House of False Hope

The region was alleged to be home to a training facility, the House of False Hope, for the most dishonourable of Scorpion assassins, but no one has ever found it if such a place does in fact exist. The Scorpion scoff and ask how something can be hidden in the plains.

Destroyer War
The region was overrun by Kali-Ma's invading forces during the Destroyer War. A small group of merchant patrons of the Crane Clan, Mantis Clan and Unicorn Clan were willing to jeopardise Scorpion holdings if there was profit in for them. These machinations were brought to the attention of Doji Domotai by a letter from Doji Asami wherein she explained why she committed jigai. The Champion of the Crane Clan sent her husband, Doji Kusari to deal with the issue. While he spared the lives of the merchant patrons, he truly punished them by involving Yoritomo Yashinko, assistent to the Imperial Treasurer and by involving the Emerald Magistrate of whom Bayushi Saito got involved.
