Welcome, Cousin!

...So who's up for burning the mountain down in the next 8 hours?

What did the Dragon do wrong?

Also sure

[Seppun Akimitsu]

Wrong mountain I believe

They may be employing a euphemism. When one says they are 'chasing the dragon', they do not mean they are literally in pursuit of a member of the Dragon clan.

Although they may.

Many of our kin run quite rapidly.

Our Togashi cousin might convey more to that effect.

[Kitsuki Kindaichi]

A possibility, though one might argue that if one cannot catch their quarry are they truly chasing it, or chasing something else altogether?

[Kitsuki Ketsudan]

It is said that the Heavens direct a person's steps whither they need to go. And it is said, too, that intent matters far less than effect.

There is wisdom in the tension between the two.

[Kaito Maya]

...What?

[Kitsuki Ketsudan]

Shinsei found enlightenment.
He could guide no other to it.

[Kakita Sumire]

Or did he?

Dun dun dunnnnnnn

[Kitsuki Kindaichi]

*Ponders*

Does turning into a turtle to protect his last words count?

[Kitsuki Ketsudan]

Possibly.

But the account of Someisa does come from the Kasuga.

The source of the story must be considered.

[Kaito Maya]

So...bad idea to serve turtle soup?

[Boku]

To my knowledge there has been no tale of Someisa in this reality.

Edit: Though, as with many things, one could possibly have heard of similar apocrypha just without the weight of 'canon' to back it up. Who knows what wild stories have been told about Shinsei through the centuries.
