I arrived in Kawakami, a harbour town. As I was walking through the town I saw how they looked at me. A woman in armour isn't common, but a woman who wears the symbols of an unknown clan, that is something those townsfolk hadn’t seen before. I walked on the harbour planks looking for a cheap inn that I could afford when I heard someone shout “Thief!”. I instinctively sprung in action from the loud outcry. I looked around scanning the ships, the docks and all the surrounding people when I saw someone running. I swiftly followed him, running after him and bringing the thief to fall after a short chase through the alleys of Kawakami. I took the money he had stolen and let the thief run, but not before I made him swear that he would never do it again. I am not as naive as to believe this will actually stop him, but the gesture counts. When I brought the money back, I learned it was owned by master Toshiro, a blacksmith known for crafting the most intricate and beautiful blades.

He brought me back to his house and allowed me to stay there. As I was leaving he approached me one last time and said that he would build me a custom blade. I thanked him dearly and got back on the road.
