==Description==<br />
[[Kennyo]] requests help with saving his son, [[Kyonyo]], from a group of bounty hunters.<br />
<!--<br />
==Dialogue==<br />
*'''Kennyo:''' ''A samurai. Friend or foe?''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Friend. I am Yasuke. Of the Kakushiba ikki.''<br />
*'''Kennyo:''' ''Ah. I believe you are acquainted with the abbot of the Ikko ikki, Kyonyo. I am his father, Kennyo. Though he and I have been on different paths for some time now.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Since you signed the peace treaty with Lord Nobunaga. A peace Kyonyo could not agree to.''<br />
*'''Kennyo:''' ''While my desire for peace brought many together, it caused a division between Kyonyo and me. It cost us our bond. And now, it may cost Kyonyo his life.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Kyonyo is in danger?''<br />
*'''Kennyo:''' ''I am told he was attacked. Ambushed by bounty hunters. Under whose orders, I am unsure. I had hoped we would reconcile, but now...''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''I know the pain of things left unsaid between a parent and a child. All too well. What can you tell me of these bounty hunters?''<br />
*'''Kennyo:''' ''This is all I know.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''This will help. I will deal with his hunters. Rest assured, Kyonyo will be safe. And if I may...''<br />
*'''Kennyo:''' ''Please.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Once this is over, speak with your son. Or it will haunt you. Trust me on this.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Bodies. Monks and bandits.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''This confirms a plot to kill Kyonyo. The attackers will regroup after, at Yunomine Onsen.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''This is where Kyonyo's ambushers planned to meet. I should stay hidden and see if any are here.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Inumaru:''' ''I almost had Kyonyo. It's Kamakichi's fault! Busy playing spy games in that decrepit town in Saika. Kyonyo was on the tip of my katana. Another inch, he'd be dead. And I'd be rich. Kamakichi's going to regret this. Same goes for you, all of you, if this gets back to him!''<br />
[]<br />
{{IUNote|Title=Journal Entry Three|Text=I heard Kyonyo's father hired someone to locate his son. Whoever they are, they will be to late to interfere. I'm so close, I can smell the promised reward.}}<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''This bounty hunter, Kamakichi, has been gathering information. Listening in on conversations, perhaps for weeks.''<br />
[]<br />
{{IUNote|Title=Journal Entry One|Text=A samurai, a ronin, and now a beggar. But I will find Kyonyo here and my fortune will change.}}<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Saika. Kyonyo's exact location is not here, but this Kamakichi has revealed himself to me.''<br />
[]<br />
{{IUNote|Title=Journal Entry Two|Text=Someone knows something! The market guards might have disclosed my plan. Regardless, my nightly prowls near the Monk Houses will continue. The Ikko ikki feel safe there - to my advantage.}}<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''I think this can help me find Kamakichi's location.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''That man looks like he's on the watch. It must be Kamakichi.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Saika guard:''' ''No, I saw him. Kyonyo. Dangerous people look for him. Maybe they will come to Saika.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Kamakichi knew Kyonyo's location. I need to find him before the other bounty hunters do.''<br />
[]<br />
{{IUNote|Title=Update from Koyasan|Text= Rumor has it that some ronin were hired to track you down. Be aware of this when you travel. These are dangerous times, and we need to be careful.}}<br />
[]<br />
{{IUNote|Title=Kennyo is at Negoroji|Text=Contacts are saying that Kennyo has arrived in Negoroji and has met with several people there. After the fallout between you two, it will not be surprising if he's trying to undermine you.}}<br />
[]<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' (grunts) ''Life is... full of surprises. One moment I'm getting ambushed by bounty hunters, the next, you stroll in. Oda's giant. The great Yasuke.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''I am here on behalf of our ally, Naoe, and your father. He said you are being hunted.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''I thought he had other priorities. I can handle these bounty hunters.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Your injuries suggest otherwise. They will not rest until you are dead. Or until I deal with them.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' (sighs) ''I cannot afford to be choosy about the help I accept. Not until I'm ready to fight back. I'm... grateful for your aid. Here. This is all I know about the men hunting me. I'd know more, but my contact in Koyasan has gone quiet. If you could check on him, I'd be grateful.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''I will.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''As for me, I'll be moving on. I have to assume my enemies may know I'm here. Meet me in Kumano Sanzan, and when the time is right, we will end the leader. Together.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Stay safe.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''The information Kyonyo shared mentioned this place. One of the bounty hunters is thought to be based here.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''What is that noise?''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Shishi-o:''' ''Your silence only prolongs our suffering. Where is Kyonyo?''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Surely he is one of Kyonyo's hunters.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Shishi-o shared a close bond with the leader of these bounty hunters.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Guard:''' ''I'm so sorry, Tenchi. I should have been here.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''What happened?''<br />
