The Unnamed Brothel Owner, is one who deals in whispers, secrets, and gossip. They retell the story of the Teacher and the Student.

The Teacher (The Wraith) is a kind-hearted man who teaches his pupils through compassion and kindness, opposed to the other teachers who prefer fear and harshness. The Teacher becomes enamored with one of his pupils, the Student, who just appears one day. They begin to form a relationship in secret, with the Teacher and the Student spending more time together until they kiss under blossom tree. Then, tragedy strikes, for one night the Student slaughters all the fellow pupils. The Teacher confronts the Student but is unable to kill the one he loves, and the Student pierces the Teacher in the heart, allegedly killing him. However, the Teacher didn't die, instead he lived, he is shamed and his name is tarnished. The Shoguns make a deal with the Teacher, to collect 666 souls to be redeemed. The Teacher abandons his old life, and becomes a much more violent and harsher person.

That is the story being told. Our narrator, The Unnamed Brothel Owner, is a sly, mysterious person. Not evil, but definitely not a good person. They deal in information gathered from their courtesans. Trading that information for money, power, or more secrets. They are a devious person, who should have a somewhat sinister undertone. In some parts they have a cool arrogance, like they knows more than they're letting on.

We put them down as middle-aged to young adult. Somewhere in their 30s.

Either male or female for this position, they're either the proprietor or proprietress of the establishment
Either no accent or a slight Asian accent. Please don't over-exaggerate and be offensive.

Wraith comic and backstory: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1697037179 

  • (Curious about the gossip of the new teacher, and impressed with the Teacher's methods)

    Many are harsh and unforgiving, but there is talk of a different kind. A Teacher that shows compassion for his students. One that teaches through kindness rather than cruelty.

  • (Upset with the Student for possibly being an assassin sent to sabotage the Shoguns' plans, and disappointed with the Teacher for allowing his feelings to cloud his judgement)

    Words found in dark places tell that the Student has vanished, that perhaps he was an assassin sent to sabotage the Shoguns’ plans. Perhaps the Teacher could not face that his lover was not who he thought he was, and that his heart led him to failure.

  • (Surprised that the Teacher is alive, and is doubtful that the Teacher will be granted forgiveness)

    The Teacher did not die. They speak that he has returned from the dead, that the wound believed to have pierced his heart had actually missed. He begs at the Shoguns’ feet for forgiveness, but the warlords are not so easily swayed.
