Hensou's True Identity

Locations/Replays:


Hero: Hensou! Oh, man.
Hero: I went back to the mainland, and… The Oni, they--
Hensou (Samurai Class Trainer): Shh, <Hero>. I know what has transpired.
Hensou (Samurai Class Trainer): And I am afraid I haven't been entirely honest with you…
Hero: Huh? What do you mean?
Hensou (Samurai Class Trainer): My name is not Hensou, <Hero>.
Hero: Whoa.
Hero: You're--
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): Yes. I am Ryukami, the Spirit of the Wind.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): And now I will tell you the last part of my story.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): The warriors of Yokai were unable to defeat the Oni Lord and his army on their own.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): Not even their enchanted weapons were strong enough to prevail.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): I fought by their side, protecting the people I so loved.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): But even I was not enough.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): The Oni Lord wounded me terribly. I could no longer fight.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): But I could give my strength to the people of Yokai.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): So that is what I did. I tore out a piece of my own spirit…
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): …And sent the power of the Wind to my warriors, allowing them to drive the enemy back.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): That spirit lives on in their ancestors even today.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): It imbues my Samurai with the power of the Wind.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): There is even a piece of it in you, <Hero>.
Hero: In me?
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): Yes. I gave it to you when you left this island the first time.
Hero: That's why I could fight the Oni!
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): Exactly.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): I knew something was wrong when you could not defeat the vision I created.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): It was an omen of danger… of the Oni who attacked.
Hero: You knew they were coming! Why didn't you tell me?
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): This was your final test, <Hero>.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): If you had not stayed to help, you would not have earned your enchanted blade.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): But now you have… as I hoped you would.
Hero: I… I don't know what to say.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): Say nothing, <Hero>. You are not the savior of our people.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): But you have earned a place among the ranks of our Samurai.
Ryukami (Spirit of the Wind): And when the Oni return---And they will---You will be called upon to fight.
