Yasuki Tatsuya

Yasuki Tatsuya was a Yasuki of the Crane Clan at Friendly Traveler Village who turned ronin. Tatsuya was forced out of the Crane because he was embezzling funds from the clan.

Trade Manipulation
In 1168 Hida Benjiro ordered to imprison him to get testimony about the Crane using dishonorable tricks and petty commerce to gain leverage in the town. Kakita Osei instigated bandit attacks so that they could raise the price on rice and increase the guards stationed there, making the total cost of the trade unassuming for the Crab. Tatsuya wrote a scroll confirming the Crane trade manipulation.

Death
Tatsuya was murdered in the Crab prison. The implication of Naoharu could not be probed, and Tatsuya's testimony was dismissed. The Crab were forced to take back their claim of dishonesty.
