Ronin of Airashi is a developing story primarily taking place on the Japanese island prefecture Okinawa. It follows these two stranded and orphaned children Asami Ugitto and Ayori Kagome who, eventually after months of surviving on their own, stumble upon a damaged shrine deep within forests. There, their lives change forever and their journey takes a turn towards the supernatural.
This story will be told in an animated storyboard format with bits and pieces of animation spread throughout. This will be my most ambitious project.

Also I'm already loving this and I want to see more.
And thank you! I hope to captivate you further as I post more about it!
Also, Okinawa is quite a weird place to set a story about samurais, since the culture there is quite different from that from the rest of the Japanese archipelago, since Okinawa was part of the Ryukyu kingdom, which was different from Japan until the Japanese absorbed the islands centuries ago.
As for the history and culture, the shrine and deity the story is based around had certain "ties" with a couple Japanese mainland travelers , from the shrine's construction in the beginning of the Meiji Restoration and the deity's past influence. I hope the mixing of the two cultures won't be seen as a rude gesture (I have this huge lore I'm currently developing. I can DM the details if you're curious to hear) :)
I'm glad I got a history buff to critique my work here. I'd been doing a bit of research of Japanese and Okinawa culture of my own and would like to hear your thoughts :)
