  When [xiaochou.name] strode into your hall, a cluster of starry-eyed servants trailed behind, utterly convinced they followed some legendary warrior. They hung on [xiaochou.name]'s every word, eager for tales of battle.
  
  You gestured for [xiaochou.name] to sit, and soon the talk turned to that freshly snapped Bloodshed Card.
  
  "A warrior ought to relish bloodshed most of all," It mused, while the servants nodded in reverent agreement. "Yet I feel no joy from this butchery. Tell me, [player.name]—who spills the most blood? Who truly rejoices when others die?"

  • op3: Soldiers
  • op4: Commoners
• Case #1:
  • Rite: See Vested Interest
  • Prompt:

    You pointed to the sky above—the meaning was plain.
    
    "Ah... I see. So the high enjoy watching the low kill, and the low in turn take pleasure in seeing those beneath them do the same? Do nobles relish slaughtering common folk?"
    
    [xiaochou.name]'s words left the servants silent. Just as you had only dared to gesture toward the heavens—your servants, too, dared not speak of the rights and wrongs of nobility in your presence.
    
    "Arrange a meeting for me," [xiaochou.name] said. "Let me see these nobles and hear what they have to say."

• Case #2:
  • Rite: See the Unseen Blade
  • Prompt:

    You answered without hesitation—the merchants: they lend coin, scheme, and chase profit without scruple. More merchants and poor folk have likely been driven to ruin by merchants than by famine or war.
    
    "I see. So this is called winning without bloodshed, is it?" [xiaochou.name] nods thoughtfully. "Arrange a meeting for me. Let me meet these merchants. I wish to hear how they speak of slaughter."

• Case #3:
  • Rite: Craft of Killing
  • Prompt:

    Soldiers, of course—especially those battle-hardened ones. How many armors their blades have cleaved through, none could count!
    
    "Well, that is indeed the most straightforward answer," [xiaochou.name] said. "Arrange a meeting for me, [player.name]. Let me see 'my' own kind. I wish to hear how these warriors view slaughter."

• Case #4:
  • Rite: Death is Like Dust
  • Prompt:

    Countless are the savage and starving across the realm who'd kill for a crust of bread. Their hands may be stained with more blood than all the gilded spears of the Sultan's guard.
    
    "Is that so?" [xiaochou.name] frowned. "Arrange a meeting, [player.name]. Let me look these desperate souls in the eye. I'd hear how such people speak of slaughter—provided this cruel world hasn't slain them all yet."
