The Story of Shao Kang

Shao Kang was born in either late 2047 or 2046 BCE, within a year of his father's execution at Shang Chio. Through the combination of his grandfather hiding their presence within his township, and Han Jō assuming his sons had successfully wiped out the Shao line for good, the boy was able to grow up in Yorun in relative safety. Nevertheless, from an early age, his mother and grandfather instructed him on his lineage and birthright as well as teaching him skills he would need to avenge his slaughtered family. Young Shao Kang took to these lessons and proved himself a diligent and capable student while embracing his path towards vengeance.
