Kitsu Yui

Lion

What is known

S9Named in a fallen scroll as the Kitsu who saved Matsu Sakura at the Snow Plain, and tied by the same scroll to Shiba Midori's own line. The scroll describes the rare Kitsu working that calls ancestors into a battle, which will not hold without honour behind it.
S14Kitsu Somalia's bodyguard. When a duel was aimed at her commander she answered it in her place and killed Utaku Mangiano with it. This is the Kitsu whose intervention Kitsu Taigen's line still owes a karmic debt for — and Setsuna has now seen her fight.
S15Pulled Morozane out of the snow and collapsed convulsing from the effort, unnoticed. She was on her feet again for the council, and it was she who put the scale of the food loss in front of the generals.
S16Speared and knocked down during the ancestral charge, and badly shaken afterwards by the spirits as much as the wound.
S17Got Somalia out of the snow. The Emperor's heralds arrived at the moment she was working on him and broke her concentration.
S18Her record closes on a verse — "I gave my name and I lost my honor in the snow… Come spring, the world changes again."

Each line is what she took from the session it cites, and nothing else. The Archivist's own account of this person is not reproduced here — it blends what she saw with what she did not.
