Ryota

Ryota was a peasant. His older brother, Sakae, was conscripted into a Great Clan army at an early age. Eventually Ryota was captured in a raid by an opposing clan. Later, Ryota joined a group of armed peasants to defend themselves from roving bands of samurai. Eventually his group ambushed an ashigaru unit led by a samurai bushi which had been sent to clear the area from peasant thieves. When Ryota recognized Sakae, he begged for forgiveness, but the bushi was firm that the peasants must face justice for attacking his clan's forces and ordered his ashigaru to continue the battle.
