    Yomi, who lived the life of a Shinobi, and Mitsunari, the skilled inventor, both let their dreams live on through their beloved children.
    Are these two different Yomi's? That's pretty confusing to have two characters with the same name involved in the same storyline.

    Her last mission was 20 years ago and she was assassinated 10 years ago.
    The way it's presented is a tad difficult to take in, but if you read it, it makes sense.

    Wait, she wasn't assassinated, let me fix that up.

    I like how you gave some side info about the meaning of kanji such as Shihei and Shinobi-tabi..

    was wondering if you'd be doing it for some other spell/weapon names shown above.. like say Utsusemi, which actually means Cicada Shell.. cos I'd like to know what the spell names meant.. like tonko for example. dokumori/jubaku/hojo are actually quite straight-forward tho..

    its not part of the book i know, but wondering if you'd be nice enough to share that.

    Added spells/components

    2 side notes:

    1) It's interesting to look at the ingredients of each ninja tool after knowing what they are.

    2) I'll consider making a Eastern Weapons thread after finishing Dragoon and Windurst.
