Ryudai did not have the luxury of being born into a Sanctuary City run by decent human beings trying to reestablish what was civil and peaceful society. Born in a Silent City, which is usually under the control of the Usarian Empire, made up of power-hungry "royalty" or bandits, is under the control of the yakuza clan his family is from. Ryudai yearns to be a worthy member of the clan meant to fight off the Bandits from the Exiled Lands, The Usarian Empire and most importantly, the Ladito family, a group of mafioso, their worst enemy. Though there has not been any fighting in ten years between these two rival crime syndicates. Though his dreams of proving his worth to his yakuza clan crumbles as Ryudai is punished for a murder he never committed. After being banished into the Exiled Lands that is guaranteed a slow and painful death, he's given an offer to join the Ladito Family. Though he finds family and allies in some of the mafioso he once called enemies. He even finds love, but as the mafioso, who still consider him an enemy, threaten to sever the bonds with the few mafioso he considers family, he'll become a monster to protect those bonds. Even if he hurts those he loves in the process.
