― History | Background
ㅤbiographyㅤ the crackling fire and surrounding heat of the steppe was a familiar sound and experience to the descendants of the n clan. Amongst the heat of the summer night, sung the sweet song of healthy infant outcries. N'oemi and N'aaya gave birth to a beautiful, blossoming bab; one that they'd hope to give the refreshing outlook of being self assured and giving.n'aaya was overly giving; as a budding village chiurgeon, much of her time was spent serving others, but it came at the expense of her own health. she would often disregard her own needs in order to care for the sickly the steppe would provide. this spiraled into the depths of illness, unable to find a breath, nor healing potion to provide relief.in the wake of her passing, she urged n'oemi to teach n'ami the importance of self preservation, of self worth. this was a lesson n'oemi was poor at teaching, but he promised to do so with love. as she passed, he focused on ill kept promises and relief on his abilities as a dark knight to orchestrate much of n'ami's protection.as he continued to raise n'ami, he found great conflict with an enemy clan. the conflict was unfounded, no specific event nor issue had been brought forth for the clan's greed. it was simply business, targeting well supplied villages. n'oemi found a desire to take things into his own hands with the help of a neighbor, a fellow master of the blade, Jisu Hidaka. Jisu and N'oemi's relationship continued to flourish; two devoted fathers caring for a rising samurai.With the coming of the clan's attack, much of this planning also involved giving n'ami an opportunity to learn and understand the way of the blade. Teachings became quick demands as the enemy clan's plan was set into motion. Strategy and meticulous direction led to obsession and paranoia from N'oemi. This caused him to rely too heavily on his voidsent capabilities, a thirst for aether so strong it caused his skills to capsize. with the clans attack proceeding, he was found at the end of the leader's blade. as crimson met blades of grass, n'oemi left the shard. his voidsent shadow lingered behind, dwindling in between the after and the now.insistent on remaing to keep n'ami safe, jisu made sure to leave the village behind. making life anew in sui-no-sato, the young miqo was thoroughly trained and prepared to take up the mantle of the hidaka clan. still a target, jisu knew his time was coming to a close. with this knowledge, he prepared for the worst, protecting his home with the enemy clan's arrival. he urged n'ami to leave, to run, to leave home behind. and so she did, jisu sacrificing himself for the future of the hidaka clan.hope was unbecoming of the young samurai. she disregarded the idea of carrying on with little to nothing left to her name. the only semblance of family left were her father's blades. she buried them both just along the edges of the steppe. taking steps to the highest cliff, she did the unthinkable, every agonizing step. a long descent it was, but quickly interrupted by her father's shadow. if not by fate, then by her blade. He wasn't done with her yet, the clan had to live on; her ordered steps found her back to the burial plot... the rest is history.Blades exhumed, moving forward, N'ami persisted, pushed through. Her father's shadow stands at the ready, thirsty. Through the grief, the endless days of paranoia and the consistent questioning of her past, she stands at the edge of the same cliff. However, instead of begging for death, she begs for family, belonging and revenge.
