In 438 Mochiko rejoined the Lion Clan and won the Test of the Emerald Champion. Imperial Histories, p. 73 Her lieutenant Katai, formerly known as Akodo Katai, moved the ronin group near the Lion lands. The Ikoma discovered history of Mochiko, and decided to nip the potential for rumor about the truth of Mochiko's past, a Daimyo who defied an Emperor. The Katai family was formed with the ronin, as a Vassal family of the Akodo. 
=== 12th century ===
When the Akodo were disbanded in 1123 they remained doing the same, as ronin again. In 1133 the Akodo family was reinstated as well as the Katai. A Dojo was building at Rengai Mura by Katai Seihai.
