Actually, the mention of brotherhood there made me wonder. Does the brotherhood hold big meetings between temple heads like a winter court for only monks? Would they invite reps from clan monk orders in the same way there are reps for the brotherhood at samurai courts?

They do have conclaves when there are important spiritual matters of the Empire that need to be discussed.

Should the Crane and the Scorpion be merged into the Hawk Clan to have one clan for each element? (No)

Is Fudoism any good? (No)

Do these Perfect Land sect types have the right ideas after all? (No)

Not as extravagant as winter courts, mostly just discussion mixed with some punching when talks break down :D

New idea: Brotherhood conclave where the Togashi and Asako show up, and everyone is trying to decide if they can stay or not.

Also, Kuni.

But when the ultimate decision is no because that seems to be the trend, they will need to decide who gets to ask the Crab to leave.

And thus it became a de facto yes.

Ahiru giggled a bit and smiled triumphantly as she saw her betrothed's performance. Maybe she'd have to make sure he got some nice powder-blue outfits to wear soon.

Admiral Funagao's first decree to the Doji Navy of Awesome Ships was....discarding shirts.

For some odd reason.

With 28 players and only 3 places on the podium, there's a 90% chance to completely fail any given event anyway. Better get used to humbling quickly.
