Kazame

The Last Student is what they call Kazame in The Heart of the Forest. They carry a Dragonslayer Blade so immense it should have a story for every scratch, yet Kazame has none to tell. They appeared one dawn near the amber trees, undead flesh beneath a relaxed tee, with demonic eyes that held only a placid confusion. The locals are not afraid; they are intrigued. Kazame asks to be taught the simplest stances, the most basic footwork, struggling like any novice. But sometimes, when a cool breeze rustles the leaves, the greatsword on their back hums a low, mournful tune—a memory of fire and scaled wings that their conscious mind cannot access. Who were they before their death, and what great beast did they slay in the moments before forgetting?
