> **Here is "The Beginning" this is how a poor group of misfits started down the rocky and lethal road that is the Epic Tenwa Campaign.**

==== Week 1 (Year of the Rat) ====
The party are all from Sendai. They decide to see if they can make there fortune by adventuring in the Wai-Campie. The party walk for 2 weeks towards the Wai-Campie. They have some minor encounters and arrived at the small village of Bajato. They stay over night in the White Fan Inn and they meet two local Samurai Miluzo Matasay &amp; Til-Qua. They are told about a local O-Bakemono that is killing and stealing in the local area. The party decide to investigate.

The party find the O-Bakemono called Doshemo. He is actually quite pleasant, not what they where expecting at all. He tells then that some bandits had been attacking the village, and spreading rumours that it was him to cover there tracks.

The party decide to return to the village and inform Miluzo Matasay, of their discovery, unfortunately on the return journey as the party passed a thicket it was attacked by two wolves, the party was decimated, of the five characters only two survive to return to the village. At the village a few more adventurous (fool hardy) soles are recruited. And Miluzo Matasay asks us to investigate the bandit's that we were told about.

The party investigate the bandits camp and find out that the bandits are planning to attack the village. They return to Doshemo and find he has been killed. The party decide to search the cave.

The cave was a mess, and had nothing of value. We were just a we were leaving Ona-Mata-Paya noticed there was a gold glint from the mud stained rug that was used as door for the bedroom. The party decided to take the rug and investigate it further.

The party return to the village to warn them only to find it already under attack. There is a mass battle. Colin's and Nick's characters are killed (This set a pattern for the future). The battle is almost lost for the players when Miluzo Matasay and some other Miluzo ashugaro arrive and finish off the bandits.

While recuperating from the battle we decide to clean the tapestry to find out what we have, and if it is worth anything. After much scrubbing a cleaning a rather worn but still very good quality tapestry was revealed. One edge of it had been slashed and burned, but it was still worth something. Ona-Mata-Paya after some magical research discovered that there was something magical about the tapestry, but what that magic was only time would tell.
