you up to the huge door. Here they leave you alone. Desperate for
any distraction from the ordeal to come, you admire the camellia blossom
Mariko took from a vase in your quarters and gave to you. The flower is
reassuring. Not everyone here in Osaka is an enemy.|

The maid points to the space in front of the arch. \"There, Sire.\"|

\"She believes Lord Kiyama will honor her.\"|
