Gaijin
In the middle of Fifth century the Empress abruptly ended the two-year open trade agreement with gaijin people from a distant kingdom, who refused to accept her edict. The initial, terrific attack against the capital Otosan Uchi bolstered the Rokugani, who managed to defeat and drive off the gaijin ships in the Battle of White Stag.

Founding the Tortoise
In a private audience with the Emperor Kasuga was pardoned, and his followers were granted Minor Clan status.

Ancestral Duty
The Tortoise were born as a secret defense against gaijin activities that might imperil the Empire.
