ABALIA KYORAKU-HAYDEN

Abalia found, for once, that she was operating entirely as a noblewoman of the Seireitei. In truth, she had done so very little, considering that her father tended to handle all of these matters. But with everything that was occurring of late, and the simple manner in which recent events had transpired, she thought it might be best if this was the approach she took.

Rather than asking Yugiri Shihoin to meet her as the Vice Captain Commander, she had instead invited her simply as Lady Kyoraku. A meeting between nobles, she knew, would be far more difficult to simply turn down without it being perceived as a slight. She doubted that a slight toward the Kyoraku would, in itself, mean much given the status of the Great Noble Families. With that said, she also knew well that even the smallest of actions could lead to a wide ripple of gossip. It was unlikely that any Shihoin would allow that.

So, Abalia simply sat in wait, under the shade of a lovely gazebo on the Kyoraku estate. A small brook ran through the land next to her, a tree she believe to be peach rustling in the wind. It was quite the picturesque scene. She would be happy to let her daughter grow up in such a place.

Yugiri Shihōin

What a peculiar invitation, Yugiri did not expect it but it was all within the rights of the Vice Captain-Commander to request her presence. Yugiri was after all in some way a member of the Gotei United as unspecified as that role was within it but this wasn't in the capacity as a member of a military organisation and so she attended with a tad of curiousity to her.

"Lady Kyoraku."

She announced herself as unnecessary as it was, she was surely already made aware of her entry and had left her manservants at the door. She rarely ever made use of them but they were a status thing she was taught so they were like decoration more than any help.

"I'm curious as to why a lady of Kyoraku would reach out to extend an invitation to me, it isn't in regards to my interruption of the Fourth Division training exercise. I assure you my intentions were purely to assess the old curriculum my family possessed for the Onmitsukido training during their long period of active duty."

Offering a smile with closed eyes and a small apologetic bow she seemed anything but sincere about crashing that training situation. It wasn't like anyone could really punish her for it anyway when she did nothing wrong, even alerting Realm Enforcement a little period beforehand of her intentions.

ABALIA KYORAKU-HAYDEN

Abalia offered a smile and a bow of her own to Yugiri as she entered. The woman struck her as intelligent, if perhaps a bit confident for her own liking. Still, simple personality profiling was not why she had invited the woman here. There would have been far more worthwhile approaches to that particular aim if she so desired.

"I suppose that it is, in a sense, with regard to that interruption. But I have no intention of disciplinary action. While I would not personally have invited your assessment, it was entirely welcome."

Pouring Yugiri a cup of tea, considering it would be rude not to do so, Abalia looked over the gently rolling hills of the state before continuing.

"The Onmitsukido have been the domain of the Shihoin family for a long while, yes? I am curious as to your own view on this tradition. You obviously care quite deeply about it, but as of late it has been led by others. What would you do, speaking hypothetically, if given authority over it?"

Yugiri Shihōin

Nodding to herself while looking thoughtful at the comment about her assessment. So it was something else then and picking up her tea she was slow to taste it. Mainly because she wanted to hear what the Lady Kyoraku intended to make the matter of this subject and she was glad she did. If she wasn't mentally prepared she might've looked surprised while mid-sip.

"My family has indeed controlled the Onmitsukido for generations, since its beginning actually."

After that little bit she decided to finally taste the tea and look away with a faint smile. How bold of her to bring it up directly to her, but she should've expected no less from her.

"I believe the Onmitsukido should reside within the hands of the one most competent, when Sui-Feng assumed command following Lady Yoruichi's disappearance she was more suitable than Lord Yushiro at the time. As a result she was put in charge but ultimately the many methods of teaching are typically held and practiced by the Shihoin family."

Putting down her tea to hide her hands in her kimono Yugiri continued.

"Now if I were to be made the leader of it? I would reevaluate the teachings, since Lady Yoruichi the standard has dropped considerably I must assume given how former members respond to my little trials. I would improve on the issues however I would also remove it from under Gotei United control. There is a reason it and the Kido Corps were their own organisations before Captain Commander Suika did her changes."

ABALIA KYORAKU-HAYDEN

Ah, now there was the answer that Abalia had very much been expecting. It was something most might not have even thought to focus on, but she certainly did. To remove it from Gotei Control... That would not do.

"I would not disgree that its teachings should be reevaluated. The Onmitsukido as of late has seemed little more than a vanity project for the handful of members who have chosen to give it much attention at all. It does not do it many favors."

Of course, she made no particular attempt that she had more to say on this topic. She took a moment to sip her tea, contemplate her next wording, and then continue on.

"I, however, would think that its separation from the Gotei United would be somewhat unhelpful. After all, as I recall the Shihoin have traditionally held the position of Captain in the Stealth Force, yes? It strikes me that, given the nature of the Stealth Force, this provides more a conflict of interest than anything else. Should the aims of the Onmitsukido and the Gotei no longer align, which of the two take precedent?"

Yugiri Shihōin

Of course you would.

Yugiri's thoughts echo'd silently to herself but she smiled all the same like a well trained act that was seamless from decades of dealing with noble encounters much like this one. She nodded as though she understood the Lady of Kyoraku's concerns.

"The Shihoin have not typically held a captain position within the Gotei no. The family is long lived, well before the Gotei Thirteen formed. Before the group became something more prestigious than a group of cutthroat warbands the Shihoin had little to do with it and even then, the amount of Shihoin that have served within the Gotei Thirteen as a captain or even vice-captain can be counted on one hand."

