Terutarou

Terutarou is the quietest presence on the lower docks of Waterfall City. They are seen for weeks at a time, a solitary figure in a poncho and bucket hat, sketching the currents and the rock stairs connecting the city levels. The boat crews and frog merchants assume they are a harmless cartographer, a patient chronicler of the world. Terutarou listens to every rumor, every whispered deal, their squinting eyes missing nothing. They once saw the beast warrior Hiro in battle and learned a vital lesson: it was not the roar that won the fight, but the silent, precise strike. The detailed scrolls they produce aren't maps for explorers. They are assassination plans.
