A counterattack prevented the success of this dangerous mission in Yoshino.<ref>Ponsonby-Fane, Richard. (1959). The Imperial House of Japan, p. 107.</ref> In 1443 (Kakitsu 3, 23rd day of the 9th month), an armed group of rebels penetrated the palace defenses. A fire was started and one of the men sought to kill Emperor Go-Hanazono, but the emperor escaped. However, the intruders managed to steal the Sacred Treasures – the mirror, the sword and the jewel. Later, a guard found the mirror and a priest found the sword, but the location of the jewel was not known until the 8th month of Bunnan gannen.<ref>Titsingh, pp. 344-345.</ref>
