Emi was able to narrowly escape an assassination attempt on her life after finding out about a conspiracy against the ruling Kurita family.  Since both her parents and brothers were dead, she had no choice but to seek asylum with the [[Clan Nova Cat|Nova Cats]] who harbored loyalty to her family and not the "puppet" Coordinator [[Yori Kurita]]While hiding within the protection of the Nova Cats, she went on a personal mission to conceive a child to continue the true line of Kurita blood.<ref name=DRc68/>
 
  
Once a child was conceived, and with the backing of both the Nova Cats and [[Katana Tormark]]'s [[Dragon's Fury]], Emi was able to gather a sizable force to rebel against the Dragon ThroneUnfortunately for her, the forces of [[Matsuhari Toranaga]] were stronger and the forces loyal to her were brutally suppressed.<ref name=ER3145/>
