The Valiant Daidoji Tower is a small keep located just north of the Crane province of Kishou. It is held by ronin whose ancestors were once Crane Clan samurai. Originally, the tower is an outlying Scorpion holding; at some point in the Empire’s history, it is captured by the Crane, but some undefined sin or vice among the samurai here results in their being exiled from the clan. Ever since, the ronin hold the tower, hunt bandits in the surrounding lands, and hope against hope for the day when they can rejoin the Crane Clan – so far, to no avail.
