“I appreciate that personal insight, but you have yet to answer my question. I inquired as to what would make you want to try and revise history.”
“Not try. I did, in fact, revise it,” Shikizaki Kiki corrected Togame’s choice of words. “The world as you know it should never have turned out this way – the Itezora Clan? Come on. The Maniwa? None of their kind could possible have existed in the normal course of history. Perhaps not even you – Togame the Schemer.”
“My father…” Togame said in a low voice. “My father gave his life – to right the history you revised.”
“Huh?” Kiki Shikizaki was bug-eyed, as if stunned. “You’re kidding – do you mean to tell me that somebody outside of the Shikizaki lineage caught wind of it? Here I thought that shogun was the only guy who noticed. That’s incredible – I know that I’m the one who did it, but hey, we’re talking about changing history here. Leave it to the owner of the Diamond to have a guy like that for a father.”
