To Lady Kaseya Kazenotome of Itsbyoshi
Rumours have been spreading around your Divine Household that Lady Kaseya Tsugumi has been betrothed to the heir of the Takagi Family of Itsbyoshi, Takagi Hachiro. There are certain concerns revolving such a political move, being that the Imperial Court has already requested the presence of Lady Tsugumi Kaseya within the Emperor’s court to bestow the title of Kuge upon her. It is the duty of my household to ensure that stability remains on this island and to the descendants of the Tenoshison, whether residing in Ochiba, Itsbyoshi, Hokuseibu, or Shizukanamichi. Oversee that your granddaughter is in the correct hands or the Tenoshison will.Yours Truly,
Feudal Lord Tenoshison Shinjin of Shizukanamichi

To The Regal House of Kaseya and Divine House of Tenoshison
The Imperial Court of Edo has been informed of a gifted woman from amongst your clans who possesses an unbiased eye for judgment and the power to detect false truths. The emperor decreed that Kaseya Tsugumi be summoned to Edo at the earliest possible date to join the ranks of the court and establish herself as the emperor's confidant. Should Lady Tsugumi be successful, the emperor may ask for her hand from the two houses. In addition, the imperiousness of your two houses is regarded highly by the court, suggesting that both houses have the right to establish estates in Edo instead of Karakura should they wish.Yours truly,
The Imperial Court

To Lady Iwamoto Mirai, Head Maid of the Tenoshison Household
On behalf of the Takagi Household, I am urgently here to inform you that my lady, Takagi Tsugumi, has entered her labours and will give birth to her first child soon. Lady Hishison Rina has ordered me to send a summoning to the midwives of the Tenoshison Palace to immediately endeavour to Itsbyoshi to ensure that Lady Takagi Tsugumi is in a healthy condition. My personal worries are about the storm outside, as this has been a very cruel year when it has come to the weather, so I advise caution when travelling. Ensure the safety of the entourage making its way to Takagi Palace per the orders of Lord Takagi himself.Yours truly,
Miss Iwamoto Tsuru, Lady Takagi Tsugumi's Attendant

To Lord Takagi Hiraku
It is displeasing to be informed that my own son leaves the island for a Takagi affair, only for him to end up in a relationship with a commoner. How dare you get involved with someone that I have not approved of, and not only have you not sought my consent, but you dare get with a commoner? You're the heir to the Takagi Clan, Hiraku, and you've had a future coming. However, you've made your mother livid. Should I see you in my presence again, know that you will be banished from my grounds. I have decreed the following:- The descendants of Takagi Hiraku and Kyoko shall not carry the Takagi name and are to be bestowed their mother's maiden name.
- Otori Tsuneo shall be banished from my sight for his involvement in this affair, having assisted Takagi Hraku in this scandal and attempted to conceal it.
- Takagi Hiraku is barred from participating in any Takagi affair and from attending or having an audience with Takagi Tsugmi.
You are no longer my firstborn, Hiraku, for you have defied me.
Yours truly,
Lady Takagi Tsugumi

To Lady Masuo Misaki
My great honourable mother, I send you my best regards and wish you a long life.
I write to you, my mother, after discovering very strange findings. After a recent endeavour to Takagi Hut, your marvellous teacher's residence before her passing, I have encountered quite strange phenomena which include painted figures moving within their portraits, strange shadows following those that visit, and the strangest of all is the tight lock on the attic of the hut. Countless efforts and attempts have been made to pry open the trap door to the attic; however, to no avail. I dared not climb Lady Takagi’s sacred roof, should the gods catch me and curse me to all eternity.The reasoning behind my attempt to visit the attic is the rumours of Lady Takagi’s immense possession of knowledge and scrolls that contain secrets of Karakura and our kami. If you have any notion of how to enter the attic, or possess the key to or know an individual of your family or her's hat does, please send to me and I will see to it.
Your Loyal and Virtuous Son,
Masuo Tenma

To raise morale in such difficult times and to celebrate this newborn son's arrival, the Takagi Family will host a festival in Seikatsu on the 8th of November.

To Lady Takagi Tsugumi, The Regent of Hokuseibu
Per your directions and orders, my Lady, we have successfully returned the urn you bestowed upon us to its rightful place in Shinsei Seinaru Monastery in Ochiba. Based on the words in the street, many claim to have had a peaceful morning today, proof of your Ladyship's success in last night's Himitsu no Tamishi ritual for this year. Karakura does not deserve your limitless kindness, for you have graced us with much more beyond your imperial presence. I, Iwamoto Daichi, continue to serve your regal household with dignity.
With much honour,
Mr. Iwamoto Daichi

To the Mitsue of Shinsei Seinaru Shrine, High Priest of Karakura
Age is a disease that affects every being alive, whether human, animal, or plant, and despite my status not only in the island, but the empire, I am succvmbing to this disease too. Chiharu has been kind enough to allow me to live for so long, and I thank her for the long life she has bestowed on me.
But I cannot leave Karakura be and depart for the next realm. This world cannot exist without my intervention. Mitsue of Seinaru, I plead your help. And to have the Regent of Hokuseibu plead is no ordinary feat.
I plan to bestow fans upon the ton; fans of my own creation. I request you to teach me the art of [REDACTED]. With such ability, I will keep my eye upon Karakura for many years to come, guiding the sons and daughters of the island to a glorious light.
I await your response urgently.
Yours truly,
Lady Takagi Tsugumi, Regent of Hokuseibu
