(Still Flashback, but five years later)
[DOIWA]
The news of the blood orchid spread fast across the kingdom that didn't give a shit about life and death. What had started as some baseless rumor about a defiant war general at the northern Doiwa military camp had grown into something else.
A tale of defiance.
A tale of a daredevil, a tale that transcended everything that was for life.
The tale of the blood orchid of Doiwa.
That was a name that many knew and what it stood for, yet one that no one truly understood because of how complex the name had been sifted through rumor mills and chaotic gatherings in taverns and homes.
Some said the blood orchid was a war general who had forfeited his role as the general because the queen Sakura was a bastard and he refused to serve her, despite knowing the risks that came with his defiance.
