SYMBOLS
The Red-crowned crane; a bird native, yet rare, in Izumi's homeland. A delicate creature that symbolizes fortune and longevity. The Wisteria; trees that surrounded the lands Izumi grew up in. Grand and powerful in their presence, they symbolize immortality -- and finally, the Lotus; a fragrant water flower that brings tranquility to the mind. In their beauty, growing in even the murkiest of waters, they symbolize the idea of self-regeneration and rebirth.

To further ensure the pack is protected from any outside threats, wolves of militant strength are gathered together to form an army. The Dynasty's military is led and trained by the Daimyo, and those training for paladin within the military are automatically placed here. There are three official tiers within the Military on a basis of strength and skill, with the first tier being within noble ranking.
(浪人) Rōnin - Tier II of the Army; through training, they have been deemed skilled and agile enough to fight in major battles and help train the Hohei. Usually the most populated rank within the army, as only a few are picked as skilled enough to reach Tier I.
(歩兵) Hohei - Tier III of the Army; the starting rank within the army made up of mostly beginners primarily trusted with small scale things like border patrols as they are still in the initiation phase and require more training.

Academies
For those who wish to learn something new or hone their current knowledge into something far greater, the dynasty offers different academy branches divided into three categories for a given set of skills that represent the balances of the spirit. Each category is taught among its academy members. These ranks are unofficial as they do not affect your standing in the pack and anyone is allowed to join.

Botanic Shores
On the edge of the seaside where sand meets the forest's edge is a flourishing field of painted flowers and berry bushes. The meadow is fragrant with the sweet scents of flowers and small fruit -- a good spot to visit for relaxation, or to gather different seasonal herbs and plants. Just be mindful of the occasional thorn bush.

The Crag
Not every shore is met with sand, as this one seems to zigzag across the edge with eroded rock mounds, sculpted by the water that had been crashing against it for years. Several ledges are lined amongst this rocky shore, making it the perfect destination for stargazing or simply observing the ocean.

Ryūjin's Maw
Enter the Isel's cavern system and you will enter the jaws of the dragon king himself. Ryūjin's maw is a cove-like area surrounded by large walls of rock that circle outwards, cupping a secret piece of sea-side like an open roof cave. Many crabs dwell amongst these usually hidden shores, so watch your step if you don't want to get pinched!

Saltine Springs
Surrounded by rock, a pool of heated ocean water lies dormant near the coast. Wolves may often come here to bathe/groom or simply relax. Whether it be inside the pool, or the surrounding area where the steam comes out its surface -- a nice place to warm up.

Pigeon Mound
A mound of large, smoothed-over sea rocks that strange-looking flightless birds come to rest upon for socializing amongst each other, sunbathing and the sorts. They are loud and often gather in large groups, which makes them quite the reliable prey item on a bad day. If they haven't seen you and decide to slide back into the waters, that is.

Mt. Shizu
In the middle of the dense forests lies an inactive volcano that hasn't erupted in centuries. The only sound released from its height is the sound of smoke that exits its summit -- forever may she stand in quietness, which is what her name entails. (Shizukesa/静けさ = Silent)

Yūrei
Named 'Ghost'/'Haunted' for a reason. The eerie structure sits not too far outland and is forever stuck in time while rotting away at the seams. Overtaken by algae and other dwelling sea creatures, rumor has it that you can hear the whispers of unknown spirits when you wander too close at night.

Rolling Hills
Within the forest lies a large, open plain of rolling hills -- where pink wildflowers give color amongst the green, herds of wild cattle graze and burrowing mammals linger. The area is a hunting hotspot, though it is safer to hunt larger mammals in groups. Male cattle are equipped with large horns and can be quite protective/aggressive when threatened.

Siren's Rock
Siren's Rock is a collection of tide pools that become visible only when the tide goes down, revealing an ecosystem of all sorts of colorful critters and creepy crawlies. When the tide goes up, however, the stars of the show are the rocks themselves, which go out into the ocean in strange bridge-like formations. Alternate image.
