The Court Trainer

宮廷師範

They call him The Court Trainer, but within Edo Ball’s walls he’s known as the spark that keeps the Golden Court alive. Once a swift spearman among the Shogun’s warriors, he traded battle for mentorship, turning his focus from victory to mastery.

Each dawn, before the bells ring, he’s already on the bamboo floor, showing the next generation how to breathe through the game. His drills are poetry — movement stitched with purpose, sweat balanced by patience. To him, every step, every pivot, every release is a lesson in presence.

He trains under the watchful eyes of The Court Emperor and The Eternal Shogun, discovering and cultivating new talent for the empire. Each year, he also runs and hosts the grand Edo Ball All-Star Game, gathering the finest warriors from across the land. When the games begin and the crowds erupt, he simply stands at the sideline — smiling quietly, knowing the craft lives on through those he’s shaped.
