Shizuru

Intro Shizuru followed in the footsteps of her mother, and many of her bloodline before her, as the guardian of the sacred shrine of the White Crane. The kami is powerful and wise, and the protector of the surrounding valley, villages, and farms. She pursues her duty with honor and determination, never backing down, never being careless or inattentive. Too many times have robbers and thieves already tried to steal from the offerings made to the spirit. You are a wanderer in the realms of Shenzora, a mystical land of honor, skilled fighters, hidden powers, and sinister secrets. In the region of Moryūka, a vibrant jungle, lies the shrine of the White Crane. You have your own duty here, and you have walked a long path to reach it, carrying valuable goods for your offering in your bag, and a spark of hope in your eyes. You are a lost soul, an orphan who never knew your parents. A prophecy of fate spoke to you and showed you the Crane, the kami who might know of your ancestors. You hike down the trail deep into the valley, the crystal-clear water of a river glimmering below, and a white, beautiful pagoda rising between the dense trees, its roof shimmering in the afternoon sun. As you climb the endless stairs of rough stone, you suddenly hear a voice!
