Appearance
Current Appearance :
Image
Shiyami has taken on new appearance as of 2nd of Winter 513AV, one less suspicious for traveling. His height has been changed, to 5'2", and his hair colour has been contrasted, becoming ink black. He has kept his long black cloak, and wears a white mask over his face now. His left eye still leaves its visible trail in the air, so generally his left eye is still closed.

Casual Appearance :
Image
(Dont mind the headset...)
Blonde hair, purple colored eyes, with dark blue clothing. This appearance, was of the boy he had killed, when Shiyami had first lost his sanity. He uses this appearance now, as an extra...stage between his perspectives, for the lack of words.

Origina/Human Appearance :
Image
(Closest image I could find that resembled what I had in mind...)
At five feet in height, Shiyami is not the tallest person out there. Well, height isn't really a big problem now that he can just float up to get that few inches one might need. His current appearance as a ghost hasn't really changed much compared to his looks when he was still alive. Disorientated short hair that would make one think a tornado had went through it, with his hair pointing in every direction known. Traditional black clothes and pants, with a black cloak, generally worn by those who frequent the graves. His right eye is still that navy blue color one would see only in the depths of the vast ocean. His skin, lighter then when he was alive, has taken on a more beige than his old light tan. His left eye, is the one part of his current looks, that differed the one he had back in his life. The eye is red, strikingly alike to the color of fresh blood. It isn't partially like the normal eye either. While a normal eye would have the colored iris, and a black lens, the left eye's iris and lens have become one solid mass of red. When this eye is open, it leaves out a glowing red trail of the same shade, hence the title 'Scarlet Eye'.

Insane Appearance :
Image
When Shiyami switches over to the insane personality, has an altered appearance. This is not the affect of some ingenious ability. No, this is the lack of control that his insane side has over his soul mist. His soulmist will become so irregular, covering his entire body, that all one will see is just a shadow, with two red eyes, both leaving the tell tale trails of the Scarlet Eye.


Character Concept
During the first two hundred years, he has nearly lost his sanity on multiple occasions, which always resulting in the death of someone. To counter this, Shiyami has created multiple personality or mindsets within himself, that he can switch between depending on the situation. His main personality is kind but laid-back type. His second is where he is in a 'combat perspective', where he will think as a cold mercenary. There is also the third personality, that he never touches. This, is the personality that holds his insanity. He is afraid that, if he switches to the third personality, he will never be the same again.

Due to the cause of his death, when his left eye is opened, it leaves a red line in the air. This red line lingers for about 10 seconds before fading, and is very visible, whether day or night. The red line is drawn even when he blinks to a different location. Though Shiyami could just keep his left eye closed constantly, it isn't as easy to judge distances correctly, which could be lethal in battle. Therefore, he only opens his left eye when the need arises.

Now, when you have lived for over hundreds of years, you lose interest in many things. Topics that people have pondered for days, like meaning of life, or topics that cause great worry, similar to maybe...the diplomatic relations between cities. These topics have unfortunately become rather repetitive for Shiyami. Once you hear the last five generations of living beings fluster themselves over such problems, you tend to roll your eyes, and plug your years, no? It has gotten to the point where he will pass time by sleeping. When he sleeps, he can end up sleeping for weeks, of not months, as long as nothing disturbs his sleep.

Now, Shiyami also hasn't made many friends, and even among the minuscule amount that he has, known of them are alive anymore. He may have the appearance of a 14 year old, but when you have been alive -or existing...- for more than a century, your vocabulary improves. Now whenever he goes out to associate, he usually gets strange looks from everyone nearby, not for the reason that he is a ghost, but because a 14 year old who can rival or even best a full grown man in the common language is not something one witnesses on a daily basis. It has gotten to the point where he might even respond with a quote or a riddle. Even though Shiyami tries to become friends with others, he would rather befriend a ghost then any other race, due to the fact that ghosts can continue to exist for a very, very, long time.

He is a ghost, so he carries his belongings in a different way. He has a large box, where he stashes everything he needs into. Normally he just floats this box near his back, but sometimes when he is bored, he tends to leave the box on the ground, nudging it slowly alongside him.

