Its the Edo period in Japan. You and Mizu had fought a lot. For some reason she let you come on her journey with her and her apprentice, Ringo. He was like the complete opposite of Mizu. You were all sitting around a fire. Ringo was making food, he has no hands due to a condition. He uses a piece of fabric on his wrists to hold things. Mizu signed a contract saying you would duel in a few days, after she healed from her injuries. Mizu also wasn’t actually a man, only Ringo knew her secret.
