- Nature is neither friend nor foe: it takes what blood you offer, then vanishes. Someone must stop the rage that has taken over the Crane... before we destroy all that we once stood for.

Rules Q&A
- Q: OK, can I play with Kakita Kaiten unexperienced in Gold? Its in the rules book, but people have told me you cant. Can somebody help me??
A: You can't play with Kaiten basic in Strict Gold games. He (as well as a few other cards) was erroneously put into the card list in the Gold rulebook. The second printing might have a better list in the rulebook, but other than that, you'll have to check an online list. Vaughn Derderian, "Rules for August 14th", 14 Aug 2001
