Hailing from an Oyashima farm, Wu Watanabe was never really politically involved- only hearing rumours of the burning of his older siblings Sun and Chesi's city Ves some years ago. His wife took her own life some years ago after years of internal struggle, leaving Wu angry and alone. The local priest gave his wife an unblessed grave, as was customary with suicides, angering Wu further. He has a lot of demons to exorcise before he can openly love again. Now coming into civilization to try and distract himself from his past, he finds himself in the middle of a war between the Pertinaxi loyalists and the newly reformed Orenian Empire- hoping to find some semblance of family again with his relatives in Ves.
