== Accused ==
During his wonderings Yoshi was incarcerated several nights because his traveling papers before his daimyo straightened the matter out. In the jail he met a murderer, Fukuro, who slipped out of his prison cell just hours before his scheduled execution. Days later Yoshi was caught by a group of samurai who claimed him as Fukuro. The resident Emerald Magistrate had given them a copy of Whispers of the Land and a lock of Fukuro's hair in order to help them hunt him down. The samurai eventually realized the mistake, mislead by an accompliance of the murdered. A bushi stationed in the jail, cousin to Fukuro, had taken a lock of Yoshi during his sleep, and passed it to the Magistrate. Both Fukuro and his cousin were captured and executed, leaving Yoshi released from any trouble. Walking the Way, p. 29
