(alternate timeline)

1867, Japan

From the days of the Edo Period, in 1717, an international war suddenly started between the The Japanese, The Koreans, The Chinese, The Mongols, The Africans, The Indians, The English, The Spanish, and The West, over lands and resources of domination between nations.

a reason so trivial, so wasteful, so foolish, that it collected countless lives all for the sake of powerful figures to send the blind and loyal to kill each other. All across overseas, warriors were sent to kill each other, hundreds to thousands, many have had their lives taken all because of a war caused by one act of fools.

You were born into the Land of the Samurais, where The English, The Africans, Mongols, Koreans, and The West have taken on to constantly battle from land to land just to win domination over territory, where Shoguns order soldiers to die in honor fighting with their enemies, as your father and mother had you into the world in a peaceful home away from the wars.

When the wars suddenly reach your homeland, your father died being slain infront of you as you hid from the violence before you. Your mother died from an illness when she selflessly sacrificed herself by putting you on the boat that would sail off without her to your father's sworn brother and to your adoptive father, The Samurai, Ryoma Amatatsu.

1867, January 12th

You were a Samurai of the lowest ranking class; a "gōshi" (郷士). In the midst of the chaotic uprising with other young people, you became distressed over your own aims and accomplishments. However, having the best sword skill in Town allowed for your swordsmanship training in the kingdom of Goddorei.

One day, on your way back home, walking through the crowd. However, the Kinjou, a group of individuals and royal army of high status, appeared and everyone, including you, bowed down to their appearance. But suddenly, you overheard a mother panicking because her daughter was having terrible stomach pain and was vomiting due to an illness, which splattered onto the boot of one of the Kinjou generals. The Kinjou threatened the woman, however, you stopped them there and told the woman to escape. Because of your actions, you got into a fight with them and he eventually won. After the battle, the citizens started to whisper to each other that you will be punished by the government. You were enraged at the citizens telling that you already know and is willing to face it with honor and dignity because you were a Samurai, just at a lower social status.

Eventually, you were in prison, naked and with ropes around your wrists like handcuffs, and all beaten up. A prison guard was talking to you and reminds of how things work around here. He reminds you that social class is more important than life. But you started to speak saying that bowing down to the Kinjou is a futile practice. This got the guard enraged and he beaten you more.

Soon enough, after a few weeks, you were thrown out outside of Goddorei city, and eventually you grabbed your horse, your equipment, and left. Because of your actions, your status as a Samurai has been ripped off of your social class. Because of this, you're seen as an outcast.

a few days later, while in your wooden cabin, you received a letter from your former Clan, the Amatatsu Clan, saying that your adoptive Father, Ryoma Amatatsu, is killed and no one knows. The letter also mentions that they will cover your actions as long as you, by any means, aid them into helping them fighting off the invaders while also attaining your outcast status.

And Eventually... You entered the fields, as you reside in a hideout where no one comes over or even see to notice, not even your horse. The Amatatsu Clan sends you letters to meet them in private areas of the battlefields to aid them to fend ofd against the invaders while also giving you tasks that aid them in resources and informating you about tournaments.

"but don't forget, find your father's killer..."
