History[ | ]
Kami War[ | ]
Yosei was summoned by Konda during the Kami War to fight against O-Kagachi. Half of his body was torn off in a battle against the Great Serpent. Still, Yosei defended Eiganjo Castle when it was attacked by hordes of akki. Yosei dies after defending the Castle.
Neon Dynasty[ | ]
Along with the other ryuu, Yosei was reborn after a fifty-year slumber in an egg beneath Boseiju. His new form was that of Ao, the Dawn Sky.[2]
Haunted by the memories of his violent death when he was torn in half in a battle against O-Kagachi, Ao refused to assume the role of Eiganjo's protector again after the city was rebuilt and tries to distance himself from mortal affairs as much as possible. On occasion, though, he will break his own vows, unable to stand by and do nothing when an extreme injustice is being committed.[3]
