The machinations of the Spider against the Destroyers are laid bare as their lord and master confronts his opposite number among the ranks of Kali-Ma’s forces.
Rokugan is facing its first Empire-wide threat since the Divine Empress took the throne. In the south, strange four-armed beings known as the Destroyers have joined with familiar Shadowlands threats to tear down the Great Wall of Kaiu and pour into the breach. The Army of Dark Fire continues to harass the northern clans, bringing deadly new tactics after its previous failure to reach Toshi Ranbo. All over the Empire, tainted air carries the plague, creating mindless zombies who carry the disease to new victims. Already, whole provinces have been put to the torch in an effort to combat the plague, with the loss of the entire Horiuchi family one of the first casualties. At the heart of all of this, Kali-Ma stretches her arms to blot out the Empire.

Each Kotei season brings new excitement and new challenges for the L5R Team. Play groups and Tournament Organizers come and go and every year the Kotei map changes. In the past we have let those changes happen. If we had a hole in the map, because an area lacked an application, we let it go hoping someone would fill it the next year. This year, we are taking a much more active role. While we are excited about the larger than usual number of applications we recieved and applications in new areas we have never before covered, we are concerned about the following four areas that we have not recieved acceptable applications from.
