Lore: After the fall of Akitto's father his family lineage was ruined. The reputation of his family was completely tarnished.. His father had achieved the name oni yamaoka and his family had to suffer with that reputation.
Kizans rampage has been told throughout all the villages he went to with his wife. No matter where he went, stories of the rampage of oni yamaoka spread everywhere.
But oddly enough Akito did not blame his father He took his father's words to heart. He believed that the false samurai had ruined the reputation of his father.
But with his injured leg. He couldn't do anything about it.. it still haunted him The death of his father was still looming over her shoulder The feeling of failure.
Akita was so disappointed of himself.
The only people that supported him was his wife and his friend from long ago. The friend that was there whenever he hurt his leg the one that his father had punished severely. But this friend didn't leave his side especially when Akito needed him most At least that's what Akito thought he was here for.
No matter where Akito went the reputation followed him people sneered and confronted him some people threw things at him what his father had done was truly unforgivable in their eyes His father had killed so many people He had ended families ruined lives but to these people Akito only showed apathy. He saw no sympathy for the families of the false samurai. What his father had done was noble in Akito's eyes.
No matter where Akito went his house was always founded by these people. He could never go anywhere He was always found somehow
People would raid his house, People would break his windows and his stuff. On some occasions people even threatened to murder His wife Misako and unborn child if he didn’t leave immediately. Akito was always running from this, but it started to get more and more suspicious how people kept finding out about his address. One day, no one knew who he was, and the next day everyone was turning on him. It was suspicious.
Then he thought about everyone in his life. It couldn't have been Misako. His wife had stayed faithful and loving to him the entire time, she had loved him through the threads of assault and hatred of his family line and she proudly held his last name by his side. she would never betray him like this but then he remembered his friend.
The friend he had kept in contact with wrote letters to his friend every time he was forced to move. Akito to confirm these rumors wrote to his friend that he was going to be moving to a home that was west of the town he was currently living in.
The next day he heard stories about how that house was broken into and everything inside was broken and shattered.
Akito, filled with vengeance, rage and wrath Left Misako alone in the house they had moved to, and confronted his friend In the woods.
Once akitos friend had figured out that he knew he confessed. Every time Akito moved his friend was telling anyone and everyone in the town that he moved to who he was and what his father did. His friend Believed that Akito should suffer for what his father did and the seeming apathy he had for all the lives his father ruined. The Friend Attacked Akito enraged that he has no sympathy for who his father hurt.
But Akito didn't come with a grudge just to cane Akito filled with wrath, anger and frustration, he stabbed the grasscutter that he hid In his arm brace into his friend. His friend was stunned as he staggered back as Akito dragged the Naginata down their friends chest and pushed the friend off once it reached their lower waist and then they fell dead. Akito wiped his Naginata and gave 1 last apathetic look to his father and left him laying there. And he went home hoping that this would be the end of it but with this he felt a new calling to his life, he told Misako of his new calling what he had done and he knew that this was what he had to do.
Misako supported this calling, happy that her husband felt fulfilled and Joyful for the first time in many years. He felt a new purpose, a way to redeem and get vengeance for his father.
Akito and his wife bought a carriage to live in with the understanding their reputation would make it so no living situation was permanent
Every week they would travel and settle in a new town. And every night Akito would Kill anyone who was spreading the stories of his fathers rampage. Anyone who used the Term “Oni Yamaoka” would slaughter them silently in the night with rage.
Soon stories began about those strings of murder. a rumor of a curse, that Oni Yamoka had cursed his name and anyone who spoke it would be struck down by the Avatar of vengeance. This force was called “The Revenant of the Yamokoa”. Akito had silently pursued this new purpose in his life. He felt proud being known as a force of vengeance for his family, he owned the Name ‘The Revenant of the Yamokoa’ proudly. Akito after countless murders he did silently in the shadows until one day his wife got fearful for his actions. Misako pleaded for him to cease this calling he had taken on, asking for him to give up on this anger he had held, for her, and his Child. Akito understood Misako's words and did stop his killings.
But Akitos actions wouldn’t go unpunished. One Afternoon a fire had started at the bottom of his house as he looked out the window at the angry townspeople led by the wife of Akito's ex friend and many faces of wives, husbands and children of the people he's Killed. he knew that this was the end. He wasn't going to get out of this alive.
He led Misako and his 2 year old daughter to The window over top of the garden and held her pleading for her not to let anyone know she knew about his killings. With one final kiss he threw her out of the window. as the oxygen entered the window The room flared up with flames burning him
Misako stared at him screaming with great Sorrow holding her daughter tightly but he was gone.
In the flames as a keto's body was burned.
A deep fog seeming to be lighter than the smoke surrounding him consumed his body. Never to be seen again
