Legend of the 5 Rings
Wedding at Kyotei Castle
About the adventure
"When inauspicious signs threaten to derail a crucial wedding between the Crane and Phoenix Clans, it falls to a group of young samurai to choose whether to see the match through or call it off—resulting in great loss of face for the Crane and Phoenix Clans. Certainly, not all of the guests are here to congratulate the honored couple.

In Wedding at Kyotei Castle, the PCs must choose whether to defend or disrupt the marriage between Tsume Takashi and Shiba Isuyo, which would seal a strategic alliance between the Crane and Phoenix clans. Over the course of four scenes, the PCs witness the stakes of the conflict in the Kintani, the Golden Valley, including the cost the peasants must bear while samurai squabble over the land. No sooner do the PCs arrive at Kyotei Castle than they discover that the castle shrine has been blighted by death, and the wedding ceremony must be moved to a local shrine on the outskirts of the castle.
As they investigate whether the cause of the ill omen is supernatural or mundane, they stumble across a conspiracy to install the lost heir of a Lion Clan vassal family as daimyō of the castle. But will the PCs attempt to collaborate with the conspirators or thwart them? Their choices will lead them to the local shrine or the walls of Kyotei Castle, where battles for the heart of the daimyō and the valley itself will be waged.
