Matsu Kaitokura was the leader of a Lion defending force of a strongpoint on the gates of the recently seized Crane stronghold of Kyūden Kakita. When his forces were defeated by the Crane, he requested to be redeemed by seppuku, with Doji Kuwanan, whom he had trained together during Kuwanan's time with the Lion, as his second. Kuwanan returned Matsu Kaitokura's daishō and death poem to his family. [1]
A night storm rages
I would weather its fury But the wind blinds me Though not to the bitter truth I am now lost in the rain - Death poem of Matsu Kaitokura
