What is known
S44Champion of the Lion Clan, and Akodo Akihito's uncle. Married, and therefore not a match for Altansarnai.
S48Champion of the Lion, and much younger than she expected — early twenties, measured, precise, courtly, quiet-voiced in armour. A monk before his elder brother's death recalled him to lead the family; one of the youngest ever taken into the Akodo War College and undefeated in his first year of command. He had Shinjo Harunobu conveyed under safe conduct to the Castle of the Swift Sword two weeks ago, unasked, on the Lady Kitsu's plea. He will accept any peace that satisfies the honour of everyone concerned, and told Setsuna the challenge may make her reputation.
