Tokuturu's Laugh, She Was a Fox
Togateru found his daughter on the moor, returned her home and then murdered her because he thought she was a fox. He said that all this could be over if she would confess to being a fox. Confess and transform. Do it now. The parents heard the screams from the darkness of the closet. They emerged to see tokuturu on his knees in shock next to the burned body of their daughter. Several burly men from town tackled him, bound him and dragged him out into the street. It was almost morning when toku toru appeared before the lord of the region. His story has never been told again.
