Zashi walks over to the woman, bows and says, "Thank you ma'am. If you don't mind my asking, what started all of this? All this feuding must have had some kind of trigger." Zashi listens intently to what the woman has to say and adds, "What do you think it'll take to get things sorted out?"

"Fighting should always be done in an honorable manner. There was no honor there."
Enzuna notes with some happiness the bookstore. Its good that some people were at least able to stick around even in such violent areas.
"How has the fued affected the nonrelated people such as yourself?"

"Well, the feud has existed for centuries, but the most recent escalation in hostility only started a few months ago. For many years, the best swordsman of the both clans would learn both from the teachers within their own house and at the Dojo of the Saitou Clan, a third party with no loyalty to either feuding clans. Three months ago however, the daughter of the head of the Saitou Clan married the oldest son of the head of the Akadama Clan. With its new influence in the Saitou Dojo the Akadama Clan tried to bar the Kuroa family from training at the Saitou Dojo. The Kuroa reacted poorly to this and began trying to kick Akadama Clan members out of the Saitou Dojo as well. The west half of town has three dojo run by the Saitou Clan, and each day different clan members are able to train at different dojo based on what area of west town is controlled by which faction at the moment. The Saitou clan wants to stay neutral, as it benefits from both clans learning from it, but the current state is much worse then one side or the other being barred from entry. Fights occur in the streets constantly, and students that are from neither clan that wish to learn are also barred from entry. I don't really know how this is going to end, but someone needs to talk to all of the leaders and get this sorted out."

Heating all of this has Zashi perplexed. He always thought of marriage to be a thing to celebrate, not something to fought over. Her ponders for a moment, looks to his cohort and says, "Well, it would seem that we should spiral to each clan leader. Enzuna, where do you think we should head first?"

"It appears the neutral party broke the peace by shifting sides. Perhaps words with them would be best.
Balance is important in all things, and sometimes the one who disrupts the balance is the key to bringing it back."
Enzuna speaks surprisingly seriously compared to his normal simple attitude.

"Their is wisdom in your words young man." The old woman describes the locations of all three dojo along with the house where the head of the clan resides. "He may not grant you an audience unless one of the teachers from the dojo vouch for you so you may wish to speak with them first, but it is of course up to you."

"Hmm... well a talk with one of the teachers will definitely help. Enzuna, interested in visiting a Dojo? Sounds like quite an adventure, no? We might learn something new, too!" Zashi, surprisingly shows his excitement. He hasn't seen or been to a Dojo since he left Liacara. A small taste of home would be refreshing.

Enzuna nods agreeably.
"Yes, gladly. It has been a long time since I sparred. If possible, I would like to stop by the center quickly, I did not get the chance to do it earlier."
<Just need to heal up Enzuna really, he took a decent beating from that Koffing. It can be timeskipped straight to the Dojo if it costs anything to get healed, Enzuna will pay the price =P
Sorry for the delay! I don't want to hold y'all up too much, so if need be you can shoot me a PM on skype Micah, since I can't check this forum as reliably since it kicks out my phone.>

"Ah, a trip to the Pokémon Center would be most beneficial. So, first to the Center then to the Dojo, let's be on our way then."

The center does not treat people unless they are close to dying. They heal pokemon for free though. Their is a mart across the street from the center however that sells bandages and sparkling water which is a human healing item. I'm going to assume you buy whatever it is that you want to buy to heal yourself and then the two of you continue to the closest dojo to the pokemon center.
As you approach the dojo you see the swordsman of clan Akadama guarding this particular dojo. Their are three of them in front of the door and they don't look like they are going to get out of your way without some sort of persuasion.

Sighing about what may come, Zashi walks up to the men, bows and says, "Hello, may I ask who instructs here?" He attempts to be as polite as possible, trying to avoid conflict, "We would like to learn the art of this Dojo and humbly speak to the instructor if possible."

<Potions heal humans as well in PTU actually =P>
"Greetings, we are travelers looking at the various dojo's. I have been tasked by Koga to see practitioners of various martial arts, and was hoping I could meet the leader of this one."
Enzuna had no idea what mentioning Koga's name to these people would do, but it was worth a shot at least. He adjusts his glasses and smiles disarmingly at the tough looking men.

Two of the three men start a bit at the mention of Koga but quickly return to their previous ugly looking expressions. The third maintains the same distainful expression before saying "We won't be letting anyone who is not a member of house Akadama into this Dojo. You had better turn around and walk away unless you want to start something. If you want in here then you can take it up with our boss and beg his permission to join our clan."

Noticing the flinch from the Akadama men at the mere mention of the word, "Koga," Zashi waits to hear what Enzuna has to say next before piping up, himself.

"Ah? Perhaps that would be best. May we speak to your boss? Perhaps we could come to some agreement."
Well, they probably thought he was secretly a ninja at this point, but that was good enough for him. And if worst comes to worst, he could see a new fighting style.
