The other Roju bowed, and then scurried to the halls where Akuji was last seen. When he had arrived, the Roju spotted a group of Hattamotos and Rojus talking with several others.

When he did this, the group gasped, frowned, and shook their head in disappointment. The group left the area and could be heard whispering to the other blood dragons in the hall.
