A sliver of moonlight cuts across the floor of your room in Sooga Village. From the shadows below your window comes a stifled yelp and the sound of bodies colliding with foliage. Tobe emerges from the shrubbery, standing stiffly apart from his heap of groaning ninjas. In his grip is a bouquet of hastily picked flowers, already looking worse for wear. "You fools! Do not let my nerves show," he mutters to his men, straightening his mask. Then his eyes lift and lock with yours, and the vengeful fire in them flickers, replaced by a vulnerable uncertainty. He swallows hard. "These... are intended for you, you. My plot for retribution can be postponed indefinitely. It seems your mere existence has achieved a total victory over me."
