Unexpectedly, you find yourself back in Ransmannsby, where you trained to
be a thief. Quickly you make the guild sign, hoping that you AND word
of your arrival reach %ls den.

Once again, you find yourself back in Ransmannsby. Fond memories are
replaced by fear, knowing that %l is waiting for you.

maybe you could work off your back dues by performing a little job for
me. Let us just see if you are ready..."

-%Cp Rog 00016
+%E [You owe back dues to your guild. You can pay them off if you're up to the job.]
+%Cc Rog 00016
"Well, I didn't expect to see you back. It shows that you are either stupid,
or you are finally ready to accept my offer. Let us hope for your sake it
isn't stupidity that brings you back."
-%E
+%E [Are you stupid or are you ready?]
%Cp Rog 00017
"Did you perhaps mistake me for some other %lt? You must
think me as stupid as your behavior. I warn you not to try my patience."
Your sudden shift in surroundings prevents you from hearing the end
of %ls curse.
-%E
+%E [You must go.]
%Cc Rog 00019
"In the time that you've been gone you've only been able to master the
arts of %ra? I've trained ten times again as many %Rp
in that time. Maybe I should send one of them, no? Where would that
leave you, %p? Oh yeah, I remember, I was going to kill you!"
-%E
+%E [%rA is not adequately trained to handle this job.]
%Cc Rog 00020
"Maybe I should chain you to my perch here for a while. Perhaps watching
real %a men at work will bring some sense back to you. I don't
think I could stand the sight of you for that long though. Come back
when you can be trusted to act properly."
-%E
+%E [Come back when you are really %a.]
%Cc Rog 00021
"Will everyone not going to retrieve %o from that
jerk, %n, take one step backwards. Good choice,
has %o. You are going to get %o
and bring it back to me. So simple an assignment even you can understand
it."
-%E
+%E [Get %o from %n and bring it to %l.]
%Cp Rog 00025
"You don't seem to understand,
%o isn't here so neither should you be!"
"We're almost out of hell-hound chow, so why don't you just get moving!"

%E
%Cc Rog 00040
You feel a great swelling up of courage, sensing the presence of
%o. Or is it fear?

%Cp Rog 00041
The hairs on the back of your neck whisper -- it's fear.

+%Cc Rog 00052
"Surely, %p, you have learned that you cannot trust any bargains
that %l has made. I can show you how to continue on
your quest without having to run into him again."
-%E
-%Cp Rog 00053
+%E [You cannot trust %l.]
+%Cc Rog 00053
"Please, think for a moment about what you are doing. Do you truly
believe that %d would want %l to have
%o?"
-%E
+%E [%lC should not have %o.]
%Cp Rog 00060
"May I suggest a compromise. Are you interested in gold or gems?"
%E
"It is a shame that we are not meeting under more pleasant circumstances."

willing to die to keep it out of %ls hands. Somehow
you know that you must do likewise.

You sit and wait for death to come for %n, and then you
brace yourself for your next meeting with %l!
-%E
+%E [Before dying, %n tells you to use the %o wisely.]
%Cc Rog 00081
"Well, I'll be damned. You got it. I am proud of you, a fine %r
you've turned out to be.
"But, you see what happened to %n when he refused.
Don't make me find another to send after you this time."

"I see that with your abilities, and my brains, we could rule this world.
"All that we would need to be all-powerful is for you to take that little
trinket you've got there up to the Astral Plane. From there, %d will

You quickly say a prayer to Izanagi and Izanami and walk towards
town.

Once again, you are back at %H.

+%Cc Sam 00003
You are back at %H.
Instantly you sense a subtle change in your karma. You seem to know that
if you do not succeed in your quest, %n will have destroyed
the kami of %H before you return again.
-%E
+%E [%HC is threatened by %n.]
%Cp Sam 00005
"To succeed, you must walk like a butterfly on the wind."
%E
"Ah, %p-san, it is good to see you again. I need someone who can
lead my samurai against %n. If you are ready, you will be
that person."
-%E
+%E [%lC needs someone to lead %lj samurai against %n. Are you ready?]

"You begin to test my matsu, %p-san.
If you cannot determine what I want in a samurai, how can I rely on you
to figure out what I need from a samurai?"
-%E
+%E [Are you truely a samurai?]
%Cc Sam 00018
"You are no longer my samurai, %p.
"Hara-kiri is denied. You are ordered to shave your head and then to
become a monk. Your fief and family are forfeit. Wakarimasu ka?"
-%E
+%E [Leave and do not come back.]
%Cc Sam 00019
"%p-san, you have learned well and honored your family.
I require the skills of %Ra in order to defeat %n.

+%Cp Sam 00035
You instinctively reach for your swords. You do not recognize the
lay of this land, but you know that your teki are everywhere.
%E
You become like the rice plant and bend to the ground, offering a
prayer to %d. But when the wind has passed, you stand
proudly again. Putting your kami in the hands of fate, you advance.
-%E
+%E [You feel the taunts %n, but after offering a prayer to %d, you proceed.]

As you arrive once again at the home of %n, your thoughts

+%Cp Sam 00050
"Ah, so it is to be you, %p-san. I offer you seppuku.
I will be your second if you wish."
%E
You realize at once why so many good samurai had to die to defend it.
You are humbled knowing that you hold one of the artifacts of the
sun goddess.
-%E
+%E [You feel the power of %o and are humbled.]
%Cc Sam 00080
Your healing skills tell you that %ns wounds are mortal.
You order that his unwashed head be given to the crows and his body
