Tarnished

Tezuka watches his newest warrior and wonders about him. Drama, I-3

Kaga would be a good place to see Echizen's real mettle. Kunimitsu's mouth tightened.

Echizen's form was beautiful. Deadly.

And wrong.

question: does anyone really know that Nanjiro has a legitimate kid out there? I'm sure there are plenty of bastards rumored to be his. Maybe even a couple of would bes trying to claim him, but....

I expect it's well known locally and less known the further away you get from whatever town Nanjirou settled in. Communications between domains was... problematic at this point in time. But I rather think the domain lord would have kept an eye on any warrior that famous settling down in one of his towns, so I expect the higher-ups of the garrison were made aware of who Ryouma is.
