Under the code of Bushido, loyalty to one's lord was more important than loyalty to family, religion, or even the emperor. If a samurai's lord was in danger, he would follow him. if a samurai's lord was in danger he would follow him. An old story relates a conversation between two samurai whose lord, Yoriyoshi, is losing a battle. "The general is surrounded by rebels," the first samurai reported."Only five or six men are with him: it is hard to see how he can get away." The second samurai replied " For thirty years, now I have been in Yoriyoshi's service. If he must die, I intend to share his fate and go with him to the underworld." - "A tale of Mutsu"
