Lyse 	If it's strength we need, then it's strength we'll get. We can't lose to him again...
 	
Resistance02492	To think that warriors such as you journeyed across the seas to aid our cause... We cannot thank you enough!
 	
Yugiri 	Now then, I should be glad to discuss our next course of action─
Yugiri 	Though now that I think on it, I myself have been away from Doma for some time, and even after my return, the search for Lord Hien commanded my full attention...
Yugiri 	Mayhap it would be to both our benefit if we were to see the reality of Doma for ourselves. For did my lord not bid me learn the truth of her heart?
Yugiri 	Let us do this together, [Player Name]. Let us go among the people and with our own eyes bear witness to their hardship.
Yugiri 	As a foreigner in these lands, your reputation does not precede you. Moreover, unlike Gosetsu, I can accompany you without attracting unwanted attention.
Lyse 	I'd like to join you, if that's all right.
Yugiri 	By all means. We should be glad of your company, and your perspective.
Yugiri 	Namai is not far. I say we begin there.
 	
Lyse 	Yugiri told me to wear this outfit. My legs haven't felt this light and airy in ages!
 	
Yugiri 	Ah, [Player Name]. I am glad to see that you too put thought into your garments given the covert nature of our activities.
Yugiri 	Hm? I should think my reasons obvious. To enter the village while wearing the garb of the shinobi would be beyond reckless─though you may tempt fate, if that is your wont.../.
Yugiri 	We shall pose as traveling merchants─[Player Name] as our leader, and we as her/his assistants. Are there any objections?
Lyse 	I'm not really the merchant type, but if you think this is the best way to go about it, I'll trust you.
Yugiri 	Then without further ado, let us begin.
 	
Chigusa 	You? A merchant? Forgive me my skepticism, but you strike me less a woman/man of commerce and more a common sellsword.
Chigusa 	That does little to assuage my doubts, and if anything makes me clutch my coinpurse tighter...
Chigusa 	I stand corrected! Such a warm and cordial nature you possess. I pray you forgive me my earlier rudeness.
Chigusa 	It has been some time since the viceroy came to our village to purge it of insurgents. Those who resisted suffered terribly, and those who did not fared little better.
Chigusa 	We who remain know better than to risk her ire. If the imperials demand laborers, we comply. If they demand conscripts to send as soldiers to other provinces, we obey.
Chigusa 	Ours is a difficult life, with little in the way of luxuries. I know not what you sell, merchant, but I doubt that I─nor anyone else here─can afford it.
Chigusa 	My apologies, merchant, but you will find no custom here.
 	
Miyama 	Foreign peddlers? In Namai? Whatever it is you sell, I have no money to buy. Perhaps you should go elsewhere.
Miyama 	Saying that, I know of no village in Yanxia that has fared any better. Once, I would have directed you to the samurai lords of Monzen─had they not all died in battle or in the purges.
Miyama 	There is the Doman Enclave, of course, but that lies beyond the Dairyu Moon Gates. Needless to say, the imperials are disinclined to let any but their own pass.
Miyama 	You cannot pass through the Moon Gates without the blessing of the imperials. In other words, you will not pass through the Moon Gates.
 	
Honami 	Weren't you the one who came with the general? No? Hmm. I see... My mistake.
Honami 	It warms my heart to see traveling merchants in Namai again. Though the imperials never sealed our borders, folks like you have taken to avoiding Yanxia ever since the rebellion.
Honami 	Unfortunately, that has only made it harder for us to survive. You may have noticed, but we lack for a great many things. It was not much better before, true, but it has only gotten worse...
Honami 	What are you selling? I have a few koban stashed away, if you will accept them.
...What is wrong? Why do you hesitate? You are a merchant, are you not?
Masatsuchi 	A traveling merchant? With meat, perchance? Bah, better not to know when I have so little coin.
Masatsuchi 	...I feel your eyes upon me. You know not the Lupin? Surely you have not been long in Yanxia, else you would.
Masatsuchi 	For generations we served the lords of Doma, compassionate and wise as they were...but the memories of such times fade with every passing day. As others will tell you.
Masatsuchi 	If I may, would you be so kind as to spare... No, never mind.
 	
Lyse 	I've seen these looks before. That same weary hopelessness. It's just like Ala Gannha...
 	
Yugiri 	[Player Name]. What have you learned?
Yugiri 	Lyse and I encountered much of the same. They have been pushed beyond the brink.
Yugiri 	I expected frustration and disillusionment, but not so much that they would come to question the wisdom of opposing imperial rule in the first place...
Yugiri 	Unless we can convince them otherwise, I fear I cannot convince Lord Hien to return, and without him...
