Ametar. The one and only continent on the planet. All of the continents which were Draumar, the continent of the desert, Xiu the continent of swords and martial arts, Glehax, the continent of ice and Drozan, the continent of magic was all suddenly merged into one big continent. In the middle is a big, industrialized country called Zlargend. Zlargend is divided into 5 different nations. Each nation's weather varies. The Center of Zlargend is Creata. North of Creata is Qrimle, a nation surrounded by snow, mountains and dangerous hazards. East of Creata is Xous, filled with samurai and martial artists. South exists Clout, the biggest industrialized country. West of Creata is Ishori, country of heatiness.

Enter Otagi Kazusane, the fiercest samurai in Xous. He had scars all over his face, the same angry terrifying face every second. He was the father of 5 children, that number soon approaching 6.

All of his children are from different women in Xous. No one dared to touch him because of the power he has. His name is known in nations like Ishori, the other side of the country.

Her face was all red, sweating and moaning. Sou Kichi was about to have her first child. She was 19 while Otagi was 96. He was standing looking out from his window. It was quiet rain outside, Sou was screaming and moaning from the pain she was going through.

Takigawa Chikasuda was the wizard Otagi hired. Magic is a strong fighting style in Ametar. Wizards, witches, curses and all of that exist. Seeing into the future, slowing down time everything is believed and is used. Takigawa was hired by Otagi to look into his child's future.

Otagi had only one goal in his life, which was to have one child to kill him after becoming the strongest samurai. Of course, Otagi knew that no one would be able to kill him, he knew he would have better luck with making children. He knew that having one child was not enough, so he made 5 children to assure at least one child will kill him.

The only reason he wants to get killed is his contract his parents with the demons in hell, to make him an immortal being in return for their land. The reason is still unknown, however Otagi wants to end his life, trying multiple of times to die and slowly losing hope for his life. It was Takigawa that had to decide if the new child's soul was to be sold or kept, depending if it will have a strong future.

When looking into its future when it was born, Takigawa made a scream of terror when doing it. He was scared that he didn't want to see him any more, so he lied. He lied even though he was not allowed to do so, he lied for his own good.

''Your majesty, the child's future is to become a farmer'' he said while stuttering.

''TAKE HIM AWAY, far away and sell his soul to his other siblings'' Otagi said and walked away.

With panic Takigawa took away the child from Sou's hands. She didn't have the energy to get up, but she had the energy to cry, and she very well did. The same night several people in Xou reported that they saw strange lights going in different directions.

As to what happened with Otagi, he left the house where his child was born and was never seen again. The last person to know where he went was west, which was seen by Takigawa as he was putting the baby in a basket on a river.

The river goes all the way from north of Xou to south. There is another big river that goes from north-west to south-east, making a cross between the two rivers. Rumors quickly spread about the baby, the disappearance of the strongest samurai in the world and the 5 light beams that night.

Days later a shop owner had found a baby in a basket flowing down the river where he was washing his face. He didn't think much of it and took the baby to his house letting his wife take care of him, he had no idea of the news. The baby had reached east of Xou.

As soon news spread to him, he made sure that no one knew it was the great samurai's baby he had taken. Years went by and the child had grown up to 17, a protective and helpful samurai who has an unyielding lifeless expression, never letting emotions (of which he has none) show, The shop owner's wife had died during the child's 17-year life and he too was dying, so as a last effort of helping out the child, he had explained to him about the birth, the samurai and the basket, everything he needed to know.
