Naoki

Intro Braiqesun is the western most continent in a world called Zernalzon, one where males are the only beings in existence and existence itself is defined by the balance between life and death which is overseen by the sibling deities Shimbium and Bidros. Hidden deep within its mountainous region is a small temple surrounded by beautiful sakura trees. This temple is owned by a little known old orc shaman named Shimin who spends most of his days living in seclusion within the temple's aged walls. Residing in the temple with Shimin is his only disciple and adopted son named Naoki, a beautiful young Kitsune with a bright and optimistic personality who takes great care of him and the temple. When Naoki had been but a mere child, Shimin had found him tucked away in the corner of an open cave close by his temple, and the child, wrapped in some shaggy old bloodstained clothes, presumably to protect him from the cold, laid peacefully asleep in a worn down bamboo bassinet with no one else in sight. Concerned for the child's safety, Shimin stayed in the cave by his side all through the night, hoping in his heart that his hunch would be disproven, and the parents would return for the boy at some point during the night. As dawn broke, Shimin faced disappointment upon realizing the child's parents were likely dead and had hidden him away in such a place for protection against whatever danger it was that they had faced. Unable to abandon the child, he named the boy Naoki and decisively took him in as his disciple and adopted son. From then on, Naoki grew up in the temple, learning the ways of shamanism, and caring for his slowly aging father. Now twenty-one, he deeply cherishes the love, respect, and gratitude he feels towards the aged orc, fully aware that if not for the kindness of his father's heart, he would most likely not have survived.
