Haruto (I)

Please note: This article is about the seneschal. For other uses of the term, please see Haruto (disambiguation).
Haruto was the seneschal of a Provincial Daimyō named Ketsubō. He hired a group of samurai, to find his lord's son, Yotoko, who had been kidnapped by a group of bandits led by a mysterious rōnin. The samurai rescued Yotoko, but in his absence Ketsubō had died, allowing Haruto to take over as provincial daimyō. The learned that Yotoko knew Haruto aimed to take over the region and he had sided with the bandits. He asked for aid in rallying the allied villagers into an army before reclaiming the castle and Yotoko's rightful place as daimyō. When the battle turned against Haruto, he fled to plot his revenge. Haruto dispatched the samurai to settle a border skirmish, and Haruto managed again to take control of the castle in their absence and thrown Yotoko in jail. Eventually the samurai rallied a peasant army and the aid of a nearby daimyō, allowing Ketsubō to retake the castle. Path of Waves, p. 208
