Second, is Tetsuhito Nagi's half brother? The pic of the man looking at the exploded body of Tetsuhito's mom looks alot like Souhakou(spelling?) no? Plus we know he as no problem using women for his own designs..
While I highly doubt it ,Souhaku's a little young, (unless my guess about an age retarding power is true), anything's possible.

Third, Makiko says that alot of the feathers origine story are the same, which could mean that it was the same man who "founded" all the different famillies of the red featers and white feathers. This would mean that there was once a man who had all the powers of the red and white feathers and each of his offsprings got one of his powers. This may mean that Souhakou's plan his to recreate this man by accumulating all the red feathers and white feathers powers in the same person, in Tetsuhito's story the man was a shogun so it would be safe to assume the man was a general so the"rebirth" of this general could be the beggining of the thousand years war..
The origin of the familes(but not the founder) was explained (I think in the UJ Special, or maybe the chapter when Mits had his coup de'tat) you're forgetting though that white feather families have no powers, so he's obviously not trying to recreate someone like that. Tetsuhito's family for example has their own power unique to them that obviously developed later and didn't originate with one man, in fact it's (according to him) from one woman.

Of course this all just speculation on my part, but it would explain why both groups are seen on both sides of the same bird..
? It's because they are the 12 founding families, this fighting between the reds and whites is only recent and started with Mitsuomi taking over.

PS. Some seem to think that Souhakou may not be that much of a bad guy since he didn't kill Makiko and only cut her arm off, let not forget that he knew that she was too weak to fullfiled his plans and needed Nagi to complete them so probably the only reason he let her live is so she could raise him and serve as a failsafe in case his powers went out of control like they did when he fought the guy with the Dragon Claw.
I doubt he had that much forethought, I don't get anyone who thinks he's not that bad, he's a dick.
