Description: Kaoru accidentally kills a man and she
and Kenshin must deal with the legal and philosophical
consequences of her mistake.
Comments: While clearly written, it wouldn't hurt for
the author to include a couple of sentences of background
on Battosai for those who aren't familiar with the source
material.
Er...
Well, I was writing it primarily for RK fans, and even if you're passingly
familiar with the series, you should know about what\who the Battosai is...
I mean, that's a very large part of what the series is about...
And if it was going to be a really complicated explanation it wouldn't be worth
the effort. However, I have been introduced to a couple of my favourite series
by fanfiction. There's no need to leave out the newbies if they can easily be
brought up to speed.
