Kirimaru

Kurama's cedars are good for climbing. From up here you can see everything. Even who's standing behind whom.

• SojoboThat is my mountain's tree. Come down.
  KirimaruYou first, Great Tengu. Take off the mask and I will come down.
• KurobaThe Koga brat left footprints on the master's tree, caw!!
  KirimaruI was barefoot, though?

First time I fought the Iga fox, we were ten, I think. She beat me and cried anyway. Makes me wonder who she cries in front of these days.

• OrinShe cried because I didn't give her supper, not because of you.
  KirimaruSenior, you could've let that one stay buried.
• Kamono DogenNineteen nights until the new moon. Save the old stories for after, if you would.
  KirimaruMy lord counts even memories in days.

Saw the Iga fox by the Kibune stream. She was never the type to let someone else hold her hand.

• SojoboThe water was cold. I held her hands in it, that is all.
  KirimaruA thousand-year-old tengu knows how to do that?
• KurobaMaster's hands are always cold!! ...Aren't they? Not lately?
