Well

[Ken]

I was coming to ask for an alliance with the Zodiac clan, but I guess I'm too late since the Usachis already have an alliance. Unless you're willing to make an alliance with your ally's enemy

Uhh... oh kay. I`M THANKFUL FOR BEING SO UTTERLY AWESOME BUT PLEASE, WAIT FOR YOUR ROUND! o-O;... *pat pat* If we made an Alliance with the Kyouki, both of you would have gone through the Zodiac and used us as a shield if anything happend.

Ken, i`m afraid we can`t accept such an offer you`re making... It would smash my Clan to ruins. =_=; I am afraid the Usachi won your little race for an Alliance. ^^;

[Ken]

I hold no grudge against the Zodiac Clan for denying the alliance. In fact in the situation of it being the neutral clan it was a smart thing to do.

May your swords stay sharp

The Zodiac Clan thanks thee for understanding the situation. Our short meeting has been a valuable experience.

May your swords stay sharp as well Kiri.
