Hinode

Hinode is a small village/town in the southeast of the Eastern Country, just north of Mino. It is famous for its' hot springs, which are often used for bathing. Takeo, during his youth as Tomasu, had heard that "the men were cheats and the women were as hot as the springs and would lie down with you for the price of a glass of wine." Takeo and Otori Shigeru only stayed there briefly in their escape from Mino, during which Takeo was forced to give up his identity as a member of the Hidden; he also began to lose his voice and experience enhanced hearing, due to his Tribe blood.
It is unclear whether Hinode is run directly by a local clan or by a village headman. It contains an inn built around the hot springs, stables and several brothels.
