“The lightning from his glaive sparks true, the tooth and claw of Shilon offers his loyalty to one.”

-Lao Shen

Biography

Han Yu Shen is the young and loyal general of the entire Shilon Army, who has sworn his life, honor, and blood to Shilon and its people. Being one of the youngest Zodiacs of Shilon, Demigod of the Wolf Han Yu wasn't established until shortly after the Shilon civil war. Instead of being born in a carriage, he roamed the flaming ruins in the form of a wolf pup looking for Admiral Ox Lao Shen, who had been lying unconscious for days after her clash with Dragon Emperor Ren. He licked her blood-covered face clean and escorted her back to the Palace at the Divine Pillar, where he then shapeshifted into human form and revealed himself to be no older than an infant and had been born a zodiac unknowingly within the last year.

 

While suspicions arose, Han Yu was able to tame it with his persistence and loyalty to the Ox Empress and gradually assimilated into the ranks. He devoted all and asked for nothing, referring to himself as a gift from the heavens to aid Empress Lao on her lonesome journey. This oath has taken Han into absolute focus and determination, making him a prime symbol of Shilonese loyalty. However, some consider him to have mistaken honor for the fear of its absence. Blinded by his duties, he will not yield his commitment to Shilon until the day he exhales his last breath. But can an old dog learn all the tricks before it is too late?
