History

Born into the Shrie, Kino was groomed from an early age for work outside the family caravan. No one could have guessed at such a young age that Kino would rise so high as to be a Sid'Shrie Negotiator, but his parents always saw something more for him than another laze-about the caravan. He was tutored more thoroughly than some Shpou which helped cultivate a sense of wanderlust. Kino wanted to travel and he learned, early on, that the best way to accomplish this would be to work for the Financier as a Negotiator.

It would be during one of the outings to meet a tutor in a large city that he’d meet Denetanorishon. It was by accident, really. Dene was going through his own training, meant to practice blending in and observing. It was on such mission that Kino noticed Dene, when he was trying not to be noticed, and the quiet, passive Drahinuaw had no idea what to do when Kino approached him. Kino, being the cheery, chatty person he was didn’t exactly know why he was drawn to Dene but he didn’t question it either. He didn’t let the other vnou politely excuse himself because of that unnatural attraction – what nearly every vnou would recognize as the possibility for compatibility and thus a Connection. While Kino wasn’t the sort who believed in soul mates, he was, and still is, a vnou who gives into his impulses.

This pursuit led to a heated confrontation, setting Dene off balance in a way he hadn’t been before. Kino would ruin two other such missions before Dene would eventually track the other vnou down, to learn more about the one who wouldn’t leave him alone. It would lead to Dene sneaking into the Shrie caravan, into Kino’s room to question him, and ultimately the pair Connecting.

This accident was kept between the two of them for a couple of months before Dene felt compelled to tell his teacher – after which Kino got to meet more Drahinuaw and their arrangement was set up. Dene would remain with him and continue his training but Kino’s family was not to know just who Dene was.

Dene’s position and training as a Drahinuaw Nuus would help propel Kino’s own career until he eventually had the freedom that came with the Negotiator position.
