Taro

Background
Taro was a retainer of Okumichi clan.

Appearances
Taro was serving as a monk at Mushindo Monastery. On January 1, 1861, he was assigned to take breakfast to Lord Shigeru.

Abbot Sohaku sent Taro to deliver a message to Okumichi no kami Genji that his presence was required at the monastery.

Taro accompanied Emily Gibson and Hanako on their visit to Cloud of Sparrows Castle. He was suffering a conflict between his loyalty to Genji and his belief that the modernization of Japan had done great damage.

Taro attempted to isolate Emily from Hanako and to kill Emily. He ended up killing Hanako and being killed by Saemon.
