Shosuro Tobane was a wealthy samurai of the [Scorpion Clan]] with a quick mind and faster tongue. He was hand-picked to serve as hatamoto to his daimyo. [1]
Marriage[]
Tobane married the gentle, and intelligent Suzume Misaki, famed as a maiden who talked at every opportunity, another long-winded storytellers of the Sparrow Clan. She talked always and without pause, completely incapable of silence. After several years Tobane weariness turned to anger, until he split his wife's mouth from ear to ear with a tanto. Misaki was buried by the servants without being noticed by the rest of the world, who believed she had fallen ill and passed away in the winter. [1]
Death[]
An influential man, Tobane was granted to host a winter court within his own halls. During the event he was fond of a beautiful woman, even though a silk mask obscured her face. Both moved to the garden, and Tobane was found late in the snow, frozen to death. Some said the woman was Misaki's ghost, who had exacted vengeance upon her murderer. [1]
