This article, Kaede's Inspection, is a short one-shot featuring some of the history of Kaede Saitou, Rosuto Shiba and Ranmaru Shibata Sr.; with the first as the point-of-view character. Ugh. Royal duties sucked! Why couldn’t the Jōren learn to inspect there own lot? It wasn’t as if she had anything to do with the unit outside times of war which, she just had to point out, they where not even in! Heisekai was peaceful as one could hope. Yet here she was! It was maddeningly unfair. All she wanted to do was enjoy the carnival that was in town but that would be far too unreasonable for a Princess when she had her duty to attend to. To hell with the bloody Jouin and their blasted rules!
