Naoe and Yasuke visited the Kumano Hongū Taisha in Kii, and found a monk sweeping near the chozuya. The monk called out to them.
Remorseful monk:You! With the nimble legs!
Naoe:You need help?
Remorseful monk:First, a confession. Before you accept. I... was once a bandit. I left my old life to follow a more spiritual path.
Naoe:This isn't a trick, is it?
Remorseful monk:No trick! My old bandit friends take offense. They've tried to kill me once already.
Naoe:Maybe they think you have not yet earned this new life.
Remorseful monk:Perhaps. But these bandits threaten all monks and pilgrims in the region.
Naoe:Then I will deal with the bandits. For everyone's sake.
Remorseful monk:Thank you. You will be rewarded. Return when the bandits are dead, and when the people are safe. And when my life is no longer at risk.
Remorseful monk:You! With the sturdy stride!
Yasuke:Do you need help?
Remorseful monk:First, a confession. Before you accept. I... was once a bandit. I left my old life to follow a more spiritual path.
Yasuke:This is not some clever trick?
Remorseful monk:No trick! My old bandit friends take offense. They've tried to kill me once already.
Yasuke:They must have taken your new identity to heart.
Remorseful monk:Perhaps. But these bandits threaten all monks and pilgrims in the region.
Yasuke:Then I will deal with them, for the sake of all.
Remorseful monk:Thank you. You will be rewarded. Return when the bandits are dead, and when the people are safe. And when my life is no longer at risk.
Naoe and Yasuke killed a number of bandits across the region. Once they were done, they returned to the monk at the temple.
Naoe/Yasuke:The bandits are gone. You can live your new life in peace.
Remorseful monk:You have done a great service.
Naoe/Yasuke:Stick to this new path. Or I may have cause to return.'