As if for emphasis she held out four fingers, not explaining if she said there were four in total or it was just a gesture.

"However, the duty of the Onmitsukido was necessary to maintain order within the Seireitei in a more covert manner, Captain Commander Yamamoto's organisation changed to possess a reputation, a good one. For the Gotei Thirteen's reputation to be spoiled by the duties of the Onmitsukido would be troublesome for the government."

She took another sip before becoming more serious.

"If the Onmitsukido and the Gotei United's goals were to stop aligning... an organisation leader in question has failed? Were a hypothetical person to hold the titles of Captain and Executive struggle with a conflict of interest then he has failed in his duty as Executive. The Gotei has either stopped acting within the laws of Soul Society... or he's is using the group for his own personal interests rather than upholding the order of Soul Society."

ABALIA KYORAKU-HAYDEN

Abalia lacked decades of training as Yugiri had been afforded, but simply made up for it with earnest experience. After all, to maintain a facade in this sort of setting was nothing worth speaking about compared to other situations she had been in. Though she had put a response together already, Yugiri's usage of her hand to establish her tone was a bit of condescension Abalia did not much appreciate. If that was the tone being set, she would certainly engage in kind.

"No? I had been under the impression they had taken a more active role in the realm's affairs. My apologies."

The rest of Yugiri's point did interest her, however, and she addressed it without any ulterior motive.

"While I admire the late Captain Commander's efforts to provide the Gotei a better reputation, I should think that a good deal of that effort came primarily as corrective action for the method of its founding. You and I certainly agree that the goals of the Gotei and the Onmitsukido should always align. To that end, it seems unnecessary that they be kept separate. Their disconnection only creates a barrier to communication and cooperation that facilitates very little benefit in return."

Yugiri Shihōin

Yugiri would forgive Abalia's assumption that much of the Shihoin's influence into the affairs would be noticed. If a family that created and held the ancestral seat of the Onmitsukido had a lot of nasty rumours, well they must be lacking in some areas. She hoped Chidori could be suppressed as long as possible but it was unlikely, she did join the Gotei United after all.

"The Gotei's purpose is maitenence of the soul cycle, the Onmitsukido's is the order of the soul society. Ultimately these two have a goal that aligns enough that they work together but remaining as one hinders both of them, the Onmitsukido are not responsible for the soul cycle and the Gotei United remain unchecked without a neutral party... Although I suppose that might've been in the interests of the former captain commander."

Of course as far as Yugiri could assume the woman was quite content with her father possessing total power while she had her little piece of the living realm.

"Allow me to divulge some history, it is to my understanding you're quite young."

She didn't say it like it was condescending that time, the other woman really was something impressive but she has only been a spirit for a short period and Yugiri did not expect her to know all of Soul Society's history or events in one go.

"It involves a member of the Tsunyashiro Branch Family. Tell me. Do you know of the name, Tsunayashiro Tokinada?"

There was so many reasons she had picked that name of all given its relation to Abalia's father and many incidents to come after.

ABALIA KYORAKU-HAYDEN

Abalia found the split between the two organizations rather needless still, but she would not interrupt Yugiri. Regardless of her opinions, that would simply be rude, and that was far from her intent. So she listened, and allowed herself a brief response.

"The Soul Society's order has been suitably maintained without the separation of the Onmitsukido, I should think. While there is value in keeping the Gotei United in check in the event of a tyrant, I should think a truly neutral party would be preferred to one still rooted in the Seireitei."

Left unsaid was Abalia's simple opinion that none of the Great Noble Families could be trusted to maintain any neutral stance. That was, to her, simply self-evident.

"Yes, Lord Kyoraku has told me of the Tsunayashiro, and of Tokinada. I think his opinion toward them is no secret, even if it is not a topic he would speak on often."

Yugiri Shihōin

It seemed a stalemate. Annoyingly but the two of them clearly came from two very different worlds and backgrounds, Abalia was after all from a humble background. The power taken away from aristocracy only worked in her favour similar to how not having to answer to a government suited the nature of a Suika. Responsibilities were below them if Kokoro's father was anything to go off.

"Yes. Tokinada Tsunayashiro, who's actions enabled Captain Aizen to recruit the aid of Captain Tousen. Were it not for the actions of Lord Kyoraku, he would freely have escaped such punishment however that very same man shortly after the conflict with Captain Aizen resolved was found murdered. A fitting end for a terrible man yes? While officially it is unknown just who murdered Tokinada Tsunayashiro, it was ordered by Central 46 after many more things came to light and the Onmitsukido were called in to handle it. The Gotei are balancers, not an executioner nor a government. That begs the question..."

Yugiri focused very hard on her companion like all of her previous statement was pointless compared to this loaded gun, and she was shooting.

"Just how does the Gotei United fund itself presently? You dissolve the power and control of the people, granted many of those people are corrupt but they have money. At my leisure I could request the necessary resources to fund reestablishment of the Onmitsukido."

"So Lady Kyoraku, how is your father from only a moderately sized noble family gathering the resources to maintain the largest military force of the Soul Society? I can believe stockpiles but ultimately there no way you can maintain all these wages, all this equipment necessary and especially not all these repairs given attacks last year and the invasion during the Fourth World War."
