“I was raised as a Kitsune and being relaxed is something we enjoy. To be at one with the world is something a great many of us strive for but few ever achieve,” Shuzo said to the woman with a slight smile. He could tell from her disposition that she would not change her mind on the subject, which was not a bad thing. “It was a pleasure to speak with you,” glancing to his side he noticed the quick approach of Daikichi, the shugenja, and the other man, “but it appears that your captain is approaching.” Nodding his head to the woman he turned away from her is Daikichi took her to the side.
The man gave Shuzo a brief nod, which the archer returned closing his one visible eye, before returning his hands to his sleeves. Shuzo was not sure how to respond to that so he turned his attention to the Shugenja speaking to him. Bowing low, he responded, “It is an honor to be traveling with a shugenja such as yourself,” raising from his bow he continued, “though I do apologize for forgetting your name. We of the Kitsune Family place a great deal of respect in shugenja. Your being here will only make our success that much simpler.”
