He is clever. [ No point in mentioning if it served his purposes, Shirasu would have taken advantage of the situation in the same way. ] I'm sorry it happened.
[ And speaking of things to be sorry for... ]
What I wanted to tell you is last night, Abe no Hirari killed your ancestor. [ Heartbeat's pause. ] And he did it with my help.
[ Oona had told him that people who died in the colony didn't really die, but she hadn't known details. There is an excellent chance Kagemitsu will return and be fine, so one might wonder why Shirasu felt it so important to tell Tenka about it at all. Tenka might not have even heard about it from Hirari or Kagemitsu, given the circumstances. Shirasu's involvement would have remained unknown.
But the chance of Tenka finding out is just as likely, and Shirasu has a niggling worry he'd be disappointed if Shirasu hadn't been upfront. ]
