From the Message of Master Gokurakuji

If one will fix his heart in such a way and assist the world and its people, he will have the devotion of the men who see and hear of him

Tough times continue for the Uesugi as the Hojo bounce them from Mutsu, slight confusion reigns in the Mori ranks and its high times in the eastern waters as no less than four factions compete for the waters bordering the Pacific.

No retreats are required after the Fall, although we do say goodbye to two more Ronin armies in Yamashiro and Bungo. The Winter 1571 adjustment deadline will be set for Sunday, September 30th (11:59 PM GMT).

Fight on, mighty warriors. Send me an arrow if you spot any adjudication errors.

Cheers,

Trout
