Description
Darkness is always deepest furthest from the light.
Although assassins and criminals are dangerous, troublesome and underhanded, great leaders must sometimes use such people for the greater good. Victors get to dictate histories to scribes and scholars, and the enemy killed in darkness is just as dead as one killed honourably in battle. Equally useful to a clever warlord are the informal business practices of such men: wealth is wealth, after all, and all wrongdoing melts away in the warm glow of gold. Although the killers were not strictly "ninja" at the time of the Gempei War, all sides employed assassins to remove troublesome enemies. Politics, as the Taira demonstrated to the Minamoto, was not so much about defeating your opponents as having them all killed as quickly as possible. Any and all weapons, including human ones, were therefore deployed and used.
