Yarera III
Yarera III was a criminal living in the Lucifenian Republic and the elder brother of Zusco Jr. Kidnapping a young Lemy Abelard in EC 606, he eventually encountered investigator Ayn Anchor. Mistaking the latter as the Père Noël assassin Fifth Pierrot, he entered a brawl with the officer before conceding defeat and fleeing.

Early Life
Born sometime during the 6th century EC, the child was given the name of his father and grandfather. Becoming a thug along with his younger brother, Zusco Jr., Yarera III scrounged to make a living for himself. At some point, he became familiar with Père Noël and its chief assassin, Fifth Pierrot.

Encounter With Pierrot
In EC 606, the brothers hid in a dark alley nearing 1st Block and waited to kidnap a rich aristocrat to sell for a hefty ransom while they returned home from the circus showing at Milanais Theater. After a curious, finely-dressed boy wandered by the alleyway, Yarera grabbed his left shoulder and dragged him into the shadows of the alley, laughing and declaring he got a big shot. While laughing again, Zusco Jr. confirmed he was Senator Julia Abelard's son. As his younger brother mused that the boy would make for a handsome ransom, Yarera III agreed, saying that Père Noël were now stopping in their area otherwise.

He then continued that they were taking up everything and that it was hard for them to get something to eat, stating that the boy would let them get some good alcohol after so long. Soon after, the man pulled Lemy by the arm. Seeing him struggle violently, Yarera told the boy to keep quiet, grabbing the boy's right arm and bringing him towards him. When the Abelard kid insulted his name, Yarera III became angered at the provocation, explaining that he inherited it from his dead grandfather.

He then punched the boy in the cheek, telling him to be quiet. Zusco then chastised Yarera, saying it was bad to harm the hostage. Yarera replied that he knew that, stating that he just wanted to keep him quiet. Commenting that the boy didn't seem to know nor sympathize, Yarera swung up his fist before hearing a voice telling him to get his hands off the child. Yarera's eyes then turned towards a young man further down the alley.

Noticing he was dressed as a clown, Yarera wondered aloud what a pierrot was doing in a place like that. After hearing Zusco's attempt at intimidating the youth, Yarera witnessed his partner lunge at the clown before quickly being slammed to the ground and fainting shortly after. Cursing at him, Yarera moved back as the pierrot took Zusco's knife and started moving towards him.

The clown then told him that he was very busy, and repeated his words earlier, commanding him to release Lemy. Finally recognizing him as Fifth Pierrot, Yarera listened as the pierrot repeated his words a second time before releasing the boy. Taking his unconscious brother's body, Yarera III fled.

Gakusha
Gakusha was a traveling monk living in Jakoku during the ninth century EC. Losing his memory after an accident, the man was rescued by the traveling monk Giyara. Inspired, Gakusha decided to become his apprentice, following him in his travels across Jakoku. In EC 842, he traveled to Enbizaka and learned the gruesome story of local tailor Kayo Sudou, performing funeral rites for the murderess.

Early Life
Gakusha was born a member of the Octo Family in Onigashima, Jakoku sometime during the EC 800s. As a teenager, Gakusha committed numerous debaucheries, causing his family to disown him. At the age of fifteen, he made a pass at a blacksmith's wife, getting his hand burned by the blacksmith as a result.

In EC 838, Gakusha met local tailor Kayo Sudou and the two became close. Pursuing a romance, the two eventually married, with Gakusha living with her at her family's tailor shop at Enbizaka. Following their marriage, he and his wife sired a son, naming him Ren. Sometime after their marriage, Gakusha continued to become a drunkard, staying outside of their home.

Neighborhood Tragedy
Later that year, Gakusha noticed a fire starting at the Freezis trade house on the hill. Learning about the fire, Gakusha rushed home, seeing his wife working. Asking what she was doing, Gakusha was rhetorically asked in response, asked if he could see that she was working. Telling her that there was a fire approaching from the trading house on the hill, Gakusha said they would burn to death if they didn't flee quickly.

Witnessing Kayo prepare for their departure, Gakusha told her they would flee to the bridge on the other side of the hill. Reaching the bridge, Gakusha and his family attempted to cross, held back by the number of people evacuating. He then heard Kayo comment on Oyuka's hairpin shop burning. Having a casual conversation about food, Gakusha eventually boasted that he could sprout wings and take them away, only that his wings were weak. At some point during the fire, the man was separated from his wife, losing his memories before collapsing.

A New Life
Regaining his consciousness, Gakusha was eventually found by the travelling monk Giyara. Inspired, Gakusha decided to become a trainee monk himself. Journeying around Jakoku and performing his various duties, Gakusha began wearing basket over his face at all times in order to hide his burns.

In EC 842, Gakusha came upon Enbizaka, encountering a severed head gibbeted in the town. He then asked the townspeople what crime it had committed. After learning the story of the tailor and the murders she committed, the monk went away wondering why the lovely woman of the story murdered those people. The next day, he approached the severed head again to perform the proper rites for the murderess and found a boy there. Questioning who he was, Gakusha learned that the child had been the one to carry out Kayo's execution. Joining hands with the boy, the monk chanted the rites for the murderess before going on his way.
