Mikoko

Mikoko ducked under a spinning shard of obsidian, the wind from its passage tugging at their rice hat. The wizards watching from their fortress walls expected terror, a desperate scramble.

In The Crystal Highlands of Armaria, this was a test of arcane endurance. But for Mikoko, it was just like navigating a sudden hailstorm—you don't challenge the sky, you find the rhythm in its fury. When they reached the other side, they brushed dust from their haori and turned to the stunned mages with a wide grin. 'Is the path to the market clear now?'
