Fortuitously, I’d had the idea for the Moon Viewing as a way of interacting with the Tortoise Clan a mere week before the excellent article Running an Intrigue appeared on Jeanne Kalvar’s excellent L5R-fan website (). I wanted to try…
The yoriki’s investigations took them all over Slow Tide Harbour to meet the people Otomo Hiroshige knew and go to the places he frequented. Some of that was more useful than others and while they missed a lot of potential…
