Makura Arashi had been sitting in his chair not moving much at all for a while, tears were streaming down his face in sorrow. "My lord what is this time?" asked one of the servants that worked at his large manor. She asked him in this manner as there was always something making him sad, usually small things though. Unable to speak to tell the woman he crossed his arms out in front of him as if he were hugging someone but as he looked down there was nothing there. Makura had anything he could ever want or need except for something he could care for himself. He had many animals at the manor but they were always taken care of by one of the servants as they didn't think he was capable of taking care of them himself. "My lord I've already explained this to you, you can't take care of anything by yourself." Hearing her explanation, yet again, he bent over forward in pain, but it wasn't a physical pain but and emotional pain from not having anything to hold. The servant sighed walking away to leave him to wallow in his sorrow. After a few hours of sitting in his chair not doing much of anything he jumped to his feet as screams rang through his ears. He quickly began running in the direction he heard the screams come from with loud thuds coming from each step he took. Reaching the outside of the manor he looked around and saw a group of guys chasing after a girl. Taking up his sword he rushed over to the scene. As he got over the girl wound up slamming into him and falling to the ground, "Ow!" she called out as she hit the ground. Looking up to see this enormous, but not fat, man looming over her she soon became frightened and began to scream again. Ignoring her fear of him he stepped over her blocking the incoming group of thugs. As they drew near he pointed his sword to them stomping the ground with his foot causing it to crack under his weight. "GuUh! Lets get outta here!" one of them called out seeing Makura's display of his strength as they all turned tail and ran in the opposite direction. Looking down at the girl, still screaming in terror, he ignored her screams and wrapped a single arm around her waist and started to carry her off towards the manor.
