Kitsuki Kaagi's Journal was a book written in the 12th century by the magistrate Kitsuki Kaagi.

Contents
Edit
The journal was arranged in four chapters, [1] and detailed Kaagi's investigations into ninja [2] and the Lying Darkness, becoming a vessel for the Darkness' power. [3] Even as readers perused its contents, learning of its nature and identity, the Darkness gained a foothold into the reader's mind. [4]
Readers
Edit
Few people were known to have read the book in addition to Kaagi.
- Kitsuki Yasu gave permission to his son and yojimbo, Kitsuki Jusai, to read it. After him, two more Kitsuki were known to have read it. [5]
- One unnamed Bayushi managed to read the book, and subsequently tried to kill the Shosuro Daimyo upon his return to the Scorpion one month after. [6]
Location
Edit
Shortly after the completion of the journal in 1120, [7] Kaagi tasked an eta, [8] supposedly Kaagi's servant and minion of the Shadow Meilekki [9] to bring it back to Shiro Kitsuki and into the care of the Kitsuki Daimyo Kitsuki Yasu. [7] [2]
In the depths of Shiro Mirumoto Yasu constructed a crystal room. On a pedestal encased in crystal it was contained, and the journal was in a wooden box with the inscription "Do not read this!", waiting for the next reader. [10]
Stolen
Edit
As Hitomi began examining Shosuro, in the crystal chamber deep within Kyuden Togashi, agents of the Darkness stole the Journal from Kyuden Kitsuki, substituting a blank duplicate in its stead. [4] The journal was kept in the Chamber of Crystal, together with Shosuro. [11]
