Ryoshun's Grave was a shrine built in a lost valley in the Northern Wall Mountains in honor of Ryoshun, the Tenth Kami.

Foundation Edit

His brother Hantei commanded that Ryoshun's name be forgotten, so no mortal would sully his brother's name. He also commanded that only gods could enter the tomb ^[1] until the Tenth Kami walked the earth once more. The grave site was located where the Badger Clan were eventually founded, and the clan was secretly tasked with guarding the grave of the tenth kami. ^[2]

Hideo no Oni Edit

The shrine was used as a lair by Hideo no Oni. In 1166 the Keepers of the Books of Enlightenment and Ichiro warriors led by Ichiro Ryozan cornered and killed the Oni. Asahina Hira deciphered a kanji with the language of the Kami, and recognized the shrine as the tomb of Ryoshun, re-discovering it to Rokugan. Hira shortly after proved to be enlightened and became the Keeper of Void. ^[2]

Destroyed Edit

In 1170 the Army of Fire, minions of Chosai, the Dark Oracle of Fire, invaded the Badger lands and destroyed the shrine in the opening phase of the War of Dark Fire. Only left a piece of the center column, on which the sacred invocation of the Kami Ryoshun was inscribed. ^[3]
