==Description==
Naoe and Yagoro meet outside the Chasuriyama Kofun.
<!--
==Dialogue==
*'''Yagoro:''' ''I kept thinking back to that "blade made of shadows." The one Haru mentioned. My search brought me here.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''I've been in there before. You should go in. I'm sure you'll find something worthwhile in there.''
*'''Yagoro:''' ''I think we should go together, Miss Naoe.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''Your search brought us here, Yagoro. You deserve to go first.''
*'''Yagoro:''' ''If you think so, Miss Naoe. I don't want to trespass.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''You don't need anyone's permission to enter. You've earned your place here. Go. I'll be right behind.''
[]
*'''Naoe:''' ''Time to follow after Yagoro. Make sure everything's all right.''
[]
*'''Naoe:''' ''Oh, good. Yagoro's already here.''
[]
*'''Yagoro:''' ''Miss Naoe, look! A real one!''
*'''Naoe:''' ''It's what you wanted all this time. Go on. It won't bite.''
*'''Yagoro:''' ''But my training isn't done. I don't think I should have this.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''Fubuki wanted someone to continue her work. Without her guidance, it's up to us to figure out what that means. Together. To honor those that came before.''
*'''Yagoro:''' ''I... Thank you. I will devote my life to proving worthy of it. Can you do a favor for me? A proper... ceremony? From teacher to apprentice.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''We've been over this, Yagoro. You are my ally. Not an apprentice.''
*'''Yagoro:''' ''Without you and Yasuke, I would still be lurking in the bushes outside bandit camps, daring myself to do something.''
He bowed to her.
*'''Yagoro:''' ''Please, Miss Naoe. I feel like this requires something... proper.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''Fine. Um. Today, a brother joins those of us who work in the shadows to... um, welcome the light.''
Naoe walked over to the chest containing the Hidden Blade.
*'''Naoe:''' ''Wearing this blade comes with a promise and a path, fraught with difficulty. Sooner or later, you will lose your way. This blade cannot tell you where to go. It will only answer with more questions. But that is our journey. Trust in the promise you made to yourself and your home, and the path will show itself again. In the name of those who are lost, but whose spirit remains, I entrust this blade to you, Yagoro. Welcome to the Kakushiba ikki.''
Naoe gave him the chest.
*'''Yagoro:''' ''I will bring it back to Miss Tomiko's. Place it somewhere for all to see. To remind everyone of those who walked this path before. And to greet those who have yet to walk it.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''You're not going to wear it?''
*'''Yagoro:''' ''It's a fine weapon, but... the weight is different from my own. It would affect my balance. I got my real blade a long time ago. The day our paths first crossed.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''How long have you been holding onto that one?''
*'''Yagoro:''' ''As a man of Kakushiba ikki, I must keep my secrets close.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''Very good. Let's go, Yagoro.''-->

==Outcome==
Naoe presented Yagoro with a Hidden Blade used by the Kakushiba ikki of before.
