[The Citadel is huge, so it's a good thing they have all the time in the world to dick around.

--Well, no, they don't. But the point is, it's a free day. There will be absolutely no work done at all. Unless you want to or something. If you do, you're pretty weird.

The dojo is always open for sparring and practice. If there's any sparring errand you've slacked on, now's the chance to make up! The horse stables are also full of activity, whether the horses are being tended to or rode around-- be careful not to let them trample the fields, though, which is full of rice sprouts and budding cabbage. The lake in front of the saniwa(s)' room has tiny frogs jumping about, and you could catch them in the palm of your hand.

The kitchen is full of food, if you're volunteering to make lunch or have decided that meal time cannot possibly come any later and you simply must prepare something before you die from starvation. While there has been a considerable effort made to make the Citadel look as homely as possible to the swords which come from Japan's past, there's speckles of technology here and there.

The TV room is a good example, with a huge screen sitting on top of a few console systems. Don't break them, you'll only be getting this luxury once. Take turns and play nice. The swords may also find themselves tending the fields with water sprinklers and hoses instead of watering cans, for instance, or heating up some leftover pie in the fridge instead of making another one from scratch since there's technology to preserve food well over a week. The armory and smithy are definitely a little bit more modern than they'd be back in the past, though much is still made by hand-- nothing beats the fine work of a master. Perhaps you'll have a few new friends today, or you want to try creating a cute little soldier spirits to die for you accompany you in battle. Make sure they enter the orb completely, or else it'll turn brown and crack.

Or perhaps you're one of the unlucky swords still stuck in the repair room, sword body still being re-smelted and fixed. Hope the saniwa is good at making you all shiny. If you want to skip all that waiting, perhaps you can try to use a helper token... but they're all in the saniwa's room! Guess you've got to use that Camouflage stat...

But if you truly cannot bear with staying in the Citadel, the time device the saniwa(s) have isn't locked away. You can go on sorties or expeditions to fill your time with something productive.

Just a warning: don't change the past. You won't succeed.

...You could always try, though.]

[ Horikawa admires Mitsutada for working so hard. Although there's a fair number of early birds around, the heavy sleepers are still more prominent. (With is fine, considering sleep builds energy for the troops!) Anyway, with regards to a large citadel such as theirs, it's definitely better to have more helping hands in the kitchen. That's why he appreciates the taller sword's head-start with breakfast.

He walks closer to check the current progress. There's a lot already, but it's not quite enough for the whole army yet... Of course, that's cue for him to slide in. There's still a lot more to be done! So he shows himself to Mitsutada now, smiling brightly to express his admiration properly. It's so early, yet he's already carrying himself with his usual formal poise. Oh, and he's wearing an apron, indicating that he's going to be lending a hand. ]


You truly are amazing, Mitsutada-san!

[ Truth to be told, he had expected Horikawa to come down sooner or latter. The two of them were both inclined towards domestic work - luckily, because none of the other larger swords were as willing - so they often helped each other out with the tasks. It did surprise him a little that the wakizashi hadn't been awake when he got out of bed, but he merely took it as a cue that he should start. ]

Ah, you're complimenting me too much. [ Does this make him cooler now? He certainly hopes so. ] Morning, Horikawa-kun. Go get something to eat before we start.

[ He's not going to let the kid work on an empty stomach, okay. ]
