This might seem like a very random post, but bear with me please! ... I was reading the "biography" of my units and I found this in Chizuru's info:

"A katana-wielding samurai of great strenght...After Chizuru retired from her duties, she married a ninja in the service of her lord and master, giving birth to both a son and daughter" (And it talks about losing her daughter to the shadows)

And Hayate's info says this: "A legitimate successor of the arts of the ninja, and a peerless assasin and spy. Hayate's mother was a katana-wielding samurai of grave demeanor...The feelings of jealousy he haborded against his younger sister...gradually drove her towards the darkness, eventually causing her to flee..."

Like I said, probably nobody cares, but this kind of stuff makes me love this game even more, the characters we use are not just a random guy from X game, they have backstories, they had families, masters, friends...And now they are giving us (Masters from another era) the power to save our own world.
