Answer to Shogun:

To the best of my knowledge, a samurai does not put on display the head of every peasant, bandit and dog he kills, nor a lowly warrior for that matter. These are instead gathered in piles and torched, or flung into massgraves and buried. This is how all samurai treat victims of no distinction. I see no reason why I should be an exception to this rule. If a daimyô fails to honour his stature, he is worse than a peasant who honor his. So if the peasant is burned or buried when killed, so will the daimyô be. This is the way of the Ôtomo.

Answer to Yamana Yoshisada:

I never backstabbed or betrayed you, I never were your ally or friend prior to the deal I struck with Amako, after the events you refer to. Then he was the one to break our agreement. Before that, I had no deals with either of you whatsoever. Get your stories straight for once in your life.
