Bakos Family

The Bakos Family originally lived within the Continent of Atamara, within the realm of Tara. They have always had a lower status than those of the other Families within Tara, and have tried to prove themselves to everyone.

Siblings

Kurohyou: Joined the army of Tara at the age of 19 years. He is younger brother to Hei Bakos. Before he set off to the capital to enlist, Hei asked that he reconsidered. He knew that she was concerned for her younger brother. He bid his family farewell, and went to the capital. As he went through the hardships of training at the barracks, he became fairly good with a sword and developed efficient leadership skills. Once he left the barracks, he was sent into battle, and since then has been loyal to the realm of Tara and proving himself to be a essential asset to both comrads and family.

Hei: Elder sister to Kurohyou. She left her family at the age of 20 and went to the realm of Sandalak, within the war-striken South-East continent. She decided that she could gain some experience in battle, just to prove her younger, more arrogant brother, that she has better skills than he does. She had noticed that once she entered the realm of Sandalak, a few of the people noticed that some of her relatives, Datarian and Sonma, had been banned. With that stereotype in mind, Hei has to work twice as hard in order to prove to those who deny her trust, that she is a loyalist to the realm. Even though Hei seems loyal and beautiful on the outside, her psychological will is what many TL's may find scary. Whenever Hei recruits new men, she always seems to develop a relationship with them. Once in battle, they stay by eachothers side until the end. Afterwards, though, when Hei notices that all of her men have been annihilated, she "blacks-out." (In other words she's in so depressed and saddened, that she snaps and goes into a murderous state with her sword.) Also, besides drinking the finest wine Sandalak offers, she's very dangerous on the battlefield with a sword and bow.

Departed Family Members

Datarian: Cousin to Kurohyou and Hei, Datarian was considered the 'rebel of the family. Feeling that he could do better somewhere else other than Tara, he decides to set off. He decides to enter the realm of the Ash Sea Islands. Once entering, he notices that he was welcomed with a sense of hostility. He ignores it and decided to go to the towns tavern. Once entering, he notices that a group of men are in a deep discussion. He decides to eavesdrop. He finds out that Tara and ASI are enemies at this point, and any family member of Tara entering ASI should be killed on site. Upon hearing this, Datarian decides to leave before something bad happens. He tried to escape ASI and headed towards the Cagilan Empire, knowing that if he were to return to Tara, it would show that he was cowardly and didn't want to make that impression. As he enters the Cagilan Empire, Dataraian is attaacked by some troopleaders, under the impression that he was attacking them. He barely escapes the battle. He realizes now that it is futile to enter any other realm, so he decides to unsheath his sword, points at gut, and then plunges it into his stomach, thus dying by committing seppuku.

• Datarian was also the only family member with a psychological breakdown. He was considered unstable when he joined ASI, so his family members decided that his suicide was an act of insanity.

Sonma: Son to Alebad merchant, Toren Bakos. Sonma decided to serve his realm, and joined Alebad's military. He had spent the past couple month's serving his realm proud. The turning point in his career, he was given the order to fallback to the capital to refit. He turned to his geographical navigator for advice. He gave him the shortest route possible. However, by the time Sonma realized that his navigator sent him into Lukon territory, an infiltrator attacked Sonma. After healing for a couple of days, when Sonma gets back into his homeland, he gets a notice saying that he is banned. He knows that he couldn't get banned for his first offense, so he thought that he could win this case. In the long run, the courts figured that he was in the realm for about 100 days and he should have known better. Upon hearing this, he plans to join the realm of Alowca, however, their king thought that an offense to their allies was offense to them. So Sonma was stuck in between. In the end, he enters a dark forest, and enters the closest stream. He kneels down, and begins to unsheath his sword. He figures no one will trust him anymore, so he decides to rid himself of the world and commits seppuku. With his dead body in the stream, his body is clean of what tainted blood he had.

• Even though many don't remember him, Sonma's family members are determined to make sure that his death was not pointless. They are discussing how the judicial system banned him for his first mistake. Yet many of his cousins are blaming the Alebad courts for their cousins death.
