Hanako family

Hanako family was a vassal family in service to the Seppun family of the Imperial Families.

Founding
Seppun Hanako was one of the most virtuous woman in the Seppun's lineage, who even remained loyal to Hantei XVI when her family devised his murder. The young courtier survived the Steel Chrysanthemum's rule, but she witnessed countless atrocities during his reign. When the young and inexperienced Hantei XVII ascended to the throne, Hanako eagerly agreed to assist him, and the Emperor named her his Imperial Chancellor, and her wrtings known as the Articles of Heaven, became the new basis for Rokugani law. She was granted her own family.

Duty
The Hanako were magistrates and representatives of the Seppun in the court.
