Ōigawa Castle - Ono Michifusa 1561. Fall. “That’s not all. I have another important thing to tell you all.” The words that came out of the lord’s lips suppressed the relaxed atmosphere surrounding us. For Ōigawa, located along the coast, the news of progression of the naval force’s development that would allow us to control the seas was a worthy cause for celebration. However, the lord had achieved an even greater success in Okazaki. But he didn’t show it in his face, perhaps out…- 50.9 K • Ongoing
Ōigawa Castle - Isshiki Masataka 1561. Fall. After returning to the castle, the first thing I had to do was to introduce Ohisa-sama to everyone. I told Tokimune and Michifusa to gather everyone in the great hall. Of course, by ‘everyone’ it included Mother and her maids too. After making sure that everyone was there, I led Ohisa-sama into the great hall, sat in my usual spot, and had her seated beside me. A slight commotion occurred, but it died down pretty quickly. “Sorry to call…- 50.9 K • Ongoing
Up until now, I—Joro, a.k.a Kisaragi Amatsuyu—had only experienced tragedy whenever I sat on a bench. At one time, I was forced to give romantic advice to my childhood friend and the student council president. Then at another time, a stalker confessed her love to me. At another time, I had to give romantic advice to my best friend. And at another time, a certain member of the newspaper club accused me of having a three-way relationship. But this time, the tragedy I had to experience thanks to the…- 200.0 K • Ongoing
- Kiyosu Castle - Oda Nobunaga 1561. Fall. “I’m back, Kichō.” “Welcome home.” After meeting Isshiki Masataka, I took my horse and went back to Kiyosu with Monkey. The surprised faces the people of the castle made as I passed through were amusing to look at. “How was your journey? How was that Isshiki-sama?” “He was an interesting guy. His retainer was also remarkable.” “For you to praise him as such, my lord, he must be a very fine gentleman.” Kichō laughed…

- Ōigawa Port - Hisahime 1561. Fall. When I disembarked from the ship—led by my husband—I was greeted by the most magnificent port town I had ever seen. Apparently, the first policy my husband implemented after becoming the Isshiki clan’s head was to focus on improving and expanding the Ōigawa Port, a port that already existed in the Isshiki clan’s territory. I had already seen it from the cabin’s small window, but even though it was still so early in the morning, the port was already…

- Atsumi Bay - Isshiki Masataka Fall. When I returned to the cabin, I found one of the retainers looking exhausted. He was Isshiki Masaaki. As his name suggested, he was a member of the branch clan, the younger brother of Masatomo. Unlike Masatomo, he liked to fight more than dealing with internal affairs, so he came here to accompany me as one of my guards. “Are you okay, Masaaki?” “F-forgive me for showing you such a pathetic sight of me, my lord…” His pale face grew even…

- Okazaki Castle Town - Isshiki Masataka 1561. Fall. When we first arrived, we didn’t cause any commotion. But now, when we were about to leave, we had to proceed slowly amidst the festive cheering of the townspeople. Someone must’ve seen the cart filled with dowry and the impressive-looking palanquin—both weren’t there when we first arrived—and realized that they were all prepared for Ohisa-sama’s wedding procession. Actually, Ohisa-sama herself wanted to ride on a horseback, but…

- Okazaki Castle - Isshiki Masataka 1561. Fall. “Sorry to keep you waiting. The lord is ready. Let us guide you to where he is.” It was a while after Nobunaga’s sudden visit that Tadatsugu finally arrived. He really kept us waiting for such a long time, but then again, it was thanks to that I managed to speak with Nobunaga. With such thoughts in mind, I, together with Michifusa, followed him to a room. I thought he’d bring us to the audience hall, but he didn’t. “I’ve brought…

- Okazaki Castle - Isshiki Masataka 1561. Fall. Okazaki Castle was, for lack of better words, magnificent. That was my first impression of it when I looked up at it from the castle town. It was way larger than Ōigawa Castle. Tadatsugu guided me to a room inside the castle. He said he’d come to fetch me after Motoyasu was ready. “This is a magnificent castle.” “Yes, it is. This castle was originally named ‘Ryutozan’, but after Kiyoyasu-dono, Motoyasu’s grandfather, seized it…
