Yokai Treasures Companion Books: Katsuo
This story shows us the incident that has happened in Katsuo's household about 10 years before the events in Sword & Mirror. I wanted to give you additional insight into Katsuo's mind; what makes him distrustful of women (except his Granny, of course!) and how he got the scar on his back.
It also includes a wedding. Oh, quite a research went into that and I can't be sure it's all accurate. You see, nowadays, a wedding is traditionally shito-style. However, because Katsuo has a pagoda and that's related to buddhism I had to look into buddhist ceremonies. I tried to reflect that the best I could, but I can't be sure it looked the same in the 16th century Japan. Seeing as this is fiction (and fantasy, at that!) I hope you'll give me some leeway of artistic freedom ;)
