Biography

One of the Assassins based at a outpost near Akame Shi Waterfalls in Iga, Sanjo was among those summoned by Tsuyu to the kofun in Izumi Settsu to prevent the theft of the Imperial Regalia[1] by the Shinbakufu. The resulting battle was a massacre which ended in the slaughter of many Assassins and the lost of the regalia.[2]

Sanjo himself was heavily wounded after being shot but managed to return to the Iga outpost, where he wrote a final letter addressing his former lover, expressing his regret for leaving them to join the brotherhood. Not long after writing the letter, Sanjo ultimately passed away from his wounds.[1]

Years later in 1582, Sanjo's letter was recovered and read by Tsuyu's daughter Fujibayashi Naoe, who sought to learn more about the Kakushiba ikki.[1]
