I agreed to Nobunaga’s idea about marrying off children to the other clans to form an alliance without bloodshed. But instead of the children that I’ve been raising, he promised to adopt children of the right age to marry off into those clans. Morally, I don’t agree with this but I have no choice. Even before, to be historically accurate, Nobunaga did marry off his children to the other clans to form an alliance and also to solidify his power over the other daimyos.

Recently, I haven’t been doing anything in particular. The days seemed to last longer and truthfully, I’ve become bored. Nobunaga is always busy working on his goals and there’s nothing for me to do yet.

Oichi has been visiting me occasionally. I’ve been having a lot of fun spending time with her but whenever she’s not here, I’m back to being bored and doing nothing.

Shards of Time Shards of Time: Plans Against Mino
During the past couple of days, I noticed that Nobunaga has been getting increasingly busy. Sometimes he doesn't even return to the Tenshu to sleep. I worry about his health when he's like this but it's really difficult to convince him to stop overworking himself. Also, I've been too distracted with my own fun that it completely slipped my mind about the upcoming events. This is around the time when Mino will fall.I ran down to the room where Nobunaga held his meeting with his vassals. I plan to tell him about my adopted brother's son's plans. When I got there, Nobunaga and the others were already there. as if Nobunaga knew that I was coming, he patted the empty seat next to him. I made my way over to him and I sat down on the spot he had saved for me. The war council is about to begin."Have we gathered enough information about the situation in Mino?" Nobunaga asked. Masamune stood up and lowered his head at Nobunaga before he spoke."The curren

The preparations for the plan against the current daimyo of Mino has begun. Nobunaga asked me not to interfere and just let his men do their work. He also promised me that there will be no bloodshed and he will try not to resort to violence when the plan doesn't go accordingly. I thanked him for his consideration although I would have been fine with it even if he wanted to retaliate against the daimyo of Mino. Nobunaga's vassals were very capable men so I didn't really need to do much. I just had to sit around and wait until everything was ready.
Shards of Time Shards of Time: Gifu Castle
When we took back Mino, Nobunaga had instructed Hideyoshi to rebuild the castle. In my memory, I remember clearly how the Gifu castle looked like. I was lucky enough to get a chance to visit the said castle back in my time. Who would've thought that I would be able to see the Gifu Castle when it was first restored."Would you like to visit the castle?" Nobunaga asked me. I quickly agreed and accepted his offer. I would definitely want to see it after all this time. Nobunaga and I traveled to Mino where the Gifu Castle was. Hideyoshi did a good job restoring the castle and now it's almost complete. The men who were under the previous daimyo had deflected and pledged their allegiance to the Oda forces. Nobunaga stationed them at the Gifu Castle as guards and as a reserve army."We're nearing the castle." Nobunaga told me. We were riding a horse when I saw the castle in the distance. I got excited when I had my first glimpse of Gifu Castle. It was magnificent. I
