Kyodai met with Hashirama's wife on occasion. Uzumaki Mito. Uzumaki. Ahh, the real reason Kyodai had been tasked with taking down Shiroshio. The Uzumaki were allies with the Senju. Kyodai was uncomfortable around her. Mito had figured that Shiroshio had fallen due to outside sources. She only hadn't known it was due to Kyodai. Granted, Mito would've only been ten. She had lived on the island too. The Uzumaki declined the invitation to join Konoha. Kyodai was grateful. She felt very, very guilty. Talking with Mito made her uneasy. Alas, Kyodai couldn't run away. Retreat was not an option. Kyodai knew the truth, and she wasn't about to spill it. Kyodai thinks Mito found out when one day she served cold food in Konoha's first winter. Her eyes were not accusatory. They only held knowledge. Mito knew Kyodai was only a year older than her. She had brought down Shiroshio, but she had not come up with the idea. Mito was no naïve lass. War was not a pretty thing. Kyodai was relieved. Their sons were good friends. As long as she never had to hunch over just to stare into Mito's eyes again, Kyodai knew she could endure her guilt.
