Even if winter lasts, no matter how long, spring will always come back. All you need is time.

This year, spring was late.

Mirror Shujinko/TR Shujinko

One of the most respected Shaolin masters of the Wu Shi Academy. Shujinko was born in a quiet and peaceful Shaolin village, where he and his friends were educated by the likes of Master Bo’ Rai Cho. Among their teachings, all children including Shujinko were also unwittingly transmitted an eagerness to carry everything in his shoulders, to blame themselves when they failed to act in the help of others as if they had wronged them themselves. A seemingly noble sentiment which can twist a person’s path with enough time and the wrong circumstances…

Shujinko was a particularly good kid, always willing to assist those around him. From helping their friends deal with their bully Mekko to trying his best to return the poor dog Nikko to his owner, all while also training regularly with Master Bo’ Rai Cho until becoming one of his most prominent students. He was very appreciated by many in his village, and yet, he wished to do more, which is why he started a journey of his own until being enough experience to do so.

Shujinko started traveling across the different realms on his own, just to discover more, and, in his young hopeful mind, help their citizens to solve their problems as much as he could in the way. Master Bo’ Rai Cho warned Shujinko that such a journey could end with him feeling disappointed, but respected his desires and assisted him in achieving the means. He even asked Lord Raiden if there were any easy means of traveling Shujinko could use, to which he recommended a place known as the Nexus, giving Shujinko indications where to find said portals in the different realms. When all was ready, Shujinko started his journey.

Shujinko lived many adventures, too many to easily summarize. The then neutrality of the White Lotus regarding the different conflicts of other realms allowed him to meet and learn from people of all sides in said conflicts. He tried to learn from them both fighting abilities and ideals, as different as the latter could be in many cases, with the objective of getting wisdom and maturity from them, enough to reach his own conclusions. The old leaders of the Lin Kuei in Earthrealm, the demon in search of retribution Ashrah, the follower of Chaos Havik, the Seidan Guardsmen Hotaru, Queen Sindel of the Edenian Regime. They are but a few Shujinko managed to convince to teach him, one way or another. But perhaps the most important one was the dragon Onaga.

When Shujinko wandered Outworld as a part of his journey, he ended up finding the walled city of Lei Chen, governed by the ruthless Overlord Zeffeero. Said Overlord had tried to take over Tarkatan villages in order to get their resources, which had caused Tarkatans to retaliate. Shujinko witnessed the Tarkatans approaching, and went to warn the people of the city, especially their ruler. Scared, Zeffeero asked Shujinko to ask for help from the Seidan Guard, believing they were a force he could negotiate with. But Shujinko was no fool, a short time in the city had been enough for him to realize what kind of person Zeffeero was. He instead convinced the Seidan Guard to help the people of Lei Chen overthrow Zeffeero, releasing themselves and preventing the Tarkatans from attacking too.

Soon after the city was released, the new governors chose to ally with Onaga and his alliance, out of fearing the problems they had faced would have weakened them and wishing to have their protection. Onaga himself assisted to meet with them to close the deal, and it was them when he met the young Shujinko, who asked him to train him since he knew how legendary he was. Having already heard that it was thanks to the young man that the city could free itself, he gladly accepted.

During his training, Shujinko was also granted a special ability from Onaga, the capability to copy the abilities from other warriors. He believed that for someone so willing to learn from others, it would be the ideal gift, and it was indeed. Shujinko deeply thanked him for it. Onaga also tried to teach Shujinko some of his world views, and guide him in the right path much like others had done for him long ago. Shujinko actually took his words to heart, at least for the time being, especially Onaga’s wish for everyone to be able to decide by themselves. It was one of the greatest preachings of Lord Raiden and the White Lotus, after all, as tempted as they had been to contradict it multiple times. After learning everything he could, Shujinko would leave to continue with his journey.

The ultimate result of Shujinko’s journey after all the decades he spent performing it was his desillusion. He had already become an old man, and while he had actually managed to assist many across the realms, he had also reached to the conclusion that, in the grand scheme of things, he hadn’t really been able to change things. The conflicts across the realms remained as active and violent as they had been from before he was a little kid in his village, from far before he had even existed. While he was grateful for all the people he had known and everything he had learned, he was also disappointed he was powerless to resolve every single problem those people faced by himself. He decided to go back to his home and become a teacher in the Wu Shi Academy, hoping he could teach young members of the White Lotus to fight to change the state of the realms in the future.

When Lord Raiden’s decision to ally with the Edenian Regime came to his ears, Shujinko gave himself time to reflect about it. He had known the Edenian society, and disagreed with many of their politics, even couldn’t deny the undeniable contradictions with the value of free will the White Lotus had once stood up for. But, at the same time, he couldn’t also deny that the Edenian Regime had the resources to intervene in the path of other realms, (supposedly) end their conflicts, at a high cost. Not to mention that whichever side he chose, he would have to oppose old friends of his he had met during his journey. He was clearly conflicted, something which didn’t go unnoticed by people close to him.

Shujinko was visited by many. Lord Raiden, Master Bo’ Rai Cho, Ashrah, even Queen Sindel, who had seen his potential to become a ‘keeper of peace’ from the days she trained him. They had long exchanges, in which they reminded Shujinko of their ideals, their reasons to fight, and how they needed him, unknowingly using his necessity to do his best to assist others in their favor. It was that what made Shujinko ultimately take his decision.

While always preaching to be as merciful as it’s possible even with his enemies, Shujinko is ultimately another ally of the Edenian Regime alongside the rest of the White Lotus, and currently fighting for their cause, to the disappointment and horror of many friends he had once made. He may even be crucial for a key move of the Regime and its allies, since Lady Cetrion has revealed him they had been searching for powerful weapons known as the Kamidogu to use in their favor, and someone with as much knowledge of the realms as he has is very likely to be of great help in finding them…

Glad I have been able to finish it too, for a late celebration of Deception's 20th anniversary! 🥳🥳🥳

Moi!!! :D Hauskaa! Mäkin oon luukuttanut sitä välillä aika urakalla viimeset pari vuotta (ja viime syksynä tosiaan kirjotin ylös Schatten-repriisin sanat kokonaisuudessaan koska lempibiisi), mut noi äänitteet on kyllä valitettavan puuroisia XD Ja tosiaan joidenki Elisabeth-biisien suomikäännökset on ns. kamalia (mun inhokki on ehdottomasti Nyt kun tanssittaa...), mut samalla oikeestaan aika kiehtovia :D Mun suosikki on varmaan Jo taivas peittyy varjoon (Schatten 1), tykkään kielikuvista siinä.

Sano ehdottomasti jos sulla tulee vastaehdotuksia siihen mitä noissa mun kirjottamissa lyriikoissa on, en oo tosiaankaan varma kaikista ja kiinnostaa miten ne vois tulkita xD

Btw, jos et oo vielä nähny tätä klippiä prologista niin suosittelen katsomaan, kaivoin sen netin syövereistä syksyllä ;) Ja tosiaan kysy ihmeessä jos muut biisit mietityttää, niitä on kiva pohtia!!

Does anyone happen to have the Finnish lyrics for Die Schatten werden länger (Reprise) from Elisabeth? 👀

Mid-holiday post!

Origin of the word: Marimekko

Mari: [ˈmɑ̝ri] (Apparently) From the second name of Armi Ratia (the founder of Marimekko), Maria/Mari. A common Finnish name.

Mekko: [ˈme̞kːo̞] Dress

Conclusion : "Marimekko" means "Mari dress". Even though today Marimekko does a lot more than dresses!
