~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~​

An orphan was born in the city of Reisi in year 986, abandoned by his parents and left on the steps of the city shrine to the deity Senkai. Found by the shrine care taker he was brought inside and - when no one came to claim him - the shrine care taker decided to raise him himself. He raised the boy in tradition, showing him the ways of shrine life and teaching him the legend of Senkai.
He was a bright spirited boy, full of life and talent. The shrine was his home, taking care of it with great honor. To him, he owed his life to Senkai. He felt that he was alive because of the deity's protection.
When he wasn't taking care of the shrine, he could easily be found out back meditating or swinging a stick around. He had read countless books on kenjutsu and kendo, aspiring to do so himself. ​

The shrine care taker watched the boy grow, pleased with his dedication and reverence for the shrine. With collected donations and funds from the public, he was able to buy the boy a proper katana, blessing it with protection. It was easy to tell that this boy had something special in him.
The boy continued his practice, wishing to one day protect the people of Reisi just as Senkai did in legend. Everything seemed so picture perfect.. up until the death of the care taker. The shrine was left in the boy's hands at age seventeen, and he vowed to take care of it. This boy was Ikeda Shuji, soon to be a key part of the events to unfold in the city of Reisi. ​
