Re: OOC Chat
Everybody wanna be Imperial this timeline. :lol: The Imperial families outnumber any other Clan in numbers. Combine Shiba's sheer popularity (how we ended up with him on the throne) with a certain degree of, let us say over-specialization in some of the families (kind of the reverse of the Asako in...

Re: Master of the Sword (Tyrus Q&A)
So what was up with Riki? After a brief thread with Sora and Nanzi, the guy seemed to kind of evaporate.

Re: Adoption
Yoritomo and Aramasu indicate that, at least in canon, it wasn't considered too much of a stretch. Likewise, the Horiuchi Family, born of a typo though it may have been, formally adopted orphans as a matter of course. In the Birbverse we so merrily populate, it's still early days yet, but the Imperi...

Re: Final Farewells [D24, EE, expecting]
Sora shot a glance at Jin.
"First day of his reign, I told him. That was almost a year before he entrusted me with the safety of his first child, so if he's directly opposed, he has a funny way of showing it. I think he understands that trust is earned."

"In fairness to Togashi, his followers come looking for him, not the other way around... But yes, part of why I serve Shiba is because he actually considers consequences."

Re: Final Farewells [D24, EE, expecting]
Sora weighed the issue... and then, very quietly, spelled out the broad strokes of keeping an eye on the Kami in the name of preserving human freedom to make their own decisions.

Re: Final Farewells [D24, EE, expecting]
"I know for a fact that the Emperor would at the very least listen to such a petition- the Tribe of Isawa has not only sent aid on this mission in your person, they have also supplied the Lady of the Spider, my kohai, Ayumu, and not least, my intended, Kinyoubi. From my own standpoint, a tribe that ...

Re: Final Farewells [D24, EE, expecting]
Sora frowned. "Clans have Kami. You could perhaps join a Clan as a family- I know the Takemori intend to make a case for being an Imperial Family, for example. But I think the choice should be made before a conflict, so you don't run the risk of having terms dictated to you by the victors. Shiba and...

"Naturally. Unlike some, neither Jin nor I expect 'service to the Empire' to count for much with people who aren't technically part of it."

Re: [Day 22, Late Morning] Let the Healing Begin (Expecting)
"In that case, I'll have to see about getting the princesses out for some fishing time while you're there. Could be a nice break from the trail... for all of us. But for now, you're right, we should head back, if only because I think it's going to be a long day."

Re: Final Farewells [D24, EE, expecting]
"We can probably dispense with the pure hatchet jobs- they'd be a hard sell- and anyway, whatever I may think of some of his siblings, Shiba has not just my loyalty, but my genuine respect and admiration. But these other three sound promising."

"All of which goes to show that we, at least, won't be too terribly upset if the Tribe of Isawa produces some texts which question the Kami .."
