n the years past, there'd been much fighting in the realm. It was, as all except the overtly cocky feared, the beginnings of war. And I was at the time still young: young and overtrusting of my lord's decisions and ideals.I was, as the young usually are, wrong. It was his choice which led us to war... A younger one sat on his haunches, enjoying the day's rations while silently anticipating the order to invade Lord Kitsune's realm. It was to come from the shogun Babu when ready, after all he was our lord's favored warrior. The word came abruptly and shook the trainee mentioned earlier to attention. "Attack! Attack!"
