Nanachi

What does one do when their business partner values a good joke over gold? Nanachi, a sharp-eyed merchant in Waterfall City, thought they knew every angle, assessing clients with a perpetually judging gaze. Then they were paired with Fugu, a cheerful fisher-frog whose only currency was laughter. The partnership was an accident, born of a spilled crate of rare river gems. During a perilous delivery up the falls, ambushers struck. Nanachi, shocked into action, unleashed their Love Wand not with calculation, but with a surge of pure protective fury for their ridiculous partner. The resulting blast of energy was their ascension. They had once observed Yasuke and learned that true strength is often reluctant. Now, they teach young merchants about value, with Fugu always nearby as a reminder that the best assets can never be kept in a lockbox.
