She nodded certainly. A bunch. Completely serious. Tenshin exhaled, looking between the two. Pondering the implications. "Certainly... troubling. But... to even say such a thing would be difficult. I'm... not sure who I could even go to with this knowledge." The magistrate pondered, beginning to pa...

Tenshin drew breath slowly. He knew, as every one else in the family knew, that Sakura had always seen beyond. But something like this... "You are certain? Not a trick of the light? Nothing of the sort?" It wasn't said with any hint of doubting her, but of working through what it could mean, externa...

"The honor is mine. I was very glad to see the way you all worked, and as I said, your works brought good results, even if the full outcome isn't as tidy as I would like." He nodded, smiling genuinely at the group. "Having a group of Topaz contenders, who did what was right for the Empire, would be ...

Tenshin steadied himself, watching the pair closely. A hand brought to his chin as he pondered. "And what was it that you saw?" He raised an eyebrow, quizzicly. "Please, speak freely."

Tenshin was at his desk, a pot of tea already on. His left hand holding a brush, as he wrote down reports. His hat gently laid on his desk, while he hummed briefly to himself. Rising as his sister and her likely soon to be betrothed, he bowed. "Good morning, dear sister. Hello to you as well, Seppun...

"Thank you all for coming." He bows to them all in turn. "I will cut straight to the chase. Thanks to your efforts, we were able to put a stop to the opium smuggling here in Tsuma." His smile shrank back slightly, looking away for a moment. "However Kasuga Touji-san was no where to be found. We were...

Asahina Tenshin was standing, waiting for the young scooby gang to arrive. There was a pleasant smile on his features. His trusty yojimbo waited by him as well.

She smiled at that, before pressing lips together to temper her joy. In truth she could've leapt over the table and hugged Tenshin so hard... "Thank you, thank you, thank you... Truly, sweetest brother," Sakura said softly. Their mother and father would certainly agree if the recommendation came fr...

Urusai resumes his seat after the magistrate does and says "That Asahina-bugyo enjoys tea is an auspicious sign, for of such is this token of appreciation for his service and example, offered in a hopeful spirit" as he lifts the small box and presents it to Tenshin in both hands. He will go through...

The hat of power of Asahina Tenshin is the first thing anyone notices when he walks into the Red Lotus. His yojimbo does not accompany him at this time, and the serious, yet not without humor man walks towards the table with the two already engrossed in conversation. "Sakura-chan." He bows to his yo...

The group was ushered through the halls to the room that derved as the office of Asahina Tenshin. His yohimbo was standing at th door, while the courtier sat at a desk, transcribing some scrolls. "Ah, good morning young ones." He was smiling brightly as he looked at the gang. "I hope Inari-no-kami h...

Tenshin offered a sad smileto those gathered, then a bow. "If you excuse me, candidates. I must collect testimony, and begin a new report for this one. Again, if you all see anything that could lead to an end to this plight, I would be most grateful." The Asahina looked to his yojimbo, and then went...

"That is all I can ask. I thank you for any assistance, but understand if the upcoming tests take your focus. Hopefully, with diligence, I will get to the bottom of this plague on our fair city." Tenshin bows to the gathered. Then back to where the body had been collected from. "It is a great shame,...

The Asahina pondered again, beginning to pace in place, "I cannot officially charge you into my service, as you have not yet passed your gempukku. And your priority should be the focus on the championship. But if you are able to uncover something, this one would be most grateful." He bowed to the ca...

The man sighed, shaking his head. The burly Daidoji that seemed to be his shadow busied himself with ushering away the crowd. The woman who had shrieked, the Daidoji softened his approach, treating her with upmost compassion, ensuring she would be undisturbed as he helped disperse the crowd. "A stri...

"Make way, make way!" A hurried voice carried over the clamor of onlookers. A boulder of a man, the Daidoji mon on his kimono prominent, pushed aside through onlookers. Yet it wasn't he who spoke. The hat of power of Asahina Tenshin broke through the crowd. "Do not touch anything!" He commanded, his...
