I got a monk to ferment a rebellion, but the rebel army appeared on top of him, in Aki right next to the castle. So both he and the rebel army got stuck, and it's been 5+ years. I wonder if the rebels will be 'released' when he dies of old age in a decade or so. Can't attack the army or move the monk. Hmm, maybe i should try and bribe them. They haven't lost anyone due to winter attrition.
