History

Not a great year for flowers. Not enough wind.

— Zen

Zen was a skilled gardener known for his expertise in landscaping and his ability to cultivate vibrant and colorful flowers. He served as the gardener at Qlon Temple, where his talent for nurturing flowers shone through in the beautiful displays he created.

When approached by the leader of the Toran Liberation Army, Zen willingly agreed to join their cause. However, before joining, he requested specific seeds—Red Flower Seeds, Blue Flower Seeds, and Yellow Flower Seeds—to finish his work at the temple.

After planting the requested seeds, Zen became a member of the Liberation Army. During his time at Toran Castle, he often mentioned that it was not an ideal season for flowers due to a lack of wind. With a gentle and good-natured demeanor, Zen was a reserved individual who preferred working quietly in the background, tending to his flowers with utmost care and tenderness.

Even after the conclusion of the Gate Rune War, Zen remained at Toran Castle, continuing to lend his expertise and passion to create flourishing gardens adorned with blossoming flowers. His presence and efforts contributed to the beauty and ambiance of the castle's surroundings.
