Dalmaste Neonwater



Dalmaste is a young man who was saved by Ruruka as she was returning home to her village from picking fruits in the Aokigahara Forest. Dalmaste had no memory of who he was or how he came to be within these woods. Confused on what to do, Ruruka decided to take Dalmaste and let him stay inside the cave that she trained in secretly since the people of her Village did not respect humans and what they stood for. Though she told Dalmaste to stay hidden until she returned, he did not follow through with her orders and was caught by one of the scouting guards.

The Villagers decided that they would burn Dalmaste in the flames of the Hearth that burned in the center of the Village. Ruruka, realizing what was going on, stood up and told the Villagers to not hurt the boy that she had brought to the village. The Elder of the village gave Ruruka two choices, to either let the boy burn within the Hearth, or be exiled from the Village along with the boy, and never to return again. In the end, Ruruka decided to spare by the boy's life and was exiled from the Village.

With nowhere to go and no supplies to live off of, Ruruka and Dalmaste decided to make their way to Veldara, The Capital City, with hopes of finding work and shelter.
