HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Ahri was born on Atrisia's colony world of Sakura.... a few years before the first major occurrence of the Sakuran empire forming. She got a chance to come to Atrisia and went to the university of Jar'kai... a massive school that was being built up during the Jishi era and sponsored by the Atrisian princess. She met Junko there and it was... quite a time. Likewise, she was possibly in love but the princess was like water... there and going about herself... unholdable for a long time but she was never cruel about it. Furthermore, she doted on aanyone who she was with... she cared for all of them and most seemed to have become her handmaidens... robed women that were standing aaround her and acting like body doubles if needed Ahri saw one night so that she and Junko could go to one of the old tombs of a former emperor and explore it.

Their tryst was not to last as after a few years of it being on again and off again. Ahri went out for her final dissertation. Taking the time to best study one of the oldest tombs on Atrisia that had been found by Junko related to the Amber Empress and the palace of roses. Deep in the mountains she was escorted and protected by Gan Ou Hanzo a wandering general who aided in the war itself for the emperor. A strange thing but she later learned that while Junko might not be with her she did care and did try and protect her. Sending the general to aid and protect her in her travels helped as Gan Ou largely wandered around regardless but she would answer the call of the royal family should it be needed. She was grateful and would keep with that for the next few years.

The years went on and she went from main site to main site for the Atrisian government and finding her way to a strange and mysterious island. Her research team the largest she had managed to get before but the circumstances of it pointed to a massive continental shift.... but less tectonic activity. Ahri and her team continued working on much of the ruins there... massive temples, caves systems and forests that were old but built on the island that seemed massive. She was happy to be there aand sent her reports as directed until something happened and Shoma Ike and Junko Ike were sent to find her after she and her research team disappeared. Shoma being sent but the secretary of the crown and asking Junko to come and help given her history with Ahri.