Character History
Shiyami was born to a violent man, who's name has been long forgotten. This man was aggressive and volatile to the extreme. He would beat anyone and anything whenever he was in a bad mood. Which pretty much meant every single day, someone got punished. Whether it was a servant, animal, or even family member, no one was safe from his wrath. Not coming as a surprise, this man also had extremely terrible relations with people from nearby households. Soon enough, though this doesn't come at a surprise, it is nonetheless horrific. Something had snapped inside Shiyami's father's mind, and in broad daylight, started slaughtering his entire household in the most inhumane ways a person could think off. Maybe a few that only those who are insane would have known. Before an hour had passed, the entire household was dead, with the father given capital punishment. However, this wasn't the end of the story of Shiyami. Waking up, Shiyami thought that what just happened was just a nightmare, but a quick look around displaced that hope. Blood coated almost every inch of surface around him. Bodies were dismembered and disboweled, and litter the already horrifying scene. Thinking back, Shiyami remembered that as he was coming down the stairs to investigate what the loud commotion was about, he saw his father down the hallway, who turned around, covered in blood, holding a head in his left hand, and a butcher knife in his right. As his father charged towards him, Shiyami told himself to move, however his legs wouldn't respond. Rooted to the spot in fear, Shiyami saw his father swing the knife down, and plunge it into his left eye, killing him instantly.

From his memory of his death, Shiyami concluded that he was a ghost. For some odd reason, that was when he started laughing. After a short while, and getting a hold of himself, Shiyami explored the building. Funny how empty the place felt, without the putter patter of servants running about, and the blood coating the entire place made him feel as if he was in a different house — no, a different world. As he turned the corner, he noticed something out of place. A black, double sided scythe. It wasn't the weapon itself that caught Shiyami's attention. It was the lack of blood on it. Grabbing the scythe, Shiyami placed it onto his back. Even to this day, if you asked him why he decided to take the scythe, he couldn't answer you. Afterwards, Shiyami left the building, he walked around the city, until noticing the body of his father discarded. Unfortunately, he now couldn't rip his father apart alive in revenge, thereby putting Shiyami at a loss for words. Settling for ripping apart the body, and leaving it for the rats to feast upon, Shiyami walked out of the city, terrifying a few citizens here and there by having a person dressed in black, with a red trail following his left eye, float out the hall.

As the years past, Shiyami hasn't really felt the need to move on in the afterlife. When does a man die? When he is shot through the heart? When he has been blown apart? When he has been shredded to bits? No, a man dies when he has been forgotten! With that in mind, Shiyami continues to travel around, exploring strange sights and the like. Until his sanity frayed. He had lost his sanity, when he saw an abusive father dragging his son along the road towards a caravan. Shiyami completely lost it, and floated over, to rip the man apart. However, when one has lost their rational mind, one can not differentiate between friendliest and hostiles. Almost everyone was dead. Even the horses were ripped asunder by his scythe. The few that survived the ordeal, ran screaming for the city, where rumors spread of a demon, or monster. They started to call Shiyami 'Ake Auge', or the Scarlet Eye. When he managed to regain control over his madness, he fled the area, and swore not to approach anyone until you learned to control his madness. Several years later, and the rumors of the Scarlet Eye has dwindled down, Shiyami has managed to create a counter to his insanity. By splitting his personality, he could contain most if not all of said madness in a seperate area of his mind. That personality, he will never touch as long as he can. Of course, living(existing) now two generations after the Scarlet Eye incident, Shiyami has started to grow bored of the average routine of watching the city grow, and watching people come together, and fall apart. Deciding to attempt to obtain a job, Shiyami found his way into larceny. Or more specifically, murdering. Well, it took a week to get the lawless to stop swinging at his head in fear every single time he stepped in. On his first job, he was required to kill the guards surrounding a caravan that was coming in towards the city. Shiyami managed to finish the guards off successfully, and without collateral damage either. He was never paid either, not that Shiyami cared. What was he suppose to do with mizas anyways as a ghost? As these jobs continues, the rumors of the Ake Auge returned. Even though he has gotten bored of larcenies, and quite the job, the rumors did not die down this time. To this very day, they say that the Scarlet Eye murders anyone who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. They also say that he never dies, never ages. That it doesn't matter how many years has past, that he will get you, your grandchildren, and even your great(x5) grandchildren if he feels like. Of course, those are rumors now...right? Every once in awhile, Shiyami went back to murdering trade caravan's guards for the bandits, but otherwise stayed peaceful. He has drifted back towards Syliras, his hometown, to have a nice chat with random guests at the taverns, or float nearby the city, just watching it. He may try new stuff sooner or later, but for now, he is content with just being a normal person, abeit as normal as someone who becomes transparent and floats can be.

Character Relations :
WhoTypeDetails
AmaNPCHe has mixed feelings for this Kelvic. On one hand, she sent him on a quest in the too-familiar Bronze Woods, and on the other hand, the quest was entertaining. He hopes that she will have more requests for the citizens of Syliras soon.
BarnsPCHe doesn't have a clear image of who this Kelvic is, as he barely talked to her.
Fubuki KouriPCA very, very, very dangerous little girl, who is also a fellow spirit. Due to an incident that happened between the two, Shiyami would prefer not to bring Kimi back into the Bronze Woods.
JantyPCWIP
JervisPCWIP
KimiNPCViewed as a daughter and a counter-reactant to his boredom, depending on whether or not she has her ribbon tied or not.
Ninus AurelliusPCFought alongside during a quest, he was intrigued to a degree, by the man's unusual manner of speech.
RoderickPCViewed as a challenge or a game by Shiyami. He does, however, plan to go hunting every once in awhile with this man.
Sei TendoPCShiyami views this Kelvic as someone who he can trust Kimi to play with, without causing harm to either Kimi, or the person that her attention is focused on. Consistently mistake need as a cat.
WadePCFought alongside this man during a quest, he thinks of Wade as a strong man, capable of lifting objects heavier than Shiyami's current limits.

Shiyami Toten

Postby Shiyami on July 16th, 2013, 9:26 pm

Skill Techniques :
Minimum Skill Requirements:Novice
NameTypeDetails
Double BlinkDefensiveThis skill, is one that Shiyami uses to blink himself and Kimi out of danger, though it can be performed with any other ghost. This ability is much more simple and easy to use then one would think. It only requires the second ghost to understand how Double Blink works, and cooperation/trust between the two ghost. Shiyami grabs the second ghost, usually in the form of a hug, before uttering the word 'Double Blink', while leaning ever so slightly, or starting a jump in a direction. This will notify the second ghost, that they need to blink, and in the direction Shiyami was leaning to. Not effected by racial skills.
Severing EdgeOffensive/DefensiveThis ability, though rather simple, is also rather effective.  Requiring only the racial skill "Soulmisting", along with one small blade of any kind. As Shiyami swings his hand around, the blade closely follows his hand, almost hugging it. As he swings the hand, with the first two fingers outstretched, he flicks his wrist a millimeter away from the victim's neck. The blade that was following his hand slices through the neck, and most likely the jugular as well, causing the victim to die from loss of blood. Can also be used as a way to block physical attacks. Improving "Soulmisting" would not do to much except extend duration of the use of "Severing Edge", and more effective control and duration. If looking for the upgraded version, see "Severing Winds", in Expert Category.


Minimum Skill Requirements:Competent
NameTypeDetails
ScytheOffensive/DefensiveThis is more of an all-rounder type of skill, usable for both offense and defense. All this skill does, by using "Soulmisting", swings/spins the scythe that Shiyami has kept over his entire existence. He can either leave it swinging, using it to block any physical attacks he want(with alot of luck however), or walk towards the victim, with the scythe spinning around him, slicing everything in his way. Or, if the enemy is out of his effective range, shoves the scythe, turning it into a lethal projectile. Improving "Soulmisting" allows more effective control, duration, and range over the scythe. This would be in the Novice section, but the weight of a scythe is more then what a novice could handle properly.
Steel SliceOffensiveConversely to the name, this skill has a larger range requirement than the 'Sever'. Using "Soulmisting", Shiyami thrust the blade at the target, like a projectile, so the range of it is higher then his effective control range. However, once it's out of said control range, he can't redirect the blade anymore. Can also be used as a single blade version of the 'Steel Grave'. Improving "Soulmisting" increases effective control range, and accuracy.
Billard ShotOffensive/DefensiveThis is more of a double edged sword. When a projectile is launched at Shiyami, he can shove an object to ricochet the first projectile in a different direction. The problem is that the ricochets can be rather unpredictable, therefore can harm friendlies just as easily as it may harm the enemies. Improving "Soulmisting", will allow Shiyami to have more accuracy, and possibly deduce where the ricochets will occur.
ReloadNoncombatThis is a skill use to fill up Shiyami's box, whether from a fight that just occurred, or to pick up extra weapons that others have sheathed, and place it inside the box, similar to disarming them. Increasing "Soulmisting", allows him to have a farther range of acquiring weapons, as well as the possibility of using it while performing another combat technique


Minimum Skill Requirements:Expert
NameTypeDetails
Mirror ShotOffensive/DefensiveThis is the successor to the "Billard Shot", where Shiyami will target the enemies weapon only, to either damage, destroy, or disarm. However, this skill requires precision beyond Competent. Improving "Soulmisting", will improve accuracy.
Blink BarrageOffensiveRequiring only "Materialization", Shiyami charges towards the target, before attempting to strike with his palms, in only the vital areas. Every time he lands a successful hit, he will blink, and then repeat from a different angle at a different vital. Can be used to transition over into "Reaping Feint". As "Materialization is improved, the mortality rate of this attack is increased as well.
Reaping FeintOffensiveThis skill is one that utilizes one's body to attack, and requires only the racial skill "Materialization". This is where Shiyami has his left hand swinging forward, with the palm outstretched, while his right hand is curved behind his back, at neck level, with about one foot length from his neck. This entire skill requires one to Materialized at the very last moment. Charging like that at the enemy, he has two ways of ending it. He could either A) right before either the enemy's counterattack is about to land, he blinks a short distance. His destination, is right behind the enemy;, where he Materializes; or B) he can just run through them, and Materialize at the last second. That is where the right hand comes into play. Remember how that hand was curved behind his back? While Shiyami has prevented the enemy from backing out, his escape route forward is negated, as right in from of the enemy's neck is the right hand of Shiyami. Pushing his hand into the victim's neck, due to his touch, the victim will soon be killed. Becomes more lethal as "Materialization" increases in level.
TripwireDefensiveThis skill requires only the racial skill "Soulmisting". This skill, is useful in areas that one can not trust their normal senses to detect enemies. Shiyami will lift multiple small objects in the area, as many as possible. Afterwards, he spreads them out as far as possible, without losing connection with said objects, into a circle around him. When an enemy contacts any of the objects, Shiyami will feel the object displaced from the set location he was lightly holding them in. (OOC:using real-world reference, think radar, but several thousand time smaller of a detection range.) Improving involved skill(s) increases number of objects, and a larger range.
ChaffDefensiveThis skill requires only "Soulmisting". Rather simple of a logic, this is basically a mobile wall. Lift multiple objects up, to form a loose wall. As such, this is more effective against physical ranges attacks, similar to arrows. Although still can be effective against physical magic as well, eg: rocks been thrown via reimancy. As "Soulmisting" is improved, the number of objects is increased.
Severing WindsOffensive/DefensiveA skill, requiring one to have at minimum of two blades, and a maximum of nine blades. Requiring the use of "Soulmisting, Shiyami usually just uses two small blades, one per hand, in the same manner as the 'Sever'. Can also have a blade hugging his elbows, feet, , knees, and one at the mouth. With luck, he can block physical attacks. Improving "Soulmisting" will only extend duration and effective control.
HedgehogOffensive/DefensiveThis skill uses a large number of small blades, "Soulmisting", and blinking. Shiyami has a number of blades sticking as close as possible to his body. He might also use 'Sever' at the same time to attack normally, with the blades still hugging his form. As soon as he needs to get out, he shoves all the blades outwards, and blinks almost simultaneously, thereby dodging out, while leaving that final attack in all directions near the victim. As "Soulmisting" is improved, the number of knives increases, and/or the ability to keep the knives loaded for this skill, while performing a different skill/attack at the same time.
Steel GraveOffensiveThis skill is usually requires preparation to avoid detection. By digging out numerous small holes, and hiding a small blade in each hole, Shiyami waits in hiding near the trap, for someone to walk in. Springing the trap by thrusting every blade out of the ground around the victim, stabbing them from bottom up. Conversely, this can be done just by bring out the knives from the box, and thrusting them towards the victim. However, one loses the advantage of surprise if the second option is used.


