Nemuranai

Nemuranai were man made items of exceptional quality that had had their kami awakened, either through the skill used in creating them or through their association with great deeds.
== Type of awakenings ==
The two types of spirits within an item are the shen, or benevolent spirit, and the kuei, or malevolent forces of the tainted nemuranai. The awakened kami allowed these items to grant their users fantastic and magical abilities. Way of the Crane, pp. 36-37 The items most likely to awaken were weapons and armor, and the most famous and powerful nemuranai were items of this type. Way of the Crane, p. 37 Shutsudohin, the spirits within the nemuranai, manifested in Yomi at any time the item was destroyed. Fortunes & Winds, p. 61

=== Tsi Xing Guo's Last Gift ===
After the death of Rosoku ten blades were created as a parting gift by Tsi Xing Guo, the Fortune of Steel. The blades were given to the Keeper of the Five Rings, Asahina Sekawa, and intended to be wielded by heroes to carve a new destiny for themselves. Sekawa disseminated the blades among the clans, where heroes have indeed taken them up and made them their own. Age of the Lotus (Lotus Rulebook Story), by Rich Wulf Souls of Steel