*'''Guard:''' ''The temple's head monk asked me and Tenchi to pick up some papers. Didn't need the two of us, we thought. So Tenchi went to the monk's quarters. Alone. I stopped for a drink. Tenchi was taking so long... I headed over and heard a noise coming from the backyard. It was so dark, but I saw someone running. Must've been whoever killed my friend.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Sounds like the killer was looking for the head monk. Where can I find him?''<br />
*'''Guard:''' ''He should still be at the Monks' District.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Are you the head monk here?''<br />
*'''Head monk:''' ''Tell me who sent you. Before I call the guards.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''I am Yasuke. Kyonyo sent me. He has been expecting an update from you. And based on the dead man near your quarters, you are the next target.''<br />
*'''Head monk:''' ''I feared I was being targeted. Now we know for sure. If you help me, we can set a trap.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''What do you have in mind?''<br />
*'''Head monk:''' ''The building behind me is our best hope. I'll dismiss the guards. Draw him out. Extinguish all the lights. And we'll have our best chance.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Head monk:''' ''Come. Follow me.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Head monk:''' ''All of you. Gather around. I need your assistance.''<br />
[]<br />
{{IUNote|Title=To Kyonyo|Text=Some ronin passed by yesterday. They were asking around town about you. One of them looked at me like he knew me. I'm worried that someone might've told them something.}}<br />
[]<br />
*'''Head monk:''' ''Wait for nightfall. Extinguish every light. That is out best chance.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''I think that is the last of them. I will tell Kyonyo his immediate threats are dealt with.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Head monk:''' ''Thank you, Yasuke. I will await word from Kyonyo.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Kyonyo and his soldiers.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''All that remains is the bounty hunter leader. What is wrong?''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''He has kidnapped my father.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''To draw you out.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''They think I will run to him. After what he has put us through!''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''You have a chance to take your father back. Before all is lost. I know what that loss feels like. You cannot turn away from that chance.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' (scoffs)<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''I would give anything for it myself.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''Akagi Fort. That's where they are holding him. Our enemy is called Tsuchi-Gumo.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Then wait for me there. And you will have your chance.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''Come. I have already waited as long as I dare.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Any word on your father?''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''He's alive. They're keeping him in full view. For now.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''If they see you, they will kill him.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''They've forced my hand. I cannot stand by and do nothing. "Fight for something greater than yourself. The Great Amida will forgive you." That's what he always said, my father.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''He is right. You need to fight for what you believe in.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''I know. I can't retreat now.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''It is time.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''Then what are we waiting for?''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''We must do this together. Protect your father. I will go after Tsuchi-Gumo.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''Good hunting.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Tsuchi-Gumo:''' ''The ronin Yasuke. Fighting for the wrong man again.''<br />
[]<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Please. Forgive my interruption.''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''I think you have more than earned our attention. I would formally introduce you, but...'' (scoffs) ''it seems you have been conspiring behind my back for some time.''<br />
*'''Kennyo:''' ''These men who hunted my son were associates of Wada Koretake. Since Koretake's death, these bounty hunters preyed upon the people of Kii. And when they saw an opportunity for revenge...''<br />
*'''Kyonyo:''' ''...they got what they were owed.'' (breathes) ''My father and I have much to discuss. Should our paths cross again, Yasuke, I hope it involves slightly less killing.''<br />
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Agreed. Or, if we must, fighting for peace. Take care of each other.''<br />
