	Miyamoto Musashi
		The famed swordsman Miyamoto Musashi was born Shinmen Takezo in Harima Province and may have fought at Sekigahara under the Ukita as a common soldier.
		He wrote that he engaged in sixty duels without suffering defeat once, and was noted in this regard for his skill at handling two swords at once.
		Following his duel with Sasaki, he seems to have focused his energies on perfecting his style of swordsmanship, spending much time in travel and reflection - thus epitomizing the much-beloved image of the brooding wanderer samurai.

		The great rock cavern known as the "Dragon's Mouth," Province of Bizen, and a peasant hurrying along against the storm by the edge of the river under trees which bend before the gale.
