"It's choice - not chance - that determines your destiny." "Grow and become the shinobi I know you can become." "I'm sorry to have left you with this burden. Your brother was too weak and vulnerable to accomplish it. I leave it with you." Hoga Asuki learned from a young age that sometimes in order to make the people around you happy, you must sacrifice your own happiness. Closed off and seemingly indifferent, Asuki is the ace of spades in the Hoga Clan and carries a responsibility many had failed to accomplish before him. As he sets forth on the path to become a shinobi and clan leader, Asuki will learn and mature into the leader the Hoga Clan needs.
