- Once a Kitsu, Okura, with black deeds, has driven Nakuso far from his homelands. Now Hitomi has given him a home, a guide, and the means to fight back against the Dark Lion... but at what cost?

Rules Q&A
- Q: Hitomi Nakuso Dragon Clan Shugenja. Tattooed Man. Nakuso will not join the Lion clan. Battle: Bow and destroy Nakuso to destroy one opposing Samurai with an equal or lower Chi.
Bayushi Kachiko Scorpion Clan Seductress. Experienced 3. Unique. Kachiko will only join a Scorpion player. Reaction: Discard a card from your hand when a Battle action is played during a battle Kachiko is in. Cancel the action.
If Nakuso uses his ability, and I use Kachiko's ability to cancel his action, what happens to Nakuso?
A: The cost of Nakusa's ability is bowing and destroying him. [GE p. 39] Costs are not refunded when an action is canceled. [GE p. 45] Nakusa stays dead. Jeff Alexander, "post for 30 May 2003", 3 Jun 2003 - Q: With Gold's new targetting rules, does Hitomi Nakuso's destroying action target himself ?
A: No, via rule 2: "An effect that applies only to its own card does not target." Zen Faulkes, "Rules for 31 July 2001", 1 Aug 2001 - Q: is Nakuso + Crane Tattoo a combo still?
A: Sure. Zen Faulkes, "Rules for 31 July 2001", 1 Aug 2001
