Wojon - A small village on the edge of territories controlled by the Kuji Clan, Autumn, 3214.

SITUATION

The characters are wanders who met each other in their travels.

THE GAME

The Characters are currently wandering in lands controlled by the Kuji Clan. These lands border on the wild lands – populated by goblins and demons and other monstrous aberrations. While walking along a trail Akira hears the moaning of a dying old man off in the bushes.

The group rushes to the old man’s aid but he is beyond saving. He suffers from dozens of stab and slash wounds about his body and has clearly dragged himself a great distance through the mud and jungle – it is a wonder a man of such age could have survived as long as he has!

Daichi does what he can to ease the old man’s suffering and inquires who has done this to him.

With his dying breath the old man tells them that men in black attacked his village. He thinks they were looking for the Idol of Kojuku and begs them to retrieve it and take it to the Temple of Wah. The idol was buried under his hut in the village. Then he expires.

The group tracks their way through the jungle following the trail of blood and broken plants the old man left as he dragged himself. He had covered a startling distance considering his wounds – it took the group nearly half the day to find the village.

When they arrived in the village they came across the scene of a massacre! The entire village murdered and left to rot in the sun! After searching the village for survivors or clues they set to the task of piling up the corpses for burning and digging under what they deduced was the old man’s hut.

By evening they had dug out a small, but very heavy iron chest, locked and sealed. This they assumed to be the Idol but weren’t sure if they should attempt to open the box.

They decided to stay the night in the village as there was no where else for them to really go, and would set out for the temple in the morning…..

While Daichi was taking a turn on watch and saying prayers for the dead he heard a noise (aced on notice – big time) and turned to see some forms in black moving form shadow to shadow – he gave a shout and ran for cover behind on of the buildings as he noticed one was drawing a bow…


In no time the leader of the gang of NINJAS was upon him and slashing at him eith extreme violence!


The others were up, quick as a flash, and battled the ninjas outside their hut!


Daichi was severely wounded but Akira and Isamu were having better luck. Hayato weaved the wind in and out trying to confused and distract the other ninjas.


The ninjas were eventually overcome…


Akira chases down one that tried to escape.

Unfortunately none survived to be questioned….

Why were these ninjas after this idol? Were they hired by someone else or after it for their own nefarious purposes? Stay tuned next week!
