Morikage Toshi

Morikage Toshi

Morikage Toshi, also known as the Forest Shadow City, [1] was a Phoenix Clan city in the Bachiatari province [2] with an ancient curse placed upon it. The Morikage Castle was within it.

Timber city

It was located in the Phoenix coastline, [3] and it was the main timber felling city until Ryoko Owari Toshi became more important. [4]

Fall of Morikage Toshi

When the young Dragon bride of Shiba Kojiro took her own life in 782 because of his unloving and callous nature, her mother, the Oracle of Air, cast a powerful curse upon his castle. [1] Soon the vines and trees reached out and reclaimed the castle, rendering it useless. The Phoenix were forced to abandon the castle completely as no dispelling seemed to work. The castle lies vacant, home only to a restless ghost wandering the halls. [5][6] These events had been driven by the Bloodsword Revenge, which had been found and wielded by Kojiro. [7]

Tsuruchi

In 1132 Yoritomo gave Tsuruchi an Akodo Dagger brought by a spy from outside the clan to help him to find the Hidden Emperor. While Tsuruchi followed the Emperor's trails, he was attacked by Goju in the Morikage Forest. [8]

Toturi Discovered

Morikage

The same year Toturi was found shackled and beaten in the ruins of Morikage Castle by Unicorn scouts. The Morikage Forest and castle was filled with apparitions of ghosts and shadows the Naga called The Foul. The truth was revealed that Toturi had been held by the Lying Darkness which was trying to allow the Empire to fall into chaos. The Unicorn, led by Otaku Kamoko bring the weak and sickened Emperor back to Otosan Uchi, igniting a small flame of hope in a dark Empire. [9] [6] Tsuruchi played a vital role in the recovery of Toturi from the Lying Darkness in Morikage Castle. [8] During the rescue, Jama Suru managed to obtain blood from Kamoko for Iuchiban's ritual of the Rain of Blood. [10]

Kolat

The spy should be a kolat minion, because the only lost Akodo Dagger was seen on the hands of Akodo Kage, the uncovered Kolat Master. [11] It was not clear if the kolat were helping the Empire against the Shadow, the opposite, or only playing on both sides.
