Bio:
Shosuro Shinji is a minor actor of modest talent. He performs for minor courts, or smaller estates. He has never managed to procure invitations to major events, however; his talents just aren’t that great. So he must satisfy himself with his small life, supporting his wife, a samurai-ko by the name of Ai, and finding pleasure in the little things.
Or so everyone thinks. In the Scorpion clan, it’s never that simple.
