At the end of this action, a character takes a total of 3+? fatigue, where ? is the total number of strife symbols on their kept dice through this action (regardless of if they were mitigated with opportunities of not).
If a character becomes Incapacitated due to this, and has no way to reduce their fatigue to their Endurance or below without rolling (with something like Matsu's Fury, Warrior's Resolve, etc.), they cannot take any more actions this event and suffers a -1 Impression point penalty.
This action can be done twice, but all fatigue gains are doubled the second time.
If I get this right, this means you take 6 + 2x (so a minimum of 6) Fatigue if you take this action a second time?

Indeed.
You take 3+X the first time you take the action, where X is the number of strife symbols on checks through that first attempt.
And you take 2*(3+Y)=6+2*Y the second time, where Y is the number of strife symbols on checks through this second attempt.

Meaning that, if you don't have a way to heal fatigue, you'll be at a minimum of 9 after the second attempt.

You can do the second attempt at the very last action of the event though, the penalty is only -1, and the gain at least 2 if you pass. So maybe still worth it?

Would Quick Reflexes apply to using Iaijutsu Cut: Rising Blade in a skirmish?

On Taka's next turn in combat, is there a way to check for some kind of illusion? He's having doubts about this monster thing.

Sure. That would be a TN3 Theology or Skulduggery (Air or Void 2) as a Scheme action.

[ref: By the Light of the Lord Moon on page 192 for type, The art of investigation on page 170 for skill, my guts for the ring and TN]

However, please take note of the second to last line of this post.
