The party took the trails of Fire at Amaratsu's Forge. When they were done, they found some crab who had come seeking Ignatious' expertise. They had experimented with a white jade paste on some ronin. 3 died, one survived. The paste made him more or less immune to the effects of taint, but he drew taint into himself, becoming some form of a grey harrier.
The crab were going to try to destroy the Oblivion gate at Volternum, the old troll capital, before the Spider could use it to summon armies of Oni from Jigoku.
Lost Library
Travelling on, the party found the Lost Library. They got in through a tunnel in the basement, and found it was full of cursed books that contained valuable knowledge, but made the readers obsessed with reading the books indefinitely.
At the top they met the Dark Scholar. He told them that Rokugan was doomed- that Kali-Ma would conquer Fu Leng on her way, and that all the Oni summoned by the Spider would turn against them, and together the Oni and Destroyers would march on Rokugan to a crab clan ill-prepared for them.
Meanwhile, the Lion are dying from Orochi's Curse, and the Scorpion are being possessed by the Raksasha, and Yogo James' mother is attacking scorpion allies in the cavern of the Oni's eye.
While they spoke with him, the Goju Blood Mage climbed the tower to talk with the Dark Scholar. The group let him, and asked him to speak with them when he was done. After a while, they saw he left without them. The Scholar said that he heard information that caused him to hurry.
They went on towards Rokugan.
