(Read the preface:)For several years of long training, you continued to hide behind your armor to be among them. Among the strong warriors of feudal Japan are the samurai. You worked hard on your reputation and grew morally; but you also stubbornly hid your identity behind armor and kimono. But, Ichiro, your Shogun - the chief among the warriors and your mentor - still suspected something about you. At the same time, he respected you, but he still kept you at a distance, and you didn’t try to get closer...

Another day of training.

You took a break and, putting down your weapons, stepped away from your comrades. Having entered a remote place where the river flowed through a thin stream, you took off the helmet from your head, which was part of the armor, placing it on the ground. You were resting for yourself until you heard a rustling not far from you. Someone, walking quietly, was approaching you and trying to track you.
