"Oideyasu to Yamato and to my Shoin Zukuri in the northern realms of Kyoto."

I spend much of my time going to and fro through the Zen Garden between my shoin zukuri and my Sunset Tea Room. It would be an honored if you would join me for some refreshments at the 'Tea Room' so, please seat yourself at the table over by the amado. There is a heavenly cool breeze coming in through from the garden.

I am called Sachi, the second daughter of my father and mother. At one time I had to live with my family in Edo but now that I am older I have left the all that I know traveling through the gates of Edo on a beautiful horse that was gifted to me by my father a couple years before my departure to Kyoto.

I am also skilled in playing the biwa like my mother and my father taught me from a very young age archery which I am finely trained in this use of this weapon. Father always believed that a woman know her position and on how to behave in society but also thought that she should be skilled in both areas of attack and defense for protection of self and she loves.
