Wasp's Blade

The Wasp's Blade was a ronin brotherhood which was treated as part of the Tsuruchi family.
== Origin ==
Since the time of Tsuruchi the winners of the Day of the Wasp tournament joined a rigorous course, and if they finished it, were granted to join the fledging Wasp Clan. Those who had failed used to become part of a larger group of ronin and mercenaries that the Wasp hired to guard Kyuden Ashinagabachi. These ronin in time were known as the Wasp's Blade. Secrets of the Mantis, p. 62
== Kagehisa family ==
Tsuruchi disappeared after the end of the War Against Shadow, disheartening his followers. The ronin leader Kagehisa found Tsuruchi as a retired monk in the Temple of Kaze-no-Kami, gravely wounded and seeking only a life of privacy. Kagehisa retained the secrecy, and when the Tsuruchi family was oficcially recognized by Toturi I, the new Tsuruchi Daimyo Tsuruchi Ichiro, granted Kagehisa his own vassal family, and the Wasp's Blade became the Kagehisa family.
