Coat of Arms

"I had set out on a quest of knowledge to southern Japan,  where I ran upon the remenants of a small battle.  As I approached the

bloodstained grounds I saw but one man remaining.  Impressed by his obvious prowess with the Katana, I approached him.  The young man announced himself to be 'The Stork'.   

We soon hit it off, and the Stork told me off his impending journey to mainland China.  Seeing a chance to obtain knowledge of a new land I requested passage on the ship with him.  Little did I know that he could sail a boat about as well as he could fly.  All was not lost though, as we came to rest in the land known as Apokrypha.  Sensing the opportunity for advancement of knowledge and skills..."
