People

Shiba Mori was the yojimbo, and later husband to Shiba Sayoko.

Husband[]

Mori had originally been assigned as a yojimbo to Sayoko during her early years as a Phoenix Diplomat. Their relationship had been strictly professional, but over time love blossomed and eventually Sayoko was able to convince her daimyo to allow the two to marry, for true love. For years Sayoko was a devoted and loving wife, and children followed.[1]

War of Fire and Thunder[]

When the War of Fire and Thunder began, Sayoko felt Mori was a man past a warrior's prime and that he should leave the fight to younger men. Mori could not resist the call to battle, and distinguished himself on the battlefield with command of a legion. During the Battle of the Broken Wave a Tsuruchi arrow struck down Mori, finding a gap in his armor. Sayoko was devestated not only by her loss, but also that the Phoenix then surrendered to the Mantis.[1]

Sayoko's Vendetta[]

Sayoko immediately used her political connections to become the Phoenix Ambassador to Kyuden Kumiko, and took every opportunity to undermine the Mantis Clan.[1]
