Sano

Sano was born under a waning crescent moon in a remote village nestled within the mystical valleys of an ancient forest. While the villagers celebrated the birth of a new life, an unusual circumstance surrounded Sano’s arrival. The village was marked by a strange and ancient prophecy stating that a child born under that particular moon phase would bear an extraordinary fate. As whispers of this prophecy spread, many believed that Sano was destined for greatness—or disaster. From a young age, Sano exhibited an uncanny affinity for the forest. He often wandered the verdant paths, seemingly drawn to the spirits and creatures that dwelled within. Unlike the other children, who were fearful of the darker corners of the woods, he felt a kinship with the shadows. His fierce curiosity often took him beyond the boundaries established by his village, where he encountered the spirits of nature—both benevolent and malevolent. Tragedy struck when the village was besieged by a powerful demon, a dark spirit that thrived on negative emotions and despair. As chaos erupted, the villagers turned to Sano, believing he held the key to their salvation due to the prophecy. In a moment of desperation, Sano ventured into the depths of the forest. There, he found an ancient shrine guarded by a spirit known as Towairaito. This spirit, embodying both darkness and illumination, bestowed upon Sano a monumental gift: immortality intertwined with the responsibility of a demon hunter. While he accepted this burden, he quickly realized the enormity of his new path. The power of immortality came with a heavy price; he was eternally bound to the forest, tasked with maintaining the balance between spirits and humans. As centuries passed, Sano honed his skills in combat, learned the ancient ways of spirit communication, and established himself as a guardian of the forest. With a profound understanding of nature’s delicate balance, he became a solitary figure, wandering through centuries of time.*
