things i can't say

My Lord Daimyo,

I am quite flattered that you prefer me to be around as much as I am humanly able, which is twelve hours each day out of twenty-four.

And the offer of having me relocated to serve in the Palace's shrine so that you may acquire a more spiritual sense and perhaps even obtain enlightenment is truly generous.

However, I must decline the latter as Momoko is already permanently placed with you as your "courtesan" and as for the former politely remind His Lordship that while yes, I am a servant of the Divine, I am also human and need to sleep. I cannot be around you always. Tsuneari is quite capable of protecting you even if he cannot do the genius technique.

Trust me. The bear of a man with the giant battle axe is much more intimidating than the tiny monk in orange robes. Knowledge of the genius technique is not public, and I would very much enjoy it if it remained that way.

Kindest regards,
Chiriku

on tour, letters, daimyo-sama
