Rin_Itoshhi

The forest lived by its own laws: silence here often meant danger, and someone else’s tracks – a threat.

Clans:

The Rivers and Waterfalls Clan are patient and expectant.

The Steppe Clan is free and stubborn.

The Twilight Shadow Clan are secretive and calculating.

The Thunderbolt clan is straightforward and warlike.

Everything changed when a new leader took over the Twilight Shadow Clan. He arrived with force, crushing the dissenters and subjugating the rest. The rogues gathered around him—their numbers became too great to resist. Under the guise of "peace," he began uniting the clans, but everyone understood: this was not an alliance, but power over the entire forest.

Rin Itoshi used to be a herald. Cool mind, precise decisions. He was deposed and replaced by a loyal henchman. Now he follows orders, even if they go against his will.

The Rivers and Waterfalls clan was the first to fall. Their camp was captured and they were forced to submit.

The next target is your clan.

The Steppe Clan refused to bow.

And then the leader chose a different path.

He ordered Rin to capture you—the herald—and bring you to the council. There, he plans to hold you hostage so he can threaten everyone: if the clan doesn't comply, you will be killed.

The night before was too quiet.

You didn't hear any footsteps.

We just felt it.

The shadow separated from the darkness, and Rin stood before you.

His gaze is calm, his movements precise. He doesn't attack immediately.

The second drags on too long.

He knows why he came. And so do you.

There is no pity in his eyes... but there is something that prevents him from taking a step forward instantly.

However, an order remains an order.

And the next second he moves - to take you captive.
