[Touken Ranbu] The Lord's Secret

Feelings given so freely deserve to be treasured. A new Saniwa takes over a broken Honmaru where half the sword boys have lost their memories and the other half have fallen into darkness. The former admiral of an interstellar empire begins a mentally exhausting life at the Honmaru. "Kill me, and you'll get a sword of your own!" says one self-destructive Kashuu. "I don't want you! You're not my princess!" says one petulant Hotarumaru. "Why! Can't you look only at me?" asks one Tsurumaru whose confession was rejected. And a whole crowd of corrupted sword boys: "I won't listen, I won't listen! I don't want to, I don't want to!!!" The Saniwa says that even when commanding three armies, they were never this exhausted! Reading guide: 1. An old-school Touken Ranbu fic, filling in the gaps in an old story. 2. I might revise it. I don't think my writing was good enough back then, and some readers said it was hard to understand. 3. This is absolutely a self-indulgent fic, the kind with a love-rival showdown. Theme:
