Mutsuto

What does one do when destiny delivers immense power in the shape of a sandwich? Mutsuto was a blacksmith in The Heart of the Forest, perfectly content with the rhythmic clang of hammer on steel. Their focus was legendary long before their appetite was. They sought perfection in an edge, balance in a hilt, and a quiet life among the amber trees. That ended the day they tried to quench a blade in a glowing puddle left by a passing spirit. The resulting surge of energy didn't just temper the steel; it remade Mutsuto, crowning them with the symbol of cosmic absurdity and an insatiable hunger. Some whisper that Asayaka guides such strange tides of fate, but all Mutsuto knows is that their forge is now a site of pilgrimage. They sigh, adjust the weight on their head, and get back to the anvil, hoping today's visitors don't ask for a bite.
