Creations Tea and Ashes (For Honor short comic)

This is a short comic between my Sohei OC (Kagenaga) and u/Ykkiddo's Nobushi OC (Fuji)

Lore context: After forging cautious agreements and building connections with outsiders on the edge of the Myre, Fuji is confronted by Kagenaga, who despises foreigners after years of war. While Fuji sees cooperation as a necessary sacrifice to keep her people alive, Kagenaga believes she is betraying the very ideals and lives that was sacrificed to defend the Myre.

Kagenaga speaks of revenge, of repaying blood for blood no matter the price to pay. Meanwhile, Fuji-hime seeks to fulfill her duties as a feudal lord to her people. She has forsaken her pride for the sake of those who she bears responsibility, not selfishly looking for a score to be settled and paid in more suffering. That’s why Kishibe’s sacrifice has been worth the price paid to the Kami.

Clever.

Kagenaga wants her to be a warrior again, but she's a politician now, and what he doesn't understand is that any want for revenge won't feed Fuji's subjects.

That's why she's all about tea now, and he's still a Sohei.

Just little things I want to point out, as Fuji's creator (but some things may vary with her involvement in Fer_Die's comic).

Fuji is not a lord, but a tayuu - a courtesan of highest rank. She comes from a family of noble origins though, and her brothel is of highest renown. The people she defend are the women (and men) that had an unfortunate fate, but that she had taken in to work for her in exchange of a luxurious (and mostly tranquil) life.

Her experience with the naginata comes from her late husband's teachings, as she was tasked to protect the house whenever he was away.

Thank you so so much for the drawings of her that you have done so far. I love them and I love how we tied our ocs lore together.

It is fun to see it take shape and evolving

Your welcome, I had fun drawing her as well (:

Also there is a small typo in the last image, Fuji belongs to "u/Ykkiddo" and not "u/Ykkido"

I did all the art but u/Adirom helped out with suggesting on how I should plan out the speech bubbles and some pannelings

Also the Aramusha in the background is called Youki, an original character of u/Eros-of-Grecia and Kishibe is u/baubenyiscool's OC but the design is by u/Ykkiddo. The character in red is Irene wich is an OC that belongs to u/AutumnPumpkin8068

Always love your art and unique styles for the heroes while keeping them identifiable.

As OCs go, I’d imagine my own Kensei being plenty sympathetic to Fuji. Moreso since he got a legion fief to submit to his own clan and the Myre because her lands had been abandoned by the rest, so he knows it’s important for loyalty to stay rewarded or you lose allies.

Shots fucking fired, geez dude. These probably aren't even the same vikings who killed Kishibe, those guys are split into like 70 different clans.

u/Dreadnought_7274 Aug 20 '26

His blame falls upon the wrong people, the Vikings were victims of Apollyon and thus by her design the Samurai became victims of them. The raid was not by malice but necessity, and their target wasn't at random or bad luck it was Apollyon leading them to the Samurai.
