Konnichiwa, Miku-san.

Recently, i have made a proposition of a new Clan to The Shogun; hopefully, this new path will be approved, and i would be glad to see you among the ranks of Clan Ando. But, as i have mentioned before, i am not going to force anything on you, this is going to be your choice. I will give you the exact proposition i have handed over to The Shogun.

Clan Ando.

Clan Daimyo: Formally - Akemi "Homura" Ando, actually - no appointed Daimyo, power is focused in the hands of The Council.

While Asai Clan is considered a direct successor of all Augus assets and achievements - Clan Ando is Augus' successor by spirit, as it is being found by Homura, whom by the time happened to be Sakurai Augus closest ally - and her advisor on even the most sensitive matters, while also standing in command of Augus flagship, Kirishima, and reviewing the operations on Sendai.

The 'disappearance' of Daimyo Augus left Homura stranded, she simply vanished into shadows, once again reconsidering her plans - before taking her next step. Few months later, Akemi Ando gained her audience with The Shogun, where she encouraged the usage of NEMP payloads Sendai should've still had in possession to bolster the Dragon's efforts in Nagano, and moving her own assets there to ensure her initial plan succeeds, and no intrusion will mess up her plans, and she will soon walk into the gardens of Tomioka.
Meanwhile, Homura looked to systematize her efforts, give them a new course of action, and to act more directly.

Clan Ando have became an emphasis of those efforts, rallying the people under the banner of those who seek different view on their Home, and it's future as The Democratic Republic of Kusari.

---

Short-term objectives:

• Gain more supporters, both independent and within the ranks of the Blood Dragons.
  
• Establish the Clan's permanent base of operations, establish the permanent supply contracts for the modular installation.
  
• Establish the Clan's democratic model of society led by The Council.
  

---

Long-term objectives:

• Establish The Democraticy Republic as the new political system of Kusari.
  
• Acquire the samples of new technologies and establish capapibilities of reproducing them within the Clan.
  
• Liberate Sakurai Augus from her misery.

Clan Ando.

Overcoming the limits of imagination,
Shaping a better future beyond their sight.

I hope to meet you soon, Miku-san, as a part of my Clan.

Peace, being the distant dream it is, comes inevitably, and goes hand in hand with justice.
Cursed be the war.
