History

Hello sonny. Don't ever put melted cheese and beer together in your mouth. —  Taki

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.

Fondly referred to as having a "bag of wisdom," Taki's wisdom was held in high regard. Despite the opportunity to join her sons and grandchildren in Two River City, Taki's deep affection for Lakewest led her to remain in the town, where she cherished her life. In Lakewest, she lived off of her accumulated savings with the help of her family.

During the Dunan Unification War, Taki had an encounter with the leader of the New State Army. He would end up consulting her on several matters. Realizing the inconvenience of the distance between Lakewest and the army's headquarters, she decided to relocate to the New State Army Headquarters, facilitating more convenient access to her counsel.

Taki's vast knowledge, remarkably accurate advice, and its timely nature fueled speculations about the sources of her information. Rumors suggested the existence of an information network or even the secret use of a crystal ball.

Following the conclusion of the war, Taki eventually chose to settle in Two River, where she found contentment living with her daughter's family.