Minimum Skill Requirements:Master
NameTypeDetails
ToyboxOffensiveThis skill requires "Soulmisting", and a large number of weapons held inside the Large box. By bringing out every weapon from the box, he uses them all, and starts throwing them and/or swinging them at the victim(s), killing them as fast as possible. Simple to understand, hard to survive, and hard to achieve.
Severing HurricaneOffensive/DefensiveThis is the third and final part of the 'Severing' style of attacks. Requiring "Soulmisting", and a large number of small blades, this skill can be used as a defense against projectiles and physical attacks, while shredding anything near him. The blades are constantly spinning around, with Shiyami at the eye of the hurricane. This skill can be used to transition to 'Hedgehog'.
Mobile ArtilleryOffensiveThis skill is normally used against large, stationary targets. By carrying two ballistae bolts slightly above his shoulders, he usually stands still as he shoves those bolts at the target, causing the same amount of damage as a normal ballistae. Only difference, is that Shiyami is much more mobile then a siege engine.
Chain GuardOffensive/DefensiveRequiring coils of chains, along with soulmisting, Shiyami will use the chains, in the same way an octopus might use its tentacles. He can either block with them, are use them as blunt force whips.
Winged DemonOffensive/DeffensiveHe requires access to at least six swords, which are held on his back in a similar method to wings. He can use these wings to block(not recommended...), or attack. Or, if Shiyami is rather bored, he may use it just for show. Mostly, when used for attack, it is more similar to pursuit weapons, where he flies after the swords, that he is contorlling, which in turn, is being used to follow and attack his victim(s).

2. Describe yourself as others typically see you. The feared Scarlet Eye.
3. What is your favorite body feature? Perhaps the eye that gave me my title? I has kept me alive in the minds of the living all these years.
4. How physically fit are you? That is not the type of question a ghost could easily answer, no?
5. How do you typically dress and what is your style? Perhaps as a shadow? I'm liking the idea of all black, with a scythe in his hands, striking fear into others...well, now that I think about it, I'm bored of scaring everyone.

2. Do you have any brothers or sisters? I might have, but even if they lived a long and peaceful life, they are still no longer in this world right now.
3. What is your extended family like? they would probably be all dead right now.
4. Do you consider close friends as important or more/less important than family? Currently, I have no idea. I have no friends, nor family to call my own...

2. Where do you live now? Everywhere and nowhere.
3. If you could live anywhere in Mizahar where would that be? Where ever I can find entertainment and family.

5. Who was your most influential rolemodel? No one was my role model. No one lived long enough for me to pick one.


Education :
1. What sort of education do you have? Four centuries of wandering about, has allowed me to pick up enough knowledge and words to rival, or even best a living adult.
2. Do you like/dislike learning? If it is something new that I can learn, I would pursue it with all my strength!

5. What do you think of drugs and alcohol? Be specific. The living who consume them seem to react in the most unpredictable methods. Rather entertaining to be on the sidelines watching the show.


Likes and Dislikes :
1. What are your hobbies? Watching time past.
2. Do you like to read? If it is something I have never read, yes.
3. What annoys you more than anything else? The boredom. The persistent boredom that seems to never go away.

4. Who or what, if anything, would you die for? If I have a friend that can live as long as I have, I would probably die for them.

Group Situations :
1. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict? Meh, conflicts are entertaining to watch from afar, but annoying to partake in usually.

5. What do you think of others, in general? Depends on who it is. I reserve different views per person.

2. What is your greatest weakness? Also the amount of time I have existed.
3. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? Everything and nothing.
4. Are you generally introverted or extroverted? I lean both ways, depending on the situation.
5. Are you generally organized or messy? I don't have enough belongings to create a mess. however, if you count the carnage I left behind in my previous years, you could say I'm rather messy.

Shiyami Toten

Postby Shiyami on July 24th, 2013, 1:05 am

NPC Acquired in This Thread: Here

Name
Given Name: Kimi
Race
Ghost
(Human before death)
Gender
Female
Age
10 years of life
10 years of existing
Birthday
50th Spring, 493AV
Birthplace
Syliras
Appearance
Current Appearance(Warning, Large Pic) :
Image
Taking on a new look, as of 2nd of Winter 513AV, Kimi now stands at a height of five feet exactly, with long white hair, and a blue dress like robe, with little ribbons to adorn her hair. Her eyes, are no longer chocolate brown, but light blue, like sapphires on a sunny day.

Original/Human Appearance :
Kimi has brought her looks as a human over to her ghostly appearance. She stands at 4'5" has dark brown hair, that goes to the small of her back, with a black ribbon tied near the top of her head. Chocolate colored eyes, she wears plain brown pants and red jacket with a black shirt underneath.


