[edit] Ryosei's Gempukku
In 1124, when Ryosei was 16, she underwent her gempukku. Ryosei was tasked by her father to locate and retrieve the Ancestral Sword of the Fox Clan. Ryosei found the sword hidden under the mountains near Otosan Uchi, and brought it back to the Grove of Inari in Kitsune Mori where her father was waiting. Her father, an old man, took the blade and unravelled the silk of the hilt to reveal a Black Scroll concealed within. Gohei read the scroll, becoming the Walking Horror of Fu Leng to gain immortality. Gohei attempted to sacrifice Ryosei to complete the ritual. Ryosei was saved by a kitsune spirit which sacrificed its own life to buy Ryosei enough time to escape.[1]
