Taki is a old woman in [[Lakewest]] who has acquired a lot of interesting stories and knowledge in her long life, allowing her to give accurate advice backed by a wealth of knowledge and experience. It said that many people came to consult her wisdom. Taki adored Lakewest, even choosing to stay in the town rather than follow her children and grandchildren to [[Two River City]].
Taki was a venerable woman residing in [[Lakewest]], possessing an extensive repertoire of intriguing stories and knowledge amassed over her long life. This wealth of experience enabled her to provide accurate advice, earning her the reputation of being a reliable source of wisdom among the townsfolk, who sought her counsel on numerous occasions.


During the [[Dunan Unification War]], Taki met [[Hero (Suikoden II)|the leader]] of the [[New State Army]]. Sensing it was hard for him to travel all the way to Lakewest every time he wished to talk, she moved to the [[New State Army Headquarters]] in order to more conveniently offer advice. The amount of information she held and the surprising accuracy combined with how up-to-date it was led to rumors that Taki either had something of an information network in place or that she secretly used a crystal ball.
