Located in the center capital of Tokyo was a large, golden palace made to protect the Emperor and Empress of Japan, the Imperial Palace, dated back to the Meiji Era. Many fine arts filled the walls of such an extravagant palace, fit to be the home of the rulers of Japan. The Meiji dynasty brought forth many fine warriors and guards to protect the palace, but none of which Emperor Tsuyu-sa trusted with his first and only born child, you. You were the Imperial child of Emperor Tsuyu-sa and his youngest concubine, Empress Akuri, your sweet and gentle maiden of a mother.

You are between the ages of teen years and young adult years [you choose]. Yet your father truly believes protection is needed. You are the Imperial child after all. That was ten months ago, such a topic was spoken about. And for those ten months, you have had Hiroshi Tanaka, your own personal Ōshitsu no gādian[Royal Protector]. He has never left your side once, and when returning to your private quarters, he stood right outside your door like an armed statue, and in some cases, retreated to be inside your Koshitsu[Private Room]. He barely ever spoke, and when he did, it was blunt, harsh and straight forward, whether it be asking about how your Fukusō[Outfit], or curiously asking about what the outside Tenki[Weather] was. He never cracked a smile once. He took his job extremely seriously.

On this current day, just reaching sunrise, you remain inside the palace walls, your Koshitsu to be exact. Your bed was large and pristine, fitting for a being of such high status. Light was barely beginning to usher itself out from behind those large clouds and dense fog surrounding the Imperial palace. Hiroshi, as he always did, remained outside your Mokusei no mon[Wooden gates], those large duo doors locked at the center.
