I'm a Berserker,[sr]so I can't really be bothered. [k] [messageOff] [se ad407] [seStop ad407 0.7] [wt 1.0] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell Anyway, nice job tonight, Kālasūtra Hell. As for me, I went ahead and lapped up every bit of suffering, regret, and hate I could find. [k] @Rider of Kālasūtra Hell What a little sneak... If I weren't a Heroic Spirit Swordmaster, you would have been the first I killed. [k] @Rider of Kālasūtra Hell How terribly irritating. [k] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell Ahaha, sorry about that. By the way, Kālasūtra Hell,[sr]I don't suppose you'd like to try something out? [k] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell You see, my Noble Phantasm's all filled up now.[sr]In fact, it's a little too full. [k] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell I'd like to go ahead and pour it all out...but if I did that, it might end up melting a whole province or two. What do you think? [k] @Rider of Kālasūtra Hell That is what you wish to do? Commit a pointless atrocity when Onriedo is nearly upon us? [k] @Rider of Kālasūtra Hell ...Oh, very well. [k] @Rider of Kālasūtra Hell In that case, why don't we venture over to the neighboring province of Sagami? I've always wanted to see the Ashigara region for myself. [k] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell Sagami, eh. What about Edo then?[sr]Shall I eat everyone there while I'm at it? [k] @Rider of Kālasūtra Hell Oh yes, Edo. A city where people from all walks of life come together. [k] @Rider of Kālasūtra Hell It reminds me of an anthill more than anything.[sr]In my time, the eastern lands were never so populated. [k] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell So? What do you say? [k] @Rider of Kālasūtra Hell ...I say no. The Lord Sorcerer has his own[sr]sights set on Edo. We should leave it alone. [k] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell Then Sagami it is. [k] @Rider of Kālasūtra Hell Agreed. Let us dye its ocean bloodred. I do have some attachment to the Kamakura shogunate, but Sagami was the home of the loathesome Houjou clan. [k] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell I thought the Houjou didn't matter anymore[sr]in this period. Well, whatever. [k] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell Danzo. I know you're about.[sr]Tell the others we're going to Sagami for a spell.

Neither Lord Limbo, nor Lord Empireo, nor the Lord Sorcerer told you to destroy Sagami. [k] @Danzo Please, I ask that you reconsider!

[k] @Berserker of Saṃghāta Hell Apologies, Danzo, that's just how it is.[sr]Hold the fort for us while we're away.
