Mirumoto Aichi was a Dragon Clan bushi and officer of the Shogun Kaneka. He was betrothed with Seppun Isa, daughter of the Shogun's karo and governor of Honored Treaty City Seppun Juro. Live Action Roleplaying, pp. 4-5 (Blood and Honor fiction)
== Breaking his Vows ==
in 1165 Juro summoned Aichi to his castle, but before they met Juro was murdered. Shortly after Aichi broke his betrothal. Juro had summoned Aichi to tell him the truth about Isa's ancestry in person. With Juro dead, was Isa herself who revealed her mother was a peasant. Aichi told that he did not desire her, as Isa was low-born. Live Action Roleplaying, p. 172 (Blood and Honor fiction)
=== Challenged ===
Soshi Yoshino, who had fallen in love of the girl, challenged the Mirumoto, despite the illegal duel would bring dishonor over the Scorpion. The young samurai Shiba Kanshiro convinced Yoshino to select him as his champion. In a duel to first blood Aichi let him win, leaving Seppun Isa's honor intact. Live Action Roleplaying, p. 45 (Blood and Honor fiction)
=== Murderer Exposed ===
Kanshiro exposed the peasant Genjo, Seppun Isa's older brother, as Juro's murderer, and stroke him down when he attempted to escape through force. Juro never had children of his own and had adopted the daughter of one of his servants. In the end, Juro's honor did not allow him to continue the charade, and he summoned Aichi to tell him the truth in person. Genjo acted to stop Juro, so that his sister would have hope for a better life. Eventually Aichi decided to keep his vows of marriage with Isa.
