Yubin Reime
(736-...)
Much can be said about Yubin, just as much as about his older brother—he is a master of the sword and bow, a tactical genius, a strong leader, and a virtuoso musician. Despite this, his reputation in the empire is quite the opposite. Yubin showed great promise and was, in many ways, a direct competitor to Thiar for the throne until he married a commoner from Nihon against his father’s will. This did not end there; a year later, the prince joined the Onryo, which was both surprising and unprecedented. It was surprising because the Onryo, to put it mildly, disliked outsiders, and unprecedented because the prince voluntarily became an enemy of the empire that he might one day inherit. By order of the emperor, Yubin Reime was erased from history, and from that day on, he was to be forgotten as a member of the imperial family.
After all this, only Thiar managed to make contact with Yubin. Yubin visited his older brother willingly and swore that Princess Sayuri was safe and asked him to stop searching. As expected, this did not convince Thiar, nor did it deter him from his path. Instead, he tried to persuade Yubin to return home and ask his father for forgiveness, but received a refusal. When asked “why?!”, Yubin replied that such an empty person as Thiar would never understand.
