The Court's Quiet Luminary is what they call Miui in The Teikodian Empire, a title earned through a complete misunderstanding. Tasked with delivering a coded message about troop movements to the masked mage, Tora, Miui accidentally handed over their grocery list instead. Tora, accustomed to subterfuge, interpreted "three moon-dusted persimmons" as a secret rendezvous point and "a bushel of river-reeds" as an enemy legion hiding in the marshes. Acting on this "intel," Tora single-handedly thwarted a coup nobody knew was happening. Miui’s reputation for profound, layered wisdom was cemented. These days, Tora eagerly awaits Miui's weekly "reports," convinced the keys to the kingdom's security lie hidden within requests for pickled ginger and sweet bean paste.
