Burden of the Emerald Empire (A Legend of the Five Rings Tale)

[gman391]

Looks like the ways of the Tao are enough to overcome the fearsome death gods.
Time will tell if Katsuko's skill will let her overcome the son of a grand master.

Alright, here comes the semi finals. Will the mystery of the gaijin magic be enough for the calm Unicorn to defeat the volcanic Dragon? Will the young Lioness be able to overcome her lord and mentor? Stay tuned to these exciting matches.

SEMI FINAL ROUND

[gman391]

It would seem that in the end raw power was no match for the esoteric mastery of the Horiuchi techniques. Horiuchi Shen-Zhe is now in the final bracket for the Jade Championship.
There he'll face the might of the ancestors in the form of one of the Kitsu.

 

[Ephemeral_Dreamer]

Gonna roll for Kitsu Ineko
