	In 1582, Kinu and Kane became amateur treasure hunters and came across small [[Isu beacon\|talisman]]s and riddle scrolls about a secret treasure. This led them to come across a large door with [[Isu\|unknown]] markings in southern [[Wakasa]]. Arguing about what glyphs they pressed before, their argument brought the attention of Naoe and her ally [[Yasuke]], who met with them. Naoe soon recognized them as the poachers she fought with in the past and rejected to help them at first. While reminiscing, Kinu developed a sort of infatuation with Naoe, who did not reciprocate the same feelings. Both men soon shared their findings and informed them of a glyph nearby. Afterwards, the door glowed again when Naoe and Yasuke came across a marking nearby. Later, both men then asked Naoe and Yasuke if they can work for them and promised them more scrolls if they could train under them.<ref name="A Puzzlement">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]] — [[Story Drops]]'' – [[A Puzzlement]]</ref>		In 1582, Kinu and Kane became amateur treasure hunters and came across small [[Isu beacon\|talisman]]s and riddle scrolls about a secret treasure.

'''Kinu''' was a [[Japan]]ese ''[[ashigaru]]'' alongside his associate [[Kane]] before they deserted their positions. While traveling across the land together, they later became treasure hunters before meeting [[Fujibayashi Naoe]] and [[Yasuke]], who, after some training, offered them a place at their [[Tomiko's Homestead|home]].

==Biography==
===Early life===
On 6 October 1579, Kinu and [[Kane]] were roaming around in [[Iga]] and came across a vegetable garden of someone's [[Matsu's House|home]]. After stealing some of the crops, they also killed a [[deer]] and harvested its meat while leaving its carcass behind. At their makeshift camp, Kinu and Kane fussed over their meal before they were confronted by a young ''[[Ninja|kunoichi]]''-in-training [[Fujibayashi Naoe]]. While pleading for mercy, they noticed that she only wielded a ''{{Wiki|bokken}}''. Drawing their ''[[katana]]s'', they fought against Naoe, but were outmatched and fled into the woods.<ref name="Wake Up Call">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'' – [[Wake Up Call]]</ref>
