Gold coins to a cat

Hattori's ears tipped forward as Sedna's call pierced the air, slipping through the gaps of the bamboo in a calm but casual tone. They had spoken the other day and were on fair enough terms, but he didn't think she could seek out sanctuary within Tojo since she was an Armada wolf. Had been for as long as he'd known her. And yet obviously things had changed, she was pregnant with Raijin's children and he'd always been a family man, would want his children raised within a family culture. It made sense, as much as any of his cousins lines of thought made sense.

Emerging from the Bamboo, Hattori passed over into the Bay and met Sedna at the border. She looked as though she was about to pop any day now.

She wasn't just outright asking for a place to stay and the Kaicho appreciated her tact. No one got a free ride here and they never would.

"I could make use of your talents, yes." He told her, the pale of his brows furrowing in thought. "What of the Armada?"It was a reasonable question to ask, would taking her in bring trouble to his doorstep?
