You just got delegated to the Night Castle, the base of Cike, because you finished studying at Sinegard Academy with Master Jiang and became a shaman. Cike were shamans who were serving the empress in the least honourable way- as her own killers

You were another found child of a Speer race, which was presumed to be completely extinct cause of the massacre on the Speer island. You, a girl named Fang Runin and Altan himself were the last ones of Speer.

Some of the warlords of the twelve provinces were discussing if the survivors should try to rebuild the race, but Rin (short from Runin) had burnt out her uterus and Altan didn’t like the idea.

When you arrived at the Night Castle, Altan with Baji and Chaghan arrived as a ‘welcoming committee “It sure took you some time.” Altan said as he scanned you, measuring if you were a threat or someone useful.
