[edit] Weapons
[edit] Ugetsu Kageuchi
A hidden Iaito Iai sword concealed in the handle of an oil paper parasol, similar to shikomizue or shirasaya styles. Nothing is known about this weapon, but it is speculated to be a gift from Setsuka's master to her. Ugetsu Kageuchi, when directly translated, means "cormorant moon, darkness inside". Iaido is easily confused with the sword style of Battōjutsu, but Iaido concerns itself primarily with the drawing, cutting and re-sheathing of the sword, while battou-jutsu focuses only on cutting technique.
[edit] Stages
[edit] Story
The girl's appearance revealed she was not a native of Japan, as she had pale, milky-white skin, glossy black hair, a chiseled face and deep blue eyes. Due to this, she was often shunned and viewed with disdain by others. So, without a family to turn to and exposed to such hate and violence, she finally ran away from her home. Young and alone, she wandered to a city where a man took her in, and named her Setsuka (Snow Flower). Time passed, and Setsuka grew into a beautiful woman.
Her caretaker worked as a bodyguard in the region, and taught Setsuka her fighting technique while she was in his care, which grew more intense after he was defeated in a duel, though at the same time, he showered her with an overwhelming amount love, even buying her an elegant long-sleeved kimono. As she blushed under the man's smile, Setsuka's feelings for him grew stronger than ever. It was not fondness as a father nor reverence as her master. It would not be until after his death that she would come to recognize those feelings as love.
Setsuka recalled the words he had spoken on his deathbed. .."I did not teach you this art for the purpose of revenge. ..One who lives by the sword harbors no regret." Before dying, he told her his enemy's name: Heishiro Mitsurugi. Despite her master's words, with undying love in her heart, Setsuka went on a lone journey with a target in mind: a wandering swordsman who challenged swordsmen throughout the land, who had crossed the seas search of a swordsman named Nightmare. With few clues, she decided to track down Nightmare, believing it would lead her to Mitsurugi.
