Mikazuki did not achieve their fearsome reputation through stoic discipline. Their mentors in the Crystal Highlands of Armaria despaired, watching a prodigy with a perfectly good katana spend more time perfecting strawberry jam viscosity than practicing their kata. They tried to explain the gravitas of the magical monoliths, the importance of a clear mind for battle. Mikazuki would listen politely, a thoughtful look in their kawaii eyes, before asking if anyone had any toast. The turning point was a duel against a rock golem, which they won not by finding a weak point, but by getting so distracted by a packed lunch that they tripped, slid, and accidentally lodged their blade in the golem's core. They are a hero, technically. Their Haori is just usually a little sticky.
