History:
Moon Jae Shin used to be a Pirate that conducted âbusinessâ off of the Wa coast. He was never cruel to those the crew swindled he simply helped things run smoothly while keeping the casualty count to a minimum.
His captain and fellow crewmates later decided to change their focus from plundering treasure to hunting mermaids and mermen and selling them to the highest bidder. Legend has it that the flesh of a merperson will grant eternal life if consumed. People were willing to pay insane sums of money for merpeople and ultimately immortality. Moon Jae was against the idea. One night the pirates caught Rumil Arato, a merman from Japan Lake, and drug him aboard their ship. Moon saved Rumil and under the cover of night snuck Rumil and himself off of the ship to safety.
Rumil at first didnât trust Moon and was cautious. However it wasnât long before Moonâs good heart and intentions shined through. Rumil decided to trust the human and soon the two became close friends. Moon lived quietly in a small house off of the Lake and Rumil would visit him daily to hear stories. The two became somewhat of an unofficial couple.
At the dawning of the âGreat Sword and Shield Warâ the world was sent into chaos and all nations found themselves at war. Moon Jae Shin was drafted to serve I the Wa militia and Rumil sought shelter in the waters surrounding the Mildorian Kingdom, the safest place to be on the map at the time. The two lovers bided farewell to one another and parted ways. The great war blazed onward and Moon fought valiantly surviving the ordeal. He returned to a quiet life on the outskirts of Wa, in the city of Izumo.
It was only a few years later that he encountered the wizard Faramir Elendil, who had been searching for potential bearers of true runes. Moon was chosen by the True Water Rune to be its bearer and was tested. Moonâs heart proved worthy and he had since bore the True Water Rune, keeping the worldâs element of water in balance. The high priest of Wa at the time sensed the True Water Rune and sought out Moon. He was then placed under Waâs close watch so that no one would abuse the power of the Rune and so that it belonged to Wa. Moon has remained tucked away in Wa ever since. Not even all of the royal family knows of his status as a true rune bearer.
