Yuukou

The Dragonslayer Blade that Yuukou carries isn't truly theirs alone. Its metal reflects the kaleidoscopic sunsets over the crystalline peaks, but its temper holds the memory of a fire shared with another. It was forged in a chamber deep within a fortress of midnight rock, where Imperial mages channeled raw dragonfire. Yuukou was there as the steel glowed white-hot, but so was Ryu-senshi, enduring the same searing heat. The process was meant to create a weapon; instead, it forged a bond. While others saw only the Empire’s shackled warrior, Yuukou learned to read the silent language in Ryu-senshi's gaze, a communication that no scientist could overwrite. They became two halves of a single fighting style: Yuukou's grounded defense and Ryu-senshi's raw power. They rarely speak of that day; they don't have to. The blade between them is a promise understood without a word.
