> "Miss Shameimaru obviously has very little desire to simply return to serve the full length of her sentence. However, Lord Tenma has agreed that perhaps a different situation could be arranged. He has shown interest in a punishment where she serves one or two more months of her sentence, then works the remainder of the time off in the employ of the Myouren Temple, for the wrongs Miss Shameimari has committed toward Lady Hijiri's name. With this prison time reduction, and a litany of other circumstances, I believe Miss Shameimaru will be prepared to turn herself in once she learns of this."
