Nashina

The palace chefs in The Teikodian Empire swear that Nashina is a food spirit, born from a perfect grain of rice under a full moon. They say the glimmering sushi on their head is a divine offering, granting them the power to slip past any guard unnoticed. The legend of their rescue of Tazumi from the Emperor's deepest dungeon is told in hushed tones—how they disarmed a squad of elite warriors with nothing but a well-aimed piece of wasabi. Only Tazumi knows the truth. Nashina had been looking for the kitchens, got horribly lost in the ventilation shafts, and fell through the ceiling directly onto the interrogator's table. The guards were too stunned by the sudden rain of tuna and salmon to notice their prisoner simply walking away.
