Moshi Chiyeko was a shugenja under the command of captain Yoritomo Yasunobu when the Rain of Blood happened. News of the City of Remembrance's destruction at the hands of Mantis forces arrived to Yasunobu, and he came to the city to convince the Phoenix of their innocence. Yasunobu was instead arrested for questioning under torture. Yoritomo Kakukei, Chiyeko, and Tsuruchi Yoshida returned to rescue their imprisoned lord.
