The Yaneura-gumi is a group that hires out warriors — and others, too actually — to armies in need. For the past 2 weeks, Teruyoshi and I, under Haruo's command, have been fighting for a group based in the capital, with the somewhat odd name of Clan Mōfō.

As a rank-and-file fighter who isn't even a formal member of the Yaneura-gumi, I haven't been privy to any of the large-scale strategic plans, so I have been unaware of our progress. But yesterday I learned that there will be an inspection by Mōfō personnel today, because the campaign is nearly done.

By the fourth hour after midday, all must be ready. Teruyoshi and I must be available, not busy fighting, and yet ready to look as though we are busy at a moment's notice. (Truly, military inspections are often quite silly.)

Even once the Mōfō's campaign is done, I suspect the Yaneura-gumi may still have more for me to do. But exactly what, I have no idea yet. In the meantime, I must be sure to have Zenchihō, the large and formidable fighter, quite thoroughly dead by the time the inspection happens.
