Looking at his mare Tadakastu smiled.
"We will set out now from this peaceful town to find another place to put our streangth to the test" He then double checked his gear and began to saddle up. Raising his wrist so as to be able to kiss the beads on it he began to set off.
"Goodbye brave warrior" a young woman called out to him. "Thank you for protecting are village from the pirates"
"Yorokonde" The only reply he gave as he left.
