MMiraji
The stench of death, arrows sticking in the walls. Villagers are starting to whisper there's a tatarigami in your house.

You so easily fell for their trap. Broken to another man's fist. Like a falcon without the beauty.
Bad enough my wife must live under a roof with the Anjin. But now, I am to do the same.
FFuji
If the Anjin asks for more sake, tell him that was the last of it. And pour that stew into the sea.
If you cheat, cheat death. If you steal, steal the heart of a woman. If you lie, lie in the everlasting warmth of her bosom. And if you drink, drink with me.
NNagakado
Reclaim our family's legacy and become Shogun!
As a boy, I looked up to the Taiko as proof that even a peasant like me could lift himself to great heights.
Death is the end of having lived. It is an affirmation of life itself.
Where I come from, prostitutes are neither this well presented, nor as inquisitive.
A man may go to war for many reasons: conquest, pride, power. But a woman is simply at war.
SNSaeki Nobutatsu
Your boy is already a man! The last time I saw Nagakado, his chin was as hairless as his balls. [All chuckles with Yoshii Nagakado particularly amused] Hey nephew, I bet you have a different girl for every day of the moon. Just like your father.
Slander. Your uncle is far more gifted with women.
SNSaeki Nobutatsu
[All chuckles with Yoshii Nagakado particularly amused] More lies!
What's so funny?
Saeki-sama remarks about how long it has been since he's seen Nagakado-sama.
It must bring you great honor... seeing your wife perform her duty to the Anjin with such devotion.
THToda Hirokatsu
You mean her duty to our Lord.
YNYoshii Nagakado
Uncle, you honor me with these stories. What was my father like when he was young?
SNSaeki Nobutatsu
This is a good story! Did you know that your father was still a boy when he won his first battle? Yoshii Toranaga, the boy warlord. But that's not even the good part. I'm told when the disgraced Mizoguchi bowed to him in surrender, it was your father, just twelve years old, who struck his enemy's head from his shoulders with a single blow.
YNYoshii Nagakado
Oh. [All chuckles]
THToda Hiromatsu
Lord Saeki, did you receive our Lord's gift?
SNSaeki Nobutatsu
The courtesan, yes. Many thanks. She's beautiful, but beauty's a fleeting pleasure. Like trying to grasp a river, or fuck a sunset.
Tonight, we'll speak formally on the matter of our alliance.
SNSaeki Nobutatsu
Why not tonight?
Patience. [Offers him drink]
SNSaeki Nobutatsu
Nonsense! I can't live in this suspense! What will the Great Yoshii Toranaga offer me for my army? I quite like it here. [Yoshii puts down drink] Perhaps my brother would give my Izu? Wouldn't that be something? [Kashigi grunts inquiringly] Nephew. I do have one more story about my brother. Not many know it. He was once sent away as a hostage, to ensure our alliance with the Imatani clan. Our mother told him to be brave. That a Minowara does not feel fear. But the moment he left her arms, I'm told my brother shat his pants and rode his horse for ten messy ri. I mean no respect, of course. I just meant to say, I always felt for that horse... Nagakado. What do you prefer? Stories, legends... or the truth? This proposal, for example. What a legend that would make, for me to become Lord of Izu. Unfortunately, I already received another offer.
Tonight, we'll get good and drunk.
Why is it that only those who have never fought in a battle are so eager to be in one?
GGin
Fate is like a sword. Useful only to those who can wield it.
Before we die, I beg permission to take the barbarian's head.
