Kaze:
Brother... do you have a moment?


Saizo:
Ah, hello, Kaze. What is it?


Kaze:
For many years now, you have been working tirelessly to avenge our father's death... M-may I... ask you about it?


Saizo:
...What?


Kaze:
Well, of course I understand why you want to kill the man who murdered our father... But you've been... consumed by it. I was wondering if there might be more to it...


Saizo:
I don't know what you're talking about.


Kaze:
Is there something besides avenging Father? Besides protecting Lord Ryoma...? You have so much bloodlust. You don't fight our foes as much as slaughter them! What could cause my brother to mercilessly cut people down like a man possessed?


Saizo:
It's nice of you to be concerned. You're a good brother, Kaze. It does seem like vengeance and Lord Ryoma are all I have... But as you say... there might be something else fueling my anger.


Kaze:
As I thought...


Saizo:
But it's nothing you need to worry about. Just forget about it. Good-bye.


Kaze:
Saizo...

Saizo:
Kaze? You're in my way. Could you please move?


Kaze:
No, Brother. I'm here to challenge you to a duel.


Saizo:
Excuse me?


Kaze:
I can't ignore what we spoke of the other day. It's clearly been weighing heavily on your heart, and it must be addressed. I therefore challenge you to single combat, for the knowledge of what troubles you.


Saizo:
This is not a duel you can win. Or do you have a trick up your sleeve?


Kaze:
No. I am aware of its folly. Yet even knowing this, my mind is set. I must know your mind at any cost. This is how far I will go to help you, Brother.


Saizo:
Sheathe your blade. I'll just tell you.


Kaze:
Done. I'm listening...


Saizo:
I once infiltrated Mokushu, believing that they played a part in Father's death. And my suspicions were well founded. I came across evidence proving that the ninja of Mokushu assassinated him. But I failed to avenge myself upon his killer, losing my eye in the process.


Kaze:
Brother... why did you keep this from me for so long?


Saizo:
You were absent from our home village on an errand at the time. And I couldn't tell anyone else that I was wounded at the hand of a Mokushujin.


Kaze:
I don't understand. Why wouldn't you let them know what you found?


Saizo:
I might have, if not for the wound. It was a constant, throbbing reminder that I failed to avenge my father. That I wasn't strong enough. Never again in my life have I felt such shame!


Kaze:
I... I'm sorry, Brother. I didn't mean to reopen this scar on your heart. It was foolish of me to think drawing this out of you would help...


Saizo:
It wasn't a secret I was nursing, Brother. It was my miserable pride. I thought if no one knew the wretched story of it all...


Kaze:
But you did share it. Do you feel better at all to have it out in the open?


Saizo:
...As I said, you are in my way. Please step aside.


Kaze:
O-of course, Brother... *sigh*

A Support

Kaze:
Brother? I wanted to pick up where we left off when we spoke last.


Saizo:
The past is the past, Kaze. Leave those old wounds to mend or fester as they will.


Kaze:
That's not what I meant. I didn't come to prolong your suffering, but to apologize for it.


Saizo:
Why? You had no hand in it.


Kaze:
Not so. For as long as I can remember, you've been bent on avenging our father. Even after everyone else in our clan gave up hope, you carried on... alone. You didn't have your brother's help, either. I'm no better than the rest.


Saizo:
I didn't ask and didn't expect it. You are blameless. The shame is mine.


Kaze:
In some sense, yes. The scar over your eye is a mark of shame, true enough.


Saizo:
...


Kaze:
But it is not a mark of your shame alone. All of us in Igasato have a share of guilt to claim as well...


Saizo:
Kaze, I'm... speechless.


Kaze:
When I said I came to apologize... it was for forcing you to carry this burden alone for so long. But all of us in Igasato will make amends. We vow to be Saizo the Fifth's eye!


Saizo:
You honor me, Brother. I'll gladly take your support in any mission we undertake.
