded I agreement. "We'll both find many ways to serve. For now, I think I will go enjoy the rain."

"Of course, Isawa-san, I hope we prove ourselves worthy when it happens," she nodded in agreement as well, hoping that she will rise to the occasion when needed. "Should we move on to the Fortune of Wisdom? Perhaps we should his guidance for the future?"

"Fukorokujin's wisdom is always valuable " she nodded and guided her to the shrine.
