Moto Rumiko was formerly Matsu Rumiko, and was married to the Khan Moto Chagatai.
Married[]
Rumiko married the Khan Moto Chagatai. [1] Their youngest son was Moto Tadasu, who would become Shireikan of the Khol. [2]
Gozoku[]
In 1166 Chagatai went to Toshi Ranbo with his wife Rumiko and formed an alliance with Kaneka to destroy the Gozoku. [1]
Enlightenment[]
Born of the Matsu, Moto Rumiko had been forced into a political marriage. Hers would have been just one of many such marriages, save that her betrothed was none other than the great Khan of the Unicorn, Moto Chagatai. Freed from a life of rigid tradition, Rumiko discovered the wild freedom of self-indulgence and the glory of the open plains. [3]
Winter Court - 1168[]
While her husband was striking her former Clan in the Khan's Defiance, Rumiko came to Winter Court at Kyuden Otomo in the winter 1168-1169. Moto Shikenji, a messenger recently arrived, confessed he had killed Bayushi Moyotoshi, in vengeance for his cousin's death Moto Ogedei. Ide Jiao informed that the Imperial Chancellor Bayushi Kaukatsu told him that Moyotoshi had not been who he claimed to be. She ordered Shikenji to commit seppuku. [4]
Wounded[]
At the end of the Winter Court in 1169, the Lost ambassador to the Empire Daigotsu Soetsu tried to escape. In his attempt Rumiko was wounded, and several guards killed. The Scorpion shugenja Soshi Ukyo finally gave his own life to delay Soetsu, stabling him through the eye with a crystal hairpin. This delayed Soetsu just long enough for Soetsu's "watcher", Shosuro Aroru, to catch up and slay him. [5]
Retreated to Safety[]
Chagatai ordered Moto Chen to take Rumiko and their sons and travel to the Shinomen Forest. The Lion were marching to Shiro Moto and all the outcomes expected by the Khan of the ensuing fight were dangerous to any who remained at Shiro Moto. [6]
