| ~ Kiryu's response to the Aberration's Ultimatum |
Summary[]
Kiryu was a samurai from an obscure island nation and served under a master searching for immortality. One day after retrieving an odd potion for his master by an unsettling stranger, he was forced to fight and kill him after the potion transformed his master into an alien aberration.
He then traveled to a neighboring continent in hopes of finding the person (or thing) responsible for the event. After going all across multiple countries with a group of adventurers, he slowly noticed he was being slowly indoctrinated into a deal with aberrations. He was given an ultimatum. Accept their power and join them, or refuse and suffer. Kiryu agreed to take their power but did so knowing he will use the power they gave him to fight them instead.
