Awoken by the dim light of the sun trying to break through to the shadows I realised what I had become. My feathers had blackened and I was now carrying a sword shrouded by darkness. From now on I walked The Path of the Kage,

Rightful heir to the Irotori Flock. Framed by my brother so he could take my place as heir. I tried to proof my innocence to the flock, but my brother predicted my return and bested me once again. Scarred by the many assassination attempts, the betrayal of my trusted brother and the coldness of those I once called friends my kindred spirit got broken. Banned from my homelands I wandered the streets of cities, hiding in the shadows. My birdlike appearance was not looked upon kindly by the humans who populated the lands. The thoughts of revenge and absence of kindness darkened my once so bright spirit.
 
One day, when madness was closest, a pitch-black shadow appeared close to the slums in which I took my refuge. First frightened, but then intrigued, I wandered closer as if the shadow was calling me. As I approached, I heard whispers surrounding me. Surprised I looked around frantically, but there was no soul to be seen.
 
"Emb.. Ce.. e dark.. s". The whispers became louder and I could clearly hear them now. "The Shadows shall guide you!". Standing in the dusk, the whispers felt like a soothing balsam repressing the pain and hatred I felt until this very moment. My mind was at peace.
 
The next weeks I learned trough this guiding voice that the shadows I once used to hide and cower now gave me strength. I fully embraced the darkness in which my life was now shrouded becoming apprentice of the one called "The Reaper". Following his teaching I realised I grew stronger every day. Months passed and the dark places people dread I now call home.
 
More time passed and my affinity to the shadows became greater. "It is time". As soon as the words formed I felt myself being pulled away from the world I was wandering. Quickly after I was met with pitch-black darkness. A shroud of smoke roughly contouring the body of a man towered before me. A low voice as if coming from the depths spoke "You are ready to walk the path of The Kage". Questions arose in my head, but were answered before I could speak them.
 
Awoken by the dim light of the sun trying to break through to the shadows I realised what I had become. My feathers had blackened and I was now carrying a sword shrouded by darkness. From now on I walked The Path of the Kage, servant to the Reaper.
