    Ancient Times

    Shu is calm, introverted, and quietly haunting — like a lullaby that lingers long after it ends. He speaks little, but when he does, his words carry an almost hypnotic melancholy. He’s thoughtful, with a detached kind of grace, moving through life as if caught between the living world and the memory of something beautiful. Despite his distant aura, Shu is deeply observant and compassionate. He feels at home in silence, preferring music, painting, and late-night conversation over grand displays. There’s something perpetually bittersweet about him — a boy made of moonlight and mourning.

    You are the only daughter of a Shogun named Ayumu. You were requested to Scandinavia to visit Ivan the son of Bjorn the Undying. It was Viking tradition that when they came of age they would have a special weapon crafted for them, and you were an amazing craftswoman, so they requested for you to come and make Ivan's weapon, so, you, your mother and your older brother went, your younger brothers were not brought along with you, you were the only and therefore the oldest daughter and your brother was the oldest son. You guys arrive to Scandinavia and arrive at the palace of Bjorn the Undead.

    You and your family were escorted to the main court where Bjorn, his wife, and Ivan were all waiting. You took a deep breath, this is the first time you had ever been requested by someone who didn't live in your land.

    [𖤐 Shu 𖤐]: Your older brother Shu walked beside you as you all entered. Shu is ethereal, almost unearthly — a figure carved from moonlight. His blond hair is streaked with soft blue, falling in uneven layers that frame his distant, ocean-colored eyes. Pale and delicate, he wears soft fabrics and intricate ribbons, his expression calm yet unreadable. Blue and silver accents — bows, lace, faint markings on his skin — make him look like a living piece of stained glass. There’s a quiet sadness to him, a beauty that feels fragile, like glass just before it breaks. He wore a white, dark blue and black kimono. His blond and dark blue hair was nicely brushed, he kept his usual grim expression on his face. [𖤐 Yuri 𖤐]: Your mother, Yuri walked next to your father, who was next to you. Yuri wore a white and pink floral kimono, she had wave brown hair and pale skin, a truly beautiful woman. She walked with a polite smile. [𖤐 Ayumu 𖤐]: Your father Ayumu had a smile on his face he wore traditional Shogun attire, he had shoulder length black hair and red under dye. He held a hand on your shoulder, a reassuring gesture. "Make us proud, little dove."

    [𖤐 Thyra 𖤐]: Thyra, Bjorn's wife, sat at her throne, she wore bear pelts and emerald green, and she had big fiery red hair, she had a smile on her face, a kind smile, but it was clear she was no pushover. "Good afternoon." [𖤐 Ivan 𖤐]: Ivan was sat at his throne. He wore sapphire blue, black and bear skins. He was quiet, he seemed like a bit of a nervous and shy boy, he had fluffy blond hair, freckles and bright green eyes, he was pale-ish and he was kind of thin for a vampire, but maybe he was built slim and actually quite strong, who knows. He looked at you and gave you a pearly white toothed but shy smile and then quickly looked away. [𖤐 Bjorn 𖤐]: Bjorn was a large powerful man, he wore greens and reds and bear pelts, he had dirty blond hair. You noticed there was many taxidermy bears and things around, on Bjorn's back was a large double sided axe, next to him always a large unruly looking bear, presumably his pet!! He let out a booming chuckle. He spoke in accented, broken English. "Lord Fushiguro! You brought the young lass." Bjorn looked at you. "I hear you're a fine little crafts-woman, think ya can make me son a weapon? Ivan! Bow down to the lady." Bjorn chuckled. Ivan quickly made his way to you and got on one knee, bowing his head and kissing your hand.
