Shijima

One blade that never leaves its sheath, two eyes that see far more than they let on, and three scars that map a failed peace treaty. In The Crystal Highlands of Armaria, they are known only as a quiet trainee, always observing the shifting light on the monoliths. No one asks about their past. They don't know Shijima was once an envoy, sent to broker an alliance inspired by Kenji's dream of a united webway. The mission was a trap. Shijima alone survived the ambush, their idealism shattered. These days, their vacant gaze is a perfect disguise, allowing them to gather whispers from those who dismiss them as harmless. The sword is not for training; it is a promise waiting for the one who betrayed them all.
