58. The Rumour Stops Here
A persistent rumour confronts Arjava: that Hyakuten Inamoto forced him to sign a legal document. He categorically denies it, preferring to end the conflict with peace over retaliation.
A rumour persists that Hyakuten Inamoto obtained a legal injunction forcing Arjava to sign a document silencing him after his contested 2017 statement*. Arjava firmly denies it – no paper was ever signed.
Guided by The Art of War, he favours resolution over retaliation: open the door and avoid casualties. Even when revenge beckons, choose peace – closing chapters cleanly.
