He has arrived.
He is not a threat, despite having eliminated several members of the Itto-ryu. Kuroi Sabato may have fallen to his blade, but I and the rest of the remaining Itto-ryu will not.
There are other things to prioritize at the moment.
However, it is of value to note that he has no further memory of what has transpired after the girl left him to track me to Kaga. This proves relevant should other members of the Itto-ryu arrive. The decisions concerning the path of the Itto-ryu have been made, and the arriving members can be briefed, should they arrive without memory of these; however, to experience something firsthand creates a different impact upon the members. No matter; we will resume our course of action upon our return, and my plans will be put into action the moment I locate the exit.
On the subject of the exit, the ticking reminds me of the clock, and consequently bears a need for investigation. The guides provided by this citizen enumerates the supposed theories into the existence of the clock. However, it is not tackled why the company of others causes the ticking to dissipate. This also merits thought.
More importantly, however, is the understanding of the importance of this clock in this City, and what it spells for the residents. Perhaps destroying it will allow us to stop the workings of the City; however, this is only one step in locating the exit.
Perhaps there are key points within this City that safeguard its existence. The deities, the clock, and other entities.
I will discover these, and find my way back to Edo. History must continue on my terms, and this City will not stop me.

The last curses have obviously been less than harmful, if one can avoid drunken brawls. The point to these curses, however, remains yet to be seen.
Can one say that appearances within this City are truly of a randomized pattern? Among the numerous individuals and comings and goings, is it coincidence that those of us with previous acquaintances and unfinished businesses are all drawn to this one point?
Perhaps there is reason to all of this.
Makie. Where is Makie?
