== Term ==
The Rokugani character for Senkyō also denoted both the concept of a capricious magical being who lived in an otherworldly wilderness and the concept of a human (usually a hermit-sage) who had achieved immortality by alchemical or divine means. Celestial Realms, p. 20
== Court Organization ==
Chikushō-dō‎ and Sakkaku had its own court, which had a leader, a council of elders or nobles, and many commoners who were expected to do the bidding of the leader and elders, who in turn took care of them. A Great Tengu was a spiritual and philosophical leader who was the highest authority of one of the individual courts that made up these courts, though this leader was not necessarily a tengu (one of the Five Ancient Races that ruled before long before the Kami fell). Celestial Realms, p. 21
