Effects: Creates a calming environment that makes violent behavior difficult
Activation: She must play the flute reasonably well (no squawks) to attune it



Weakness
Peace First


Kimi Maeda is a good person and believes the Kitsune were meant to do good things. She would much rather broker peace than war, to the point that she has deliberately left her combat skills underdeveloped so that the elders keep her off the front lines and in courtier settings where she belongs.

Likelihood of Corruption


Low.

She genuinely has a good heart and attitude and is not easily deceived.
