Ikoma Teidei

Ikoma Teidei was a young and promising samurai whose daimyo was executed by an assassin. Teidei became a ronin and spent the next seven years hunting the man responsible. In the end he tracked him down to Mura sano Eiyu ni Suru, where he killed the assassin, and then committed seppuku to join his master. A shrine now stands in the village in his memory. (3E p. 292)
