"It is a word uncommonly heard outside the Scorpion, as it is entirely of our own creation. And I'm certain more than a few Crane would take exception at your reverie of the Butei school, so I especially thank you for the comparison." He smiled a genuine smile.

"Perhaps, if it okay with you, Nagiko-san, we could continue to meet in the future? You can direct me in the way of the sword, and I can direct you in the way of the stage."

'' Of course Bayushi-san, i will be greatly honored to meet again with you.'' She stood up and bowed.

'' It is a deal then, i will teach you about the sword and you about acting, neh?'' She said to him.

Degarashi stood as well, returning Nagiko's bow with equal respect. "Then I look forward to our next meeting."

His eyes dipped for a moment, and a recognizable tone entered his voice. "Are we parting ways now, Nagiko-san?"

''~Momentarily~'' She replied with a purr like tone.

'' I will be looking forward to hearing from you, and to watch your performance, Bayushi-san. I will be truly honored.'' She said to him as she picked up her daisho.

''We could arrange for those training lessons. I suppose that you are stying with the rest of the guest at the governor's castle. So we could meet around there.'' She said as she bowed respectfully.

'' May the Fortunes and your Ancestors watch over your path, Bayushi Degarashi-san'' She bowed again.

"And may they find favor with you as well, Nagiko-san." Degarashi returned her bow, a soft smile upon his lips.

"I am certain if you cannot find me at the castle, one of my fellows will know how to reach me. But if you so call, I will answer. It is with great anticipation that I look forward to our next encounter."

Nagiko returned the smile to him and then moved gracefully to the tatami door and then exited the room.

It was a really intesting meeting. Certainly one that she did not expect to have during a casual walk around the city streets.

'' Quite a fascinating ningen, right? Hime-chan...'' She said to herself as she walked through the streets again.