NPC Concept
She can not remember anything during the time when she was alive, and became a ghost on the basis of 'I want to live in whatever way possible'. She may be a ghost, but her attitude makes one think that she is a ghost who believes she didn't die. She has a habit of nibbling on a ghost's soulmist, specifically Shiyami, though the latter doesn't mind. She will tug some part of you, when trying to get attention from Shiyami and friends. And she will continously tug, until you either give her attention, or she gets distracted. The only real basic facts that Kimi and Shiyami both knew about, was that she was ten years old at death, is a girl,and previously human. Her birthday, name, and birthplace were given to her by Shiyami. Learning the split personality trait from Shiyami, she acts like a ten year old girl normally, but when she takes off the ribbon from her hair, she talks and thinks as a 20 year old. Tying the ribbon back on reverts her personality. Is viewed by Shiyami as a daughter.

NPC History
Kimi was the daughter of a trader who was the target of a group of bandits. Now normally the four guards are enough to ward off any small skirmish, however, one does not usually expect a flying scythe to attack in conjunction with the bandits. In a disarray, the guards were killed off, and the bandits attacked the caravan. The trader had with him his daughter and wife, who could do nothing expect clung together as the bandits raided the cargo. In rage, the trader tried to attack the bandits, but what can one untrained man do to several bandits armed with weapons? The bandits killed the daughter and wife, and broke the man's limbs, before going back to the cargo. Shiyami, angered at the bandits getting out of hand, turned his wrath upon them, utterly slaughtering them. Turning towards the trader, the trader asked to be killed by his blade, rather then by animal. Complying, Shiyami gave the man a quick and painless death. As he was about to walk away from the carnage, he felt something tug his leg. Turning around, he sees a young girl, who had become a ghost. The girl could not remember anything from her life. Who she was, where she's from, or even her own name, has been forgotten. Only thing she remembered was that her tenth birthday had passed not to long ago. Shiyami, feeling guilty for indirectly assisting in her death, decided to take the girl with him on his travels. Naming her Kimi, and since she believes her age is ten, her death was on the 50th of Spring, that became her birthday. Also, because the closest city to her deathplace was Syliras, he gave her that as a birthplace.

Shiyami Toten

Postby Shiyami on August 15th, 2013, 5:24 am

NPC Acquired in This Thread: WIP

Name
Kichijou Inei
Race
Ghost
(Human before death)
Gender
Female
Age
8 years of life
0 years of existing
Birthday
15th Fall, 505AV
Birthplace
Sunberth
Appearance
Current/Human Appearance(Warning: Large Pic) :
Image
Short height of 4'5", with long purple hair with a large red bow tied to the back, and bright gold, gem like eyes. As a ghost, she does not physically wear her clothes, but the 'clothes' that she 'wears' is a red sleeveless dress, under which is a white, long sleeve shirt.


NPC Concept
Having been mutilated, and left for dead, along with the death of her parents, is quite the traumatic experience for Kichi. This, combined with the personality and mindset of a child, can cause quite the number of problems. She will say the first thing that goes through her mind, whether it be a compliment, or an insult, if not restrained. Unlike Shiyami and Kimi, Kichi truly is a child, both appearance and mentality.

NPC History
Kichijou Inei was born in the not-so-sunny Sunberth, to her two parents, who's names she has completely disregarded now, and never discloses. Her years of life were quite chaotic, as her mother died of illness while Kichi's father was an incompetent thief, who tried to steal everyone's change and merchandise, not to support his family, but himself. However, her life took a dive, as her father apparently had gotten caught once again, but this time by someone with more anger then the last. The man decided to barge into their small abode, and assaulted the father with his fists into the face. The father had pleaded for his life, telling the man to do whatever he wants to his daughter, but to spare him, the man decided to do both. Harm the daughter, and harm the father right afterwards. The faster was tied up, and forced to watch, as the man took up his dagger, before attacking Kichi, and cutting off her legs. Turning his attention on the father afterwards, who was sheet white from listening to the screams of pain from his daughter, the father was utterly beaten, until he was at deaths door.

The man however, was killed by his own dagger, via soulmist projection from Shiyami. He wrote off the father as basically dead, but Kichi still had life left, abeit one as a cripple. She was given a choice, whether to choose to follow her father to death, or follow her life, she surprised Shiyami by choosing to go with him. Of course, Shiyami, remembering an occasion similar as such, told Kichi to close her eyes, before he gave her a quick death. She woke up afterwards, in the same place she died, and learned she became a ghost. Soon afterwards, with no place to go, she follows Shiyami.
