As a condition of the surrender, the lives were spared of very close relatives of Yoshikage including his infant son and designated heir (Aiōmaru) and cherished consort (Koshōshō). Some of Yoshikage’s attendants did not martyr themselves and survived the battle. Efforts were made by Kageaki to negotiate for their lives and future status but the dependents of Yoshikage were executed by the Oda army while in transit.
