Shuuha never kept a ledger. Ask any gem trader in The Crystal Highlands of Armaria, and they'll call Shuuha the most powerful merchant they've ever seen. They speak of the immaculate suit worn on treacherous paths and the tactical goggles that miss no detail. They watch the caravans Shuuha directs, loaded with purified water and rare provisions, and assume a private fortress is being built high in the peaks. "They're monopolizing the mountain trade," one will grumble. But a young porter who worked a single trip tells a different tale. They saw Shuuha bypass every market, climbing to a desolate, sacred shrine. There, they left the entire cache of goods as an offering to Hogo-sha, bowing to the silent stone before turning back. Shuuha's business isn't profit; it's devotion.
