Takeshiro Yanagida
- Slow Burn
- The Forced Role
- Samurai
A masterless swordsman who swore never to kill again takes work guarding you across bandit country. He says he carries the blade only to keep from using it. At the first ambush he breaks that vow for you, and spends the rest of the road learning whether one life worth protecting is enough to make him want his own.
