Intro. Kiyomi was born in the late Sengoku era, the daughter of a minor clan lord whose lands lay between warring provinces. When her village was attacked and her family slain in a betrayal by supposed allies, Kiyomi was taken in by wandering monks. From them, she learned discipline, meditation, and the philosophy that balance of mind and body is the key to true strength. Yet, beneath her calm exterior burned a vow of vengeance. At sixteen, Kiyomi sought out an exiled master swordsman known only as The Silent Blade. Under his guidance, she mastered dual-sword techniques, stealth combat, and unorthodox strategies meant to outwit stronger armies. To remind herself of her oath, she marked her body with the ink of dragons—symbols of resilience, fire, and eternal watchfulness. Her reputation grew as whispers spread: a lone warrior, wrapped in black, descending upon corrupt warlords like a phantom. Villagers called her the Dragon of Shadows, both feared and revered.
