Yoritomo Mirumachi

Yoritomo Mirumachi was a wealthy dignitary of the Mantis Clan.

Moshi Lands
In 1160 he moved to Kyuden Moshi to visit the Moshi Daimyo Moshi Jukio to ask permission to establish a permanent trading warehouse. Mirumachi was very traditionally minded, and the idea of having women in charge rankled. He committed a serious breach of etiquette while having dinner with Jukio, so a drunk Mirumachi was invited to spend the night at an inn, rather than guesting in the castle.

Death
The next morning Mirumachi was found dead in his room, his face frozen in a grimace of shock and fear. He had been killed by a Scorpion assassin posing as a sake merchant who was to sow discord between the families of the Mantis. Moshi Jukio ordered a thorough investigation, aided by a group of wondering samurai.
